  1. Notes: The recent cases are those with a diagnosis in the previous 3 years (myocardial infarction, stroke, hip fractures) or in the previous 5 years (colon and breast cancer). The distant cases are those in the respective residual group. The disease-free population refers to the share of the population who had not been diagnosed with the respective disease.
