N2  - Weight and height values measured in a population-based case-control study of breast cancer conducted in Hawaii were used to validate body size information recorded on driver's licenses. It is concluded that this information is sufficiently accurate to justify the use of driver's license registration files as a means of assembling large prospective or historical cohorts to study the health hazards of obesity.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
