| | COHORT | Biobank collection name (for THL, it contains the THL cohorts as well) | | FU\_END\_AGE | Age at the end of the follow up; Age at the time when register follow-up ends in registers; age of death if individual has died, age of age of emigration if a person has moved abroad. | | DEATH | Death; 1=death by the end of death registry, 0=alive at the end of death registry. | | DEATH\_AGE | Age at death; Age of death if individual has died, age of age of emigration if a person has moved abroad, or age at the time when register follow-up ends in registers. | | APPROX\_DEATH\_DATE | Year of death | | APPROX\_BIRTH\_DATE | Randomized birth day (within +/- 1-15 days) | \*In the DF12 minimum extended data: AGE\_AT\_DEATH\_OR\_END\_OF\_FOLLOW\_UP and DEATH\_FU\_AGE columns replaced column FU\_END\_AGE containing the same information. If biobanks do not know the exact DNA sample collection date, they have been instructed to estimate it using age and the birth date extracted from the Finnish personal identity code. If the sample collection day is missing, the date is estimated to be `15.mm.yyyy`. If the month is missing, the sample collection date is estimated to be `30.06.yyyy`. In some cases, the sample collection date is not available and is impossible to estimate reliably. Biobanks are instructed to report dates for height, weight, and smoking status. These dates are compared against calculated values from the DNA sample collection date and the birth date extracted from the Finnish personal identity code. If values differ, clarification is asked from the biobank. Biobanks have been asked to provide all available information about smoking. Some biobanks send information if an individual is a current smoker, while some provide more detailed smoking information. Many other quality checks are performed as well. For example, a BMI needs to be between 10-80 kg/m2 when checking height and weight, and dates cannot be from the future. The sex reported by biobanks is compared against the personal identity code. If values differ, clarification is asked from the biobank. ### Further information [Extracting minimum phenotype data by biobank](/finngen-data-specifics/red-library-data-individual-level-data/what-phenotype-files-are-available-in-sandbox-1/minumum-extended-phenotype-data/extraction-of-finngen-minimum-data-set-information-per-biobank.md) [DNA isolation protocols by biobank](/finngen-data-specifics/red-library-data-individual-level-data/what-phenotype-files-are-available-in-sandbox-1/minumum-extended-phenotype-data/dna-isolation-protocols-per-biobank.md) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
