Higher OM3 in Japanese in Japan partly accounted for the difference in incidence. Additional adjustment for OM3 did not account for the significant difference in AC progression but accounted for the difference in incidence between Japanese in Japan and Japanese Americans (Table 1).Ĭonclusion: Japanese in Japan had a significantly slower progression and lower incidence of AC compared to white and Japanese Americans. Median blood levels of OM3 were 7.9% for Japanese in Japan, 2.6% for white Americans and 3.8% for Japanese Americans. Results: Japanese in Japan had a significantly slower progression and lower incidence of AC compared to white and Japanese Americans after adjusting for age, baseline AC score, follow-up time, and traditional risk factors. Robust linear regression models were used to compare the progression of AC and multivariable logistic regression models were fitted to compare the incidence of AC (AC≥50 at follow-up) among those with baseline AC<50. Progression of AC score was calculated as the difference between the follow-up and baseline of the natural log-transformed AC+1. AC score was assessed with the Agatston method. AC was evaluated from the aortic arch to the iliac bifurcation with computed tomography. Method: Men (n=700) aged 40-49 years (252 Japanese in Japan, 238 white Americans, and 210 Japanese Americans) were examined at baseline and 4-7 years later. Our objective was to compare the progression of aortic calcification (AC) between Japanese in Japan, white Americans, and third-generation Japanese Americans without ethnic admixture in population-based samples of middle-aged men from the ERA JUMP cohort and to examine whether the higher blood levels of marine omega–3 fatty acids (OM3) in Japanese in Japan than in Americans account for the difference. The only possible method was with carrier-borne aircraft, but standard naval planes had too short a range. military find a way to strike back directly at Japan.
