Summary
This trial tests whether personalized health dialogues, combined with lifestyle screening and molecular profiling, can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, and other serious conditions. Adults aged 40, 50, 60, and 70 in Sweden's Skåne region will participate. They will complete questionnaires, have clinical measurements taken, and discuss their results with trained healthcare personnel. The study will track health outcomes over time to see if this approach leads to earlier detection and better prevention.
