Hostility and
Heart Disease
Hostility may be a key
aspect of the1 “Type An
behavior profile the hard-
drivintt, impatient person who
is at higher risk than others
of having heart attacks, said
Bedford B. Williams, Jr., M.D.,
at a recent American Heart
Associat ion meeting.
Not all Type A’s geb
heart attacks, but in studies
at Duke University Medical
Center in Durham, NC, over
the last seven years, Type A
patients showed more severe
eoionary heart disease than
others. And the' Type A’s
who scored high on an exper-
imental “hostility” scale from
the standard personality as
sessment questionnaire, the
Minnesota Multiphasic Inven-
tory (MMP1), had a particu
tarly high rate of heart disease
reported Dr. Williams, asso
eiate professor of medicine
and professor of psychiatry.
Dr. Williams studied the
records of 255 physicians
who had taken the MMPI
25 years earlier, while in
medical school. Those who
scored low on the hostility
scale had a less than three
percent heart attack rate
during the ensuing 25 years,
compared with more than a
12 percent rate for those with
higher range hostility scores
— nearly a five fold difference.
Their death rates from all
causes followed this same
pattern, being lower among
the low-hostility men.
Numerous researchers are
investigating the mechanisms,
by putting Type A’s and the
more calm Type B individuals
through stressful experiments
in laboratories. Type A’s
show larger boosts in blood
pressure, and larger increases
in blood levels of epinephrine
and cortisol, the adrenal hor-
mones that cause blood vessels
to constrict, Dr. Williams said.
The Duke researchers
found, among Type A men
given simple arithmetic prob-
lems, physiologic and hor-
monal reactions similar to
those seen in emergency
and fight-or-flight situations,
Excessive levels of the adrenal
hormones and of testosterone,
the male sex hormone, have
been implicated in animal
studies in the hardening and
narrowing of arteries.
Further studies are neces-
sary to determine if the
higher hormonal responses
observed so far in some
Type A persons are causative
factors in heart disease, Dr.
Williams said. If susceptible
people could be identified
early, then preventive mea-
sures could he taken to
save their lives.

Gas ranges
keep
temperatures
under control
6 Lone Star Gas Company
Almost nil great chefs
insist on natural gas ranges.
Because gas gives them
temperature control, par
excellence.
The low flame keeps even
the most delicate sauces,
wami without burning
them. Whilg the high flame
gives immediate, intense
heat tor a rapid boil.
And when the flame
is off, it’s off! There’s no
hangover heut to spoil the
creation.
But control isn’t the only
reason they cook with gas.
Gas saves money. In fact,
you can cook 1 Vi meals on a
high-efficiency gas range for
the cost of cooking one on a
non-gas range.
So get more for your
money and get a gas range
for your home. Today. We
promise you, you’ll be in
better control of your
temperature.
Get more foe youi money. Gel a gas range for your home.
