- Adjusted for age by using age as the time scale.
- The following subjects are excluded from the analyses: Persons < 20 years of age at baseline study, and deaths between invitation and August 1986, August 1997, and August 2008 for HUNT1, HUNT2 and HUNT3, respectively. The number of participants and nonparticipants therefore are lower than previously for the entire study population.
