Comparisons of atherosclerotic lesions in 25- to 44-year-old men from Tokyo, Japan and New Orleans, Louisiana, by age and cause of death, show significantly more extensive involvement with raised lesions in the coronary arteries and abdominal aorta of black and white men from New Orleans than in men from Tokyo. New Orleans white men have approximately 3-fold the raised lesion intimal surface involvement of their Japanese counterparts in both the aorta and coronary arteries. These findings suggest the need for more extensive and detailed comparisons of atherosclerotic lesions to provide the background information necessary for effective preventive efforts in these two industrialized, technically advanced societies.
对来自日本东京和美国路易斯安那州新奥尔良市25至44岁男性的动脉粥样硬化病变，按年龄和死因进行比较，结果显示，新奥尔良市的黑人和白人男性冠状动脉和腹主动脉中出现隆起病变的情况，比东京男性更为广泛。新奥尔良市白人男性在主动脉和冠状动脉中隆起病变的内膜表面累及程度约为日本男性的3倍。这些发现表明，有必要对动脉粥样硬化病变进行更广泛、更详细的比较，以便为这两个工业化、技术先进的社会开展有效预防工作提供必要的背景信息。
