Figure 1 Age- and sex-adjusted rate of deaths due to heart disease in the United States (1900-2011). Data were obtained from several sources.1-3 The American Journal of Medicine 2016 129, 307-314DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2015.10.032) Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 The distribution of grade of stenosis among autopsied non-elderly adult residents of Olmsted County, Minnesota, who died from nonnatural causes during successive 6-year periods, 1995 through 2012. Grades assigned each of 4 major epicardial coronary arteries (left anterior descending [LAD], left circumflex [LCX], right coronary artery [RCA], and left main artery [LMA]) ranged from 0 (no reduction in cross-sectional luminal area) through 4, with 1, 2, 3, and 4 defined as >0%-25%, 26%-50%, 51%-75%, and >75%, respectively.
