Abstract: | From 1975 through 1986, repeated preventive oncologic check-ups were carried out in the District Sumperk. In the course of the check-ups, 49,426 persons were examined. The examinations were aimed at surveillance of initial stadium of cancers as well as at detection of other serious chronic diseases. The results of the check-ups form a large database suitable for a number of epidemiological analyses. In this article, methods of the data collection are described, individual data items are characterized and their summary is presented in tables. Utilization of the database is proposed in specified types of epidemiological studies. |
