In our series of 37 patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, a larger than expected incidence of Americans of Italian and Jewish lineage was found, with 51% of Italian and 38% of Jewish background. Although a predominance of these two groups has been clearly shown previously, this may be the highest percentage of any series. In addition, 12, or 32%, of the patients were found to have concurrent diabetes mellitus. This association has been observed previously, but is not generally appreciated.
在我们的37例卡波西肉瘤患者系列中，发现意大利和犹太血统的美国人发病率高于预期，其中意大利背景的占51%，犹太背景的占38%。尽管此前已清楚显示这两组人群占主导地位，但这可能是所有系列中比例最高的。此外，发现12例患者（占32%）同时患有糖尿病。这种关联此前已被观察到，但尚未得到普遍认识。
