The China Kadoorie Biobank Study The China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) Study (www.ckbiobank.org) is a uniquely rich and powerful global resource for investigating the environmental and genetic determinants of common chronic diseases. It is a long-term prospective cohort study of >512,000 men and women aged 30-79 years who were recruited during 2004-08 from ten geographically diverse urban and rural regions across China. The study aims to investigate the lifestyle, behavioural, environmental and genetic factors contributing to the aetiology of common chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, cancer and respiratory disease. An extensive range of data on environmental, physiological and lifestyle risk factors were collected at time of recruitment, with periodic resurveys of a subset of participants every 4-5 years. The health of participants is actively monitored through electronic linkages with the established morbidity and mortality registries, and with the national health insurance system for any episodes of hospitalisation. To date, >60,000 deaths and >1.2 million ICD-10-coded hospitalised disease events have been recorded in the study, including >65,000 strokes, >55,000 heart disease, >30,000 cancers and >35,000 new cases of diabetes. These exposure and health outcome data are complemented by assays of the stored samples in a subset of participants, including clinical biochemistry, NMR metabolomics, proteomics, red cell fatty acids, and chronic infection markers. Moreover, >100,000 CKB participants have been genotyped, using a custom designed Affy 800K SNP panel optimised for Chinese, and whole genome sequencing of the first 10,000 participants has recently been completed. It is planned that much larger scale, or cohort-wide, assays of the stored samples will take place over the next several years, using high throughput omics technologies. This uniquely rich, complex and multi-dimensional resource will allow scientists to undertake a wide range of research about disease aetiology, risk prediction, prognosis, and development of new treatments over the next few decades. The study is conducted jointly by the NDPH in Oxford, and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking University in Beijing. It was established with initial funding from the Kadoorie Charitable Foundation in Hong Kong, with further long-term core support from the Wellcome Trust, the Medical Research Council, the British Heart Foundation and Cancer Research UK, as well as various funding bodies in China.
