Study population: 1. The screened group who participated in the cardiovascular prevention program: (n=5938) and the rest of the population in Sollentuna Municipality. 2. To the screened group matched "controls" will be selected randomly from the population of Stockholm County minus Sollentuna. The population in Sollentuna will compared to the population of Stockholm County minus Sollentuna Municipality. 3. Relatives of individuals included in the intervention group and who lived in Stockholm County at the time of the intervention will be identified by use of national registers.

About this study

Official title: Long-term Follow-up of an Individual and Population-based Program Aimed at Preventing Cardiovascular Disease in Sollentuna Municipality

To evaluate long-term effects of one individual- and population-oriented cardiovascular prevention programs in primary care.

Read the detailed description

In Sweden there are unique opportunities to create a relevant comparison group for this study, which is of great importance to the value of this cohort study.

Of the three study populations two (2-3)will be created by using national registries.

  1. The screened group consists of the individuals (n = 5938) who had direct contact with the prevention program, ie undergone a voluntary opportunistic cardiovascular screening (questionnaire, physical examination and testing in connection with visits to health centers) and the rest of all individuals who lived in Sollentuna Municipality between 1988-1993.
  2. Relatives of individuals included in the screened group who lived in Stockholm county at the time of the intervention will be identified by the use of the Medical Birth Register and the Multi-Generation Register. Family members are defined as parents, siblings and children and husband / wife to those in thescreened group and will be analyzed in the same way as those who participated in the intervention for risk of developing cardiovascular disease and cancer.
  3. The comparison group consists of the entire population of Stockholm County minus Sollentuna 1988-93, taking into account population changes (migration, birth, death) during the period.

This three populations will be followed-up in national registries and databases

All subjects will be monitored for example disease history, socio-economics and biochemical risk factors presented below national registries and research databases. When all the matches of national registers and a local register (AMORIS)have been done the database will de-identified and anonymized data to be available for statistical processing.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Screened groupScreened group is defined as those individuals who were willing to participate in the cardiovascular prevention program and all the individuals who lived in Sollentuna during the intervention.
Relatives to the screened groupRelatives to individuals included in the screened group, who lived in Stockholm County at least during one year at the time of the intervention.
Control groupMatched "controls" is going to be selected randomly from the population of Stockholm County minus Sollentuna Municipality with relevant background factors. The whole population will be used as a comparison group when evaluating the result from all the municipality of Sollentuna during 1988-1993.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence and mortality in acute myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiovascular disease, and overall mortality, a twenty year follow-up of a prevention program.
