New publication: Bereavement in Early Life and Later Childhood Overweight
Objective: The rise in the occurrence of childhood obesity during the last decades in many populations indicates an important role of environmental exposures, which may operate very early in life. We aimed to examine the association between bereavement during the first 6 years of life, as a stress indicator, and subsequent risk of overweight in school-aged children. Methods: We followed 46,401 singletons born in Denmark who underwent annual health examinations at 7–13 years of age in school of Copenhagen.

DanORC videnskabelig sammenfatning indsendt til DSF
Den videnskabelige slutrapportering for DanORC er nu indsendt til DSF
Det nationale forskningscenter DanORC (Danish Obesity Research Centre) blev oprettet med fokus på at undersøge, hvordan specifikke komponenter af kosten bidrager til udvikling af fedme og dens komplikationer, såsom type 2 diabetes og hjertekarsygdomme. Kostkomponenterne omfattede som udgangspunkt specifikke fedtsyrer og mælkeprotein, og deres effekter i forhold til fedme blev undersøgt i cellekultur, mus, grise og mennesker. Forebyggelse af fedme ved brug af økonomiske instrumenter (såsom en højere sukkerafgift) blev vurderet, og der blev lavet historiske undersøgelser af kosten gennem forrige århundrede. Centrets formål blev senere udvidet til fedmeforskning i bred forstand. Yderligere information om forskningen og dens resultater kan findes på www.danorc.dk. Den danske fedmeforskning bør til stadighed styrkes ved at sikre den fortsatte udvikling af det tværvidenskabelige og nationale samarbejde.
