dc.description.abstract | A survey of coronary disease has been carried out in a sample of men aged 35-74 living in Staveley, United Kingdom. The prevalence of cardiac pain based on standard questions and the frequency of certain electrocardiographic abnormalities was compared in miners and exminers, foundry and exfoundry workers, mixed dust and other exposure groups, and men who had never worked in dust or fumes. The findings have been compared with a similar survey conducted in three communities in Marion County, West Virginia, United States.No striking occupational differences were found, though the prevalence of probable cardiac pain was slightly less in miners and exminers than in the other occupational groups. The prevalence of cardiac pain was twice as high in the United States as in the United Kingdom population. T wave inversion and left complete bundle-branch block occurred more frequently in the U.S. group. But abnormal Q waves, flat T waves, ST depression and other E.C.G. changes were equally common in each country. The American men were nearly 5 cm taller and 5 kg heavier than the British men.Of the etiological factors examined, weight and smoking were associated to a small amount with coronary disease. But the most striking association was with blood pressure. Systolic blood pressure was roughly 20 mm Hg higher and diastolic blood pressure 10 mm Hg higher in the coronary compared with the other group. | en_US |
