  • Bankruptcy1 increases the risk of early death as much as heart disease, according to new research by Northwestern University.

    美国西北大学的一项新研究表明,破产和心脏病一样会增加过早死亡的风险。

    Researchers found that people who lost 75 percent of their wealth were 50 percent more likely to die during the 20-year study -- suggesting that the shock of sudden financial hardship could lead to serious illness.

    研究人员发现,在20年的研究期间,失去75%财富的人的死亡率要高出50%,这表明突如其来的经济困难可能会导致严重的疾病。

    Furthermore, of the 8,700 people studied, those who lost a home were 87 percent more likely to die prematurely2 than those who did not.

    此外,在8700人的研究中,那些失去了家的人比没有失去的人,过早死亡的可能性要高87%。

    The data was surprising, Lindsay Pool, research assistant professor of preventive medicine at Northwestern, told NPR.

    西北大学的预防医学研究助理教授林赛·普尔向美国国家公共广播电台透露,这些数据令人很惊讶。

    "The risk of mortality has increased 50 percent over a 20-year period."

    “在20年的时间里,这一情况造成的死亡率上升了50%。”

    The study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

    这项研究发表在《美国医学协会杂志》上。
