Sammanfattning
The objective was to describe the fourth phase of the Prospective Population Study of Women in Gothenburg, with special reference to participation and survival. The participation rate throughout the study period was high. The mortality after 24 years was higher in non-participants than in participants, while there was no difference in survival between women who were invited and women who were not invited to the study.
