NOMAS ha determinado que los hispanos-caribeños residentes en la comunidad del alto Manhattan sufren accidentes cerebrovaculares a una edad más temprana que los negros y los blancos residentes en la misma comunidad. También, NOMAS a determinado que el índice de mortalidad por causas relacionadas a los accidentes cerebrovasculares es mayor entre hispanos-caribeños y negros que para los blancos residentes en la misma comunidad.

En la actualidad, NOMAS está evaluando las razones por las diferencias étnicas y raciales en la incidencia de accidentes cerebrovasculares. Al mismo tiempo, NOMAS está confirmando resultados sobre los efectos beneficiosos y protectivos de los ejercicios y el consumo diario moderado de alcohol.
