In the early 1990s, the Cancer Foundation initiated a large cohort study with the primary goal of investigating the relationship between diet and subsequent cancer risk. The MDC study was led by the professor of internal medicine, Göran Berglund, and the professor of epidemiology, Lars Janzon. Between 1991 and 1996, 17,000 women were recruited (born 1923-1950) and 11,000 men (born 1923-1945), whic

There are three different versions of the baseline questionnaire, version two is considered the main version. The questionnaire contains, among other things, questions about physical activity, medications, both prescription and non-prescription, and family diseases. Information on these issues is stored in separate files as they usually contain several rows per participant. The survey that was con

The dietary method used in the Malmö Diet Cancer is specially developed for the study. The choice of method was guided by the need to estimate the total diet in a middle-aged to elderly population, where eating habits largely consisted of regular, home cooked meals with meals eaten less often outside the home. The method consists of three parts:a Menu book, that is, a 7-day food diarya Dietary his
