title: Is there an effect of menopause on CHD mortality? Asia Pacific comparisons.
abstract: This study examines the mortality rates of men and women from coronary heart disease (CHD) in a number of Asia-Pacific countries with very different incidences of this disorder. In all countries, mortality rates from CHD were higher in men. In women, no unequivocal change in mortality rate from CHD attributable to the menopause could be detected.
