      <abstract xml:lang="en" contentType="abstract">The Cohort of Swedish Men is a large population-based cohort of over 45,000 men in the counties of Västmanland and Örebro. All men born 1918-1952 who were residing in Västmanland and Örebro County in 1997 received an invitation to participate in this research study and a questionnaire to answer and return. Approximately 48,000 men responded. Follow-ups were done during 2008/2009 and 2019. The study examine associations of environmental/modifiable risk factors with several cancer sites (e.g., prostate, colorectal and renal cell cancer), myocardial infarction, stroke, cataracts, as well as death causes.  The study has a longitudinal design, and to complement the update on exposure data record linkages to the nationwide Cancer Register, the In-Patient Register, and the Cause of Death Register and Population Register are also done.

The questionnaires used in the Cohort of Swedish men are the same as the ones that have been used in the Swedish Mammography Cohort (SMC). For updated information on questionnaires and variable lists please visit https://www.simpler4health.se/researchers/.

Purpose:

The general aim of the Cohort of Swedish Men (COSM) is to assess relationships between a number of modifiable factors (diet, vitamin supplement use, physical activity, smoking, alcohol, body weight, other anthropometric measures etc.) and the occurrence of several major chronic diseases.

For restrictions in data use see https://www.simpler4health.se/researchers/rules-and-guidelines/ and https://www.simpler4health.se/researchers/publication-policy/.

In 2008, a second questionnaire was sent to all members of the Cohort of Swedish Men who were still alive, 37,861 men. The 2008 Health questionnaire collected information on general health status, disease diagnoses, current weight, height, waist and hip circumferences, dental health, medication use, sleep habits, urine and bowel habits, family history of selected diseases, stress, and social support. The questionnaire can be found at https://www.simpler4health.se/researchers/questionnaires/.</abstract>
      <abstract xml:lang="sv" contentType="abstract">Kohorten av svenska män (COSM) är en omfattande populationsbaserad uppföljningsstudie med mer än 45 000 deltagande män i Västmanland och Örebro län. Alla män födda 1918-1952 som var bosatta i Västmanland och Örebro län fick 1997 en inbjudan till studien och en enkät om kost och livsstil. Ungefär 48 000 män besvarade enkäten. Uppföljande enkäter har skickats ut 2008/2009 och 2019. I studien undersöks samband mellan miljö/förändringsbara riskfaktorer och olika typer av cancer (t.ex. cancer i prostata, tarm, njurar), hjärtinfarkt, stroke, benskörhet, grå starr, och andra dödsorsaker. Studien har en longitudinell design och utöver uppdaterad exponeringsdata följs kohorten även upp genom matching mot exempelvis cancerregistret, sjukhusregister, dödsorsaksregister och populationsregister.

Frågeformulären som använts i Kohorten av svenska män har även använts i Svenska mammografikohorten (SMC). För uppdaterad information om frågeformulär och variabellistor besök https://www.simpler4health.se/researchers/.

Syfte:

Syftet med Kohorten av svenska män är att undersöka samband mellan ett antal förändringsbara faktorer (kost, vitamintillskott, fysisk aktivitet, rökning, alkohol, vikt, andra antropometriska mått, m.m.) och förekomsten av ett flertal betydande kroniska sjukdomar.

Under 2008 skickades ett andra frågeformulär till alla medlemmar i Kohorten Svenska Män som fortfarande levde, 37 861 män. Hälsoenkäten 2008 samlade information om allmänt hälsotillstånd, sjukdomsdiagnoser, aktuell vikt, längd, midje- och höftomfång, tandhälsa, medicinanvändning, sömnvanor, urin- och tarmvanor, familjehistoria av utvalda sjukdomar, stress och socialt stöd. Frågeformuläret finns på https://www.simpler4health.se/researchers/questionnaires/.</abstract>
