Design
- Study design
- Cohort
- Follow Up
- The local data can be linked to Finnish National Health Registers (e.g., mortality, cancer, health care and medicines) through the Findata-process by request. The invitation to take part in the Health 2011 Survey was sent to all persons who had been included in the random sample of the H2000 Survey 11 years earlier.
- Supplementary Information
- Deaths, several cardiovascular events, type 2 diabetes and cancers will be followed up and harmonized in the MORGAM Project.

Description of the access procedures
Biosamples and local data available for Health 2000/2011 Surveys are described in the THL Biobank webpage. Availability queries and application process to access THL Biobank resources are described in the application process page. The data of national health registers (e.g., mortality, cancer and other cases, health care and medicines) are available by request through Findata-process.
Data are being harmonized in the MORGAM Project (November 2022). After the harmonization is complete and consortium agreements are done, for access to the data from many MORGAM Centres, including Health 2000/2011, one should seek a collaboration with any of the Centre which can submit a publication proposal to the MORGAM/BiomarCaRE Steering Group.
