About this study

Cancer and cardiovascular disease are the global leading causes of death. These two disease entities are multifactorial disease that are caused by several factors. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to investigate the status of risk factors profiles and health related behavior in Korean population, and to discover novel risk factors associated with the occurrence of endpoint events.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, observational, prospective cohort study. The primary outcomes include the incidence of MACE (major adverse cardiovascular events) and the incidence of any malignancy. We plan to collect the baseline information at enrollment and the occurrence of clinical endpoint events will be followed for at least 10 years. The study will enroll 510,000 subjects aged ≥19 years who underwent a general health screening in Korea.
