Abstract
Between 1950 and 1964, 20,648 males, almost all white and mostly in managerial positions and upper socioeconomic levels, were examined in employer-sponsored periodic-health-examination programs at eight co-operating clinics. Over this period, involving more than 138,000 man-years of exposure to the risk of death, 1018 of the men died.Keywords
