Malmö Kost Cancer

DOI

The MDC was started in the early 1990s as a screening survey in the middle-aged population of Malmö, the third largest city of Sweden. 28000 subjects living in Malmö were during 1991-1996 invited by letter and through public advertisement to a clinical examination whitch included blood sampling and a questionnaire about nutrition. 62 % of the participants were women. Cardiovascular risk factors were measured in a random subsample (n= 6000). After 16 years, during 2007-2012, a new clinical examination and blood sampling was performed (n=3700). Morbidity and mortality have been followed up by national registers. Purpose: 1. To screen for dietary habits in order to predict incident cancers in the general population 2. To screen for cardiovascular risk factors and early atherosclerosis in a sub-sample.

Malmö Kost Cancer startades i början av 90-talet som en screening studie av den medelålders populationen i Malmö. 28000 personer som bodde i Malmö inviterades per brev och via offentlig annonsering under perioden 1991-1996 till en klinisk undersökning där det togs blodprov och deltagarna fick besvara frågor om kostvanor. 62 % av deltagarna var kvinnor. I ett slumpvist urval (n= 6000) mättes också kardiovaskulära riskfaktorer. Efter 16 år, 2007-2012, gjordes uppföljning (n=3700) med enkät och blodprovstagning. Uppföljning av mortalitet och morbiditet är gjort via nationella register. Syfte: 1. Att kartlägga matvanor för att prediktera incidenta cancerfall i befolkningen 2. Att kartlägga kardiovaskulära riskfaktorer och tidig åderförkalkning i ett mindre urval.
