A major Danish study conducted by the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) and Odense University Hospital has found that thorough health checks in men aged 60-64 help initiate cardiovascular disease prevention - and result in a marked drop in mortality rates. Cardiovascular disease and blood clots are among the leading causes of death in men.

A new nationwide study from SDU shows that patients with low socioeconomic status, chronic disease and residence in the Capital Region of Denmark and Region Zealand more frequently change their GP - which can have consequences for treatment, equality in health and national economy.
