Since the cardiovascular disease mortality is higher, life expectancy shorter, and socioeconomic conditions lower for black persons compared to the majority population, speculation arises as to the possible role of distribution of health resources for this segment of the population. Data from the City of Los Angeles, collected by health districts allowing the parallel use of census tract data, confirm that deaths caused by ischemic heart disease occur at a lower age in blacks and that a dramatic fall in these rates (which are lower than for the majority population) has not occurred during the 1970-1979 period. Observations on some relevant factors and suggestions for further monitoring of health care needs and resources are offered.
由于与多数人群相比，黑人的心血管疾病死亡率更高、预期寿命更短且社会经济状况更低，因此有人猜测卫生资源分配对这部分人群可能产生的作用。洛杉矶市的数据由卫生区收集，并允许同时使用普查区数据，这些数据证实，缺血性心脏病导致的死亡在黑人中发生的年龄更低，而且在1970 - 1979年期间，这些死亡率（低于多数人群）并未出现大幅下降。本文还提供了一些相关因素的观察结果以及对进一步监测医疗保健需求和资源的建议。
