Advance Care Planning; an Innovative Palliative Care Intervention to Improve Quality of Life in Cancer Patients - a Multi-Centre Cluster Randomized Clinical Trial (ACTION)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2018,
"Advanced cancer typically involves multiple symptoms and seriously affects patients´ quality of life. Anxiety and depression are common. Medical care for patients with advanced cancer should be aimed at symptom control, psychosocial support, spiritual needs, and practical issues. Patients’ preferences regarding care should be central. Open and respectful communication are of key importance, but h ...

"New and more individualised population-based screening for cardiovascular disease; from a RCT including selfassessments, primary care and coronary artery calcification score to modelling risk-benefit" (ROBINSCA)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2017,
"Cardiovascular disease currently is the primary cause of death of two million people in Europe each year. Early cardiovascular disease can be treated effectively and at ever-lower costs. This has raised hopes that if large groups of individuals who are at an increased risk could be identified earlier, morbidity and mortality from the disease could potentially be reduced. New risk questionnaires, ...

Economic Cycles, Employment and Health: Disentangling Causal Pathways in a Cross-National Study (HEALTHCYCLE)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,
Research in economics suggests that business cycles are associated with population health: Physical health deteriorates during economic expansions and improves during recessions. At odds with these findings, research in epidemiology and sociology suggests that individual unemployment and job insecurity are associated with poor health and higher mortality. While studies on the impact of economic cy ...

Consortium on Health and Ageing: Network of Cohorts in Europe and the United States (CHANCES)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,
CHANCES aims at combining and integrating on-going cohort studies in order to produce evidence on ageing-related health characteristics and determinants in Europe, and their socio-economic implications. 15 cohorts participate, covering populations from 18 EU Member States, 4 associate countries, and 3 additional countries. The combination of these different studies would lead to an integrated appr ...

Genomic & Epigenomic Complex Disease Epidemiology (GEoCoDE)
Date du début: 1 mars 2010, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,
Genetic and epigenetic epidemiology are rapidly developing aspects of population-based health research that have clear translational potential. These endeavours both benefit considerably from extensive international collaborations. Establishing robust associations between genetic variation and common complex disease phenotypes requires very large sample sizes than can only realistically be generat ...

RICHE – a platform and inventory for child health research in Europe (RICHE)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2013,
"The European Commission and other funding agencies make a large investment in child health research. The health of our children is satisfactory, but there are serious concerns, for example, obesity, mental health, alcohol abuse, and sexuality. We know that there are strong links between the health of young people and their social inclusion and level of education. Our objective is to establish a s ...

Developing a Child Cohort Research Strategy for Europe (CHICOS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2013,
"Mother-child cohorts are currently collecting a wealth of information on childhood diseases and their determinants across Europe, but these data are often of fragmented nature and there is little coordination to structure and consolidate scattered research. Although cohort research carries large potential policy implications, messages are not always filtering through to policy at the national, le ...

European Network for Genetic and Genomic Epidemiology (ENGAGE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,
"ENGAGE (European Network for Genetic and Genomic Epidemiology) has, as its central objective, the translation of the wealth of data emerging from large-scale research efforts in molecular epidemiology into information of direct relevance to future advances in clinical medicine. ENGAGE will do this through the integration of very large-scale genetic and phenotypic data already available from a sub ...

Genomic variations underlying common behavior diseases and cognition trait in human populations (ADAMS)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
"The subject of the proposal is the search and analysis of genomic variations underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD), alcoholism and schizophrenia – wide-spread diseases in human populations. Schizophrenia and alcoholism are common forms of behavior pathology and disability in adult life. AD is a most common form of dementia in human populations. Though the genomic variations presumably associated wi ...

“Improved methodology for data collection on accidents and disabilities – Integration of European Injury Statistics” (INTEGRIS)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2011,
"The implementation of a prevention-oriented injury surveillance in the EU is a major demand towards the Member States in the recent “EC Council Recommendations on the prevention of injury and the promotion of safety”. Needed in particular are valid and reliable indicators for the array of external causes of injury morbidity, like involved activities, products and mechanisms, and for the most seve ...

A European Collaboration to optimise research for the care of cancer patients in the last days of life (OPCARE9)
Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2011,
"The project aims to explore, share and collate existing knowledge and practice in each of the key themes identified within the work programme. It aims to reach consensus (based on current practice and available research evidence) on the optimum care to be delivered in the last days of life and gaps in the knowledge base. In addition, it aims to develop innovative ways of addressing gaps in knowle ...
