Cardiovascular deaths among Alaskan Natives, 1980-86.

J P Middaugh

Section of Epidemiology, Department of Health and Social Services, State of Alaska, Anchorage 99524-0249.

Average annual, age-adjusted death rates from cardiovascular diseases and atherosclerosis from 1980-86 among Alaskan Natives were lower than rates among other Alaskans (162.0 vs 242.1; RR = 0.67), while death rates from other causes were higher (954.4 vs 618.6; RR = 1.54). These suggest that Alaskan Natives have less cardiovascular disease than other populations. Additional research on the role of marine omega-3 fatty acids is needed.
