Description
Aortic calcification was examined by routine chest film and abdominal lateral film on 639 cases in which glucose tolerance test was made. Incidence of aortic calcification in non-hypertensive and non-diabetic cases was 1.9% on those of 40-49 years of age, 9.1% on those of 50-59 years of age and 27.9% on those of 60-69 years of age; that in hypertensive cases was 16.7% on those of 40-49 years of age, 36.4% on those of 50-59 years of age and 50.0% on those of 60-69 years of age; and that in diabetic cases was 0% on those of 40-49 years of age, 42.9% on those of 50-59 years of age and 47.1% on those of 60-69 years of age. These results indicate that the aortic calcification develops about 10 years earlier in hypertensive or diabetic cases than in non-hypertensive and non-diabetic cases.<br>Incidence of hypertension or diabetes was about the same in cases with calcification only in aortic arch as in cases without aortic calcification. However, the incidence of hypertension was significantly higher in cases with calcification in both aortic arch and abdominal aorta than in those without aortic calcification. The incidence of diabetes was also significantly higher in cases with calcification of abdominal aorta than in those without aortic calcification.
