It is well known that the environmental factors favoring the atherogenesis form a very extensive list, including foods, age, race and local difference. To study this problem, there are two approaches, i.e. the one studying the individual environmental factors, and the other studying from the geopathological viewpoint. In a geopathological research, it is desirable that both the methods and the researchers are the same. A quantitative method of expressing the degree of atherosclerosis, proposed by Gore and Tejada in 1957, has made it possible to conduct such a geopathological research by a standardized method. Studies of atherosclerosis by this method have since been carried out in various cities of Japan as well as in the rest of the world and a large number of results have accumulated. In Japan, reports have been published covering the northern districts (Sapporo, Sendai, Tokyo) and the southern districts (Kyushu, Osaka). Recently, the present authors have made a research, using the method of Gore et al. on the relationship between the aortic and coronary atherosclerosis in the middle part of Japan (Gifu) with emphasis on the role of the age, sex, various diseases, hypertension and the cardiac hyper-trophy. This paper aims at describing the result of this research together with some considerations of the relevant literatures. Materials: The materials consisted of unstained aortas and coronary arteries of 247 autopsy cases suitable for this study, selected from a consecutive series of 270 autopsy cases examined in the 2nd Department of Pathology, Gifu University School of Medicine during a period of 1967 to 1969. The age and sex distributions of the samples are listed in Table I. Also, cardinal clinico-pathological diagnoses of 247 autopsy cases are shown in Table II.
