Hypertension was a definite factor in causing coronary occlusion among 100 women, but did not appear to be a factor among 500 men in a study of patients under 65 years of age.
Observational (n=600)
Coronary occlusion (n=600)
Hypertension
Coronary disease and occlusion
The problem of the relationship between hypertension and coronary occlusion has been re-examined. Using newly established limits of hypertension, 600 consecutive private patients with coronary occlusion—500 men and 100 women—all under 65 years of age, were studied. Hypertension did not appear to be a factor in producing coronary disease and occlusion among men, but was a definite factor in its causation among women. The possible relation of the serum cholesterol, the S f 12-20 lipoprotein fraction, and the sex hormones to atherosclerosis and hypertension is discussed.

Arthur M. Mastér (Sat,) conducted a observational in Coronary occlusion (n=600). Hypertension was evaluated on Coronary disease and occlusion. Hypertension was a definite factor in causing coronary occlusion among 100 women, but did not appear to be a factor among 500 men in a study of patients under 65 years of age.
