Adult male mortality has turned sharply upward in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. Excluding the German Democratic Republic, for which data are not available, agestandardized death rates for men aged 40 to 69 years increased an average of 12 percent from the early 1960s to the mid-1970s. These secular trends were associated with consistent economic growth. At least for adult men, this period of social development has led to a marked deterioration in health.
在东欧和苏联,成年男性死亡率急剧上升。除了无法获取数据的德意志民主共和国,40至69岁男性的年龄标准化死亡率从20世纪60年代初到70年代中期平均上升了12%。这些长期趋势与持续的经济增长相关。至少对成年男性来说,这一社会发展时期导致了健康状况的显著恶化。
