This report provides an estimate of the total research usable patients in FF-GPRD, between 1990 and 2008 (including those who have died or left the practice), for which a record of selected lifestyle factors is available. The purpose of this report is to provide researchers with an estimate of risk factor information available in FF-GPRD (eg. Smoking Status, Weight).
