Description topics
- Health and disorders
- Chronic disorders
- Chronic disorders until 2001
- Refers to a list of 24 diseases and disorders. The respondent is invited
to indicate if he/she suffered from one of these diseases/disorders during
the last 12 months. The figures refer to the percentage of persons who
answered affirmatively. Various questions regarding disorders/diseases
were not asked to persons under the age of 12. They are assumed to have
answered 'no'. The following 8 diseases/disorders are involved:
- hypertension
- (the effects of) a stroke
- stomach ulcer or duodenal ulcer
- gallstones or cystitis
- kidney stones
- prolapse
- thyroid disorder
- arthritis.
In 2001 new questions were formulated. Therefore, figures from 2001 and
later years cannot be compared to those referring to 2000 and previous
years.- Malignant disorder or cancer
- Chronic disorders from 2001
- Refers to 14 diseases and disorders and 1 category 'other chronic
disease or disorder'. The respondent has to indicate whether he/she
suffered from one or more of these diseases/disorders in the last 12
months. The figures refer to the percentage of persons who answered
'yes'. Questions regarding a number of chronic disorders mentioned below
were not asked to persons in the age category under 12. They are assumed
to have answered 'no'.
- hypertension
- constriction of the blood vessels
- dizziness
- incontinence
- arthrosis
- diabetes, types 1 and 2
- stroke
- myocardial infarction
- other serious heart condition
- cancer.
This implies that figures referring to 2001 and later years cannot be
compared to those referring to 2000 and earlier years.- Ever had cancer 2001
- Percentage of persons of all ages who answered 'yes' to the question:
Did you ever have cancer (malignant disorder)?
- Had cancer last year 2001
- Percentage of persons of all ages who answered 'yes' to the question:
Did you ever have cancer (malignant disorder)? And 'yes' to the question:

- Lifestyle
- Medical examination cervical cancer
- The respondents were women aged 20 years and older. These questions are
relevant to the preventative screening of the population for cervical
cancer.- Smear tests until 2001
- Ever been tested for cervical cancer?
- The respondents were women in the age category 20 years and older.
Hence, the (standard) age category 18-24 only covers persons in the age
category 20-24.
