Two groups of patients operated on because of cataract were compared: 106 patients from Poland and 103 patients from Norway. Mean age in the Polish group was 60 years and in the Norwegian 76 years. To explain the difference in age at operation the incidence of some cataract risk factors--diabetes, myopia, rural residence, outdoor occupation, cataract in family, steroid therapy, smoking and alcohol intake--were evaluated. Significant differences between these two groups were found only for rural residence, alcohol intake and cigarette smoking. The author suggests another possible factor causing earlier cataract formation among Polish patients.
106名来自波兰的患者和103名来自挪威的患者。波兰组的平均年龄为60岁，挪威组为76岁。为了解释手术年龄的差异，对一些白内障危险因素的发生率进行了评估，这些因素包括糖尿病、近视、农村居住、户外工作、家族性白内障、类固醇治疗、吸烟和饮酒。两组之间仅在农村居住、饮酒和吸烟方面存在显著差异。作者提出了另一个可能导致波兰患者白内障形成较早的因素。
