Swedish Mammography Cohort-clinical (SMC-C) is a clinical sub-cohort established between 2003 and 2008, consisting of 5022 women, 56-80 years of age, living in Uppsala. These women have completed a detailed questionnaire on diet and lifestyle factors and underwent a health examination, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and biological sampling.

The cohort of 60-years olds (60YO) was established with the aim to study CVD etiology and consists of 4,232 men and women aged 60 years who were randomly selected from Stockholm County and with baseline examination during 1 year in 1997-98. The study participants underwent a health examination, completed a questionnaire, and donated blood samples.

These are food contaminants (acrylamide, glycidol) and environmental pollutants (POPs, PFAS). Assess the associations between biomarkers of acrylamide and glycidol exposure and disease outcomes in a case-cohort study based on two prospective cohorts with biobanks. The investigators also aim to assess the exposure-affected OMICS signatures and molecular pathways underlying disease development (specifically cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke and cancer such as breast-, endometrial and colorectal cancer) for these exposures along with POPs and PFAS using a prospective cohort study utilizing and integrating various 'OMICs' technologies.
