RESUMO
Males and females 30 years and over were invited to participate in a community health screening project. Thirty percent of the target population did so. They were questioned on personal and family medical history, smoking and drinking habits and occupation. Height, weight, blood pressure and ECG were recorded. Haemoglobin, blood sugar, cholesterol and uric acid were analysed. Overweight, hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia were common. About one third of males and females smoked but 23 percent of males had given up smoking at the time of the survey.
