Zusammenfassung:To clarify the risk factors of CVD deaths in rural areas in Jiangxi Province, China, a cohort study was carried out from September 1 through December 31, 2000 involving 50, 252 participants aged 40 years or older in 4 counties. Among the 3, 429 deaths, 671 cases (398 males and 273 females) died of CUD. In addition, excluding 183 cases with a previous history of CVD, 632 CUD deaths out of 50, 469 subjects were analyzed using Cox proportional hazard models. The multivariate hazard ratio {HR} for CUD mortality significantly increased in parallel with age, blood pressure and degree of liking far salty foods (p for trend
