Abstract

Blood pressure levels were examined with regard to church attendance patterns in a group of white male heads of households who appeared in the 1967-1969 follow-up examination of the Evans County Cardiovascular Epidemiologic Study. A consistent pattern of lower systolic and diastolic blood pressures among frequent church attenders was found compared to that of infrequent attenders which was not due to the effects of age, obesity, cigarette smoking, or socioeconomic status.

摘要

在埃文斯县心血管病流行病学研究1967 - 1969年随访检查中出现的一组白人男性户主中，研究了血压水平与参加教会活动模式之间的关系。结果发现，与不常参加教会活动的人相比，经常参加教会活动的人收缩压和舒张压持续较低，这并非年龄、肥胖、吸烟或社会经济地位影响所致。
