The study was based on data from the British Biobank on more than 477,000 people aged 40 to 69. It showed that whites had a higher all-cause mortality rate than Asians and blacks.
At the same time, experts named coronary heart disease and digestive system cancer as the main causes of death in all three groups. The presence of psychiatric diagnoses and behavioral disorders increased the relative risk of death by 60% for Asians, and infectious and parasitic diseases increased the probability of death for blacks by two and a half times.
The scientific study also showed that certain procedures, such as upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy, were associated with a reduced risk of death in all three groups.
Another interesting point to note is that using butter as the main spread ingredient doubles the risk of death from digestive cancer among Asians compared to other spreads or margarine.
