In Finland the mortality from ischemic heart disease is highest in North Karelia and lowest in Southwest Finland. In this study the consumption of coffee has been measured from the total sales in the different areas of Finland to see if it correlates with the mortality from heart disease. North Karelia had higher coffee sales per inhabitant than Southwest Finland. This finding reinforces the view that carefully controlled dietary studies are needed to establish the role of coffee in the mortality from ischemic heart disease.
在芬兰，缺血性心脏病死亡率在北卡累利阿最高，在芬兰西南部最低。在本研究中，通过芬兰不同地区的咖啡总销量来衡量咖啡消费量，以查看其是否与心脏病死亡率相关。北卡累利阿的人均咖啡销量高于芬兰西南部。这一发现强化了以下观点，即需要进行严格控制的饮食研究来确定咖啡在缺血性心脏病死亡率中的作用。
