The KNHEB cohort provides a large-scale, population-based dataset that supports comprehensive analyses of the long-term effects of modifiable risk factors on NCDs. Its findings contribute to evidence-based policymaking in South Korea and offer comparative insights for global research on chronic disease prevention and risk factor management. Furthermore, its standardized data collection and integration with health records facilitate cross-country comparisons, reinforcing its value as a model for large-scale epidemiological studies on NCDs
