In my PhD project I focus on how blood pressure development in 40 year old women and men impact cardiovascular health 20 years later. The project is a part of the community based Hordaland Health Study (https://husk-en.w.uib.no/). Blood pressure and cardiovascular risk factors were measured in a total of 3700 persons born 1950-51 in 1992-93 (HUSK1) and in 1997-99 (HUSK2). These persons have been invited to a new, ongoing survey (HUSK3). In HUSK3 all participants will undergo cardiovascular examinations with ultrasound of the heart and measurement of arterial stiffness.
