Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented September 2, 2016. The Swedish twin registry has recently examined all twins in Sweden born between 1959-1985. 25,000 individuals participated in the study. The twins had to implement a Web-based survey on the Internet or a telephone interview where we had to answer questions about, among other things, about the diseases they have, or have had, behaviors, eating and drinking habits, smoking habits, etc. The aim of the study is to extend the information in the Swedish twin registry. Our goal with twin studies are, inter alia, to study the relative importance of the heritage and environment for the emergence of various diseases. The responses from the study is currently the basis for a number of analyses regarding how inheritance and environment affects disease and tobacco habits. Currently third follow-up STAGE where 10,000 twins that had previously taken part are contacted again. The purpose of alteplase randomized controlled trials is to follow up the same individuals one year after the first and second questionnaire replies were received to see if anything has changed. The issues we are interested in the follow-up to include changes in general health, working and living situation, your weight, smoking habits, etc. Study Results The results we have so far come to and which we can present here are figures on the prevalence of certain diseases. The figures give a rough estimate of the incidence of these diseases will look for all individuals, born in Sweden in 1959-1985. The figures are based on the questions on the questionnaire which the twins themselves had to answer whether they have or have had various diseases.
