Abstract

This summary of cardiovascular disease among Indigenous people is part of a series in this Journal. The objective of the series is to provide statistical information about specific areas of Indigenous health. The series draws largely on published information, some of which may be re-analysed to provide clearer comparisons between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.
