背景：我们通过检查救护车记录报告东日本大地震后心血管疾病（CVD）的发病率有所增加，但这必须由心脏病专家证实。 方法和结果：我们纳入了2008年至2011年间从灾区10家医院心脏病科收治的患者，从2008年至2011年3月11日后4周至3月11日后15周期间入院的患者（n=14,078）。地震后心力衰竭（HF）、肺血栓栓塞（PTE）和感染性心内膜炎（IE）等多种心血管疾病的每周发生率急剧上升。结论：地震导致HF、PTE和IE的发生率显着增加。 （Circ J 2013；77：490-493）
Background: We reported an increased occurrence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) after the Great East Japan Earthquake by examining ambulance records, but it had to be confirmed by cardiologists.Methods and Results: We enrolled patients admitted to the cardiology department of the 10 hospitals in the disaster area from 4 weeks prior to 15 weeks after March 11 in the years 2008-2011 (n=14,078). The weekly occurrence of several CVDs, including heart failure (HF), pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) and infectious endocarditis (IE), was sharply and significantly increased after the Earthquake.Conclusions: The Disaster caused significantly increases in the occurrence of HF, PTE and IE.
