Summary
The planned research project is a prospective population-based cohort study, similar to the well-known Framingham study in the United States. So far, there is no similar research project in Switzerland. It is planned to examine of three Swiss municipalities. Recruitment in a first Swiss municipality (Lostallo/Cama GR) started 2014 and ended in 2019. Overall, 496 participants were recruited in this municipality. The five-year follow-up in this municipality started in 2019. It is planned to start recruitment in a second Swiss municipality (Uznach SG) in 2020. The examinations embrace a broad spectrum of measurements (for details the investigators refer to the published study protocol).
