EpiHealth - Baseline
During the baseline investigation, data collection came from three primary sources: internet-based questionnaires, physical measurements from the EpiHealth Test Center visit and results from the analysis of blood before storage.
The questionnaire provides information about several life-style factors divided into fifteen sections: family structure, social group, education, reproduction, history of diseases, medication usage, food intake, alcohol consumption, smoking/snuffing history, physical activity, work life history, pain history, quality of life, history of injuries and environmental exposures.
At the EpiHealth Test Centre (Uppsala or Malmö), physical measurements (ECG, blood pressure and pulse rate, height, weight, waist circumference and lung function), cognitive tests (Trail making test A and B) and fasting blood samples are collected to provide baseline data.
Finally, the EpiHealth database is merged with several official national Swedish registries regarding health care.
