Abstract:
Variations in mortality in Japan for cohorts born during the period 1927-1932 are analyzed and compared. "Abnormal trends in mortalities...were clearly observed among males, starting at [the] age of 35...for all causes and many of the main chronic degenerative diseases.... Susceptibilities for those diseases might have been induced by poor nutritional conditions [that] prevailed...due to the social and economic chaos just after the World War II." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
