HUNT1
HUNT1 (1984-1986) was the first health survey in Nord-Trøndelag. HUNT1 consisted mainly of four sub-studies; blood pressure, diabetes, lung diseases and quality of life. The purpose of the survey was to find prevalence of hypertension and diabetes, as well as to evaluate the quality of life in people with high blood pressure, diabetes and tuberculosis.
