Brief summary

The study aims to determine the impact of COVID-19 pandemic lockdown on cardiovascular prevention behaviour.

Detailed description

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a lockdown and social distancing in most countries all over the world. The impact of this national intervention on cardiovascular prevention behaviour (physical exercise, nutrition, smoking) is unknown. The COLA Trial aims to help clarifying these questions. An online survey was distributed among bavarian students with standardized questions about physical activity, nutritional behavior, smoking and alcohol intake before and during lockdown.
