Abstract EN

In this paper the methodology and procedures of a case-control study that will be developed for assessing the role of dietary habits and eating behaviours on the development of acute coronary syndrome and stroke is presented.

Based on statistical power calculations, 1000 participants will be enrolled; of them, 250 will be consecutive patients with a first acute coronary event, 250 consecutive patients with a first ischaemic stroke, and 500 population-based healthy subjects (controls), age and sex matched to the cases.

Socio-demographic, clinical, dietary, psychological, and other lifestyle characteristics will be measured.

Dietary habits and eating behaviours will be evaluated with a special questionnaire that has been developed for the study.
