Figures & data
Figure 1. The selection of the final study population included participants with follow-up between HUNT1 and HUNT2 (left side) or HUNT2 and HUNT3 (right side), respectively. Participants with a previous inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) diagnosis were excluded.*The participants were excluded because of missing values on BMI in HUNT3. **Data from the two latest HUNT studies was used when there were observations from all three HUNT studies.
