The annual report for HCA Research at the Hans Christian Andersen Children’s Hospital provides a brief snapshot of our activities and contri- butions to pediatric research in 2016. The report presents projects, re- sults, teaching, grants and collaboration and as well as expectations for 2017.

In total, 2016 has been a good year for HCA Research. New projects have been started, a number of projects have been successfully finalized and the number of publications has increased. The research funding pro- file has temporarily decreased, but is expected again to increase in 2017

WELCOME As we move forward we will maintain our strength in interdisciplinary re- search while seeking to build new partnerships and recruit new resear- chers in new projects, in order to sustain the excellence and impact of our research unit.

Steffen Husby Professor & Head of Research

HCA Research is both a part of Hans Christian Andersen Chil- dren’s Hospital, Odense University Hospital, and a part of Depart- ment of Clinical Research, Faculty of Health Sciences at University of Southern . We are a team of professors, consultants, associate professors, ph.d. students, medical students, technici- ans, nurses and secretary assistants.

I S S I O N:

to promote and implement pediatric clini- M cal and experi- mental research at a high professional level. I S I O N: to optimize health HCA RESEARCH and treatment of children’s illness V through interdisci- plinary, clinical and biomedi- cal research of high quality with focus on prevention, di- agnostics and treatment.

HCA Research prioritizes local, regional, national and interna- tional collaboration. Our organizational position as a part of both University of Southern Denmark and Odense University Hospital provides us many opportunities to collaborate with other depart- ments and institutes.

In 2016 we have strengthened existing relations and expanded new promising collaborations.

Of the eligi- 2.543 ble population of 6,707 children / 2.494 families pregnant women, 4,017 declined while 2,874 (43%) enrolled in the cohort. The children are being examined at the age of 3 and 18 months, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15 and 18 years. 5 years examination (850 children The purpose of the project is to provide in- have participated so far) depth information about the interaction bet- ween maternal and child health and the impact of social and environmental factors in order to improve child health and wellbe- 3 years ing. Information is collected from question- examination finished(1.945 naires, medical record and biological mate- children have participated) rial from parents and child. In addition, in- formation is collected from health visitors, nurseries and school records. 222.641 ODENSE CHILD Odense Child Cohort is a strong collabo- samples in the bio ration between the Municipality of Odense, the University of Southern Denmark, Oden- se University Hospital and the Mental Health Services in the Region of Southern 2.405.000 DKK grant Denmark.
