Cohort Profile: The Hertfordshire Cohort Study

Syddall, HE, Aihie Sayer, A, Dennison, EM, Martin, HJ, Barker, DJP, Cooper, C·2005·International Journal of Epidemiology

Abstract

Ecological studies conducted in the 1980s demonstrated a close geographic correlation between death rates from coronary heart disease during the years 1968–78 in different parts of England and Wales and the infant mortality rate in these areas 60 years earlier.1 These studies suggested that adverse environmental influences acting in utero and during infancy might increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in later life. However, this hypothesis required investigation using more robust epidemiological techniques. To yield results within a relatively short space of time, a cohort study was needed which linked information about the early environment of individuals born at least 60 years earlier to their health outcomes in later life. As part of a nationwide search of archives, staff working at the MRC Environmental Epidemiology Unit (MRC EEU), University of Southampton, discovered a large set of records maintained in Hertfordshire during the early 20th century.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
