Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the distribution, awareness and control of main cardiovascular risk factors in the Spanish population. The main study variables are: * Lifestyles (tobacco, alcohol, nutrition, physical activity) * Biological risk factors either well-established (blood lipids, glucose, insulin and blood pressure) or emergent (leptin, C-reactive protein and other markers of inflammation)

Detailed description

Data collection comprised 3 sequential stages: 1. computer-assisted telephone interview to obtain information on lifestyle, knowledge and attitudes about cardiovascular disease risk factors, and the signs and symptoms of heart attack and stroke, subjective health, and morbidity; 2. first homevisit, to collect blood and urine samples for analysis by a central laboratory; 3. second home visit, to measure anthropometric variables and blood pressure and to administer a computer-assisted dietary history; data on functional limitations are also collected from participants aged 65 years and older.
