Mortality from all causes as well as from the great groups of cardiovascular diseases for the residents of the city of S.Paulo, Brazil, of the ages-group 40-69, for the years 1970 to 1983, has been analysed by means of the specific death rates. During this period a statistically significant decline was observed (28% on the average for ischemic heart diseases and 16% for cerebrovascular diseases). The death rates for the group 40-69 years old for both sexes were age-standardized and compared with those of 27 industrialized countries. The S.Paulo standardized death rates ranked almost always very high in the comparisons.Downloads
