Type of database: research study, genomics.
Primary purpose: To investigate the association between various modifiable factors and the development of significant chronic diseases.
Sponsor, manager or home institution: Uppsala University.
Type of information: longitudinal. age, sex, place of residence, employment status, alcohol consumption, smoking habit, self-perceived health, self-reported prevalence of chronic diseases, diagnosis, medical procedures, periodicity of physician consultation, medication use, quality of life, number of visits. Participants completed a questionnaire about their diet and lifestyle habits. There are recorded health data, including information on multiple health conditions, medication use, aging, and overall as well as cause-specific mortality. Additionally, we maintain a biorepository containing various samples (saliva, blood, urine, adipose tissue, feces), along with corresponding clinical information.
