“…Mit standardisierten Interviews wurden Informationen unter anderem zu umweltrelevanten Verhaltensweisen, zum Wohnumfeld und zur Wohnungsnutzung und -ausstattung erhoben [1]. Neben dieser Basisuntersuchung für alle Kinder wurden bei Teilkollektiven weitergehende und umfangreiche Zusatzuntersuchungen durchgeführt, die in [1] beschrieben sind.…”

The German Environmental Survey for Children (GerES IV) is the environment-related module of the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS) of the Robert Koch Institute and the fourth GerES of the Federal Environment Agency. The main objective of GerESs is to analyse and document the extent, distribution and determinants of exposure to environmental pollutants of the German general population. GerES IV was performed from 2003 to 2006. A total of 1.790 children aged 3-14 years from 150 sampling locations participated in GerES IV. Samples of blood, urine, tap water, house dust and indoor air were analysed. Hearing tests, measurements of traffic noise and interviews to get exposure-related information were conducted. First results indicate a clear decrease of the exposure to arsenic, lead and mercury. Cotinine concentrations in urine can be used to classify the exposure of children to environmental tobacco smoke. The examination of the tap water used in the subjects' households indicates that in some households the guideline values of the German Drinking Water Ordinance were not always met. This is the case for nickel, copper and lead which are used as pipe material for domestic plumbing.

“…The LIFE Child study has an open policy in regard to collaboration with other research groups. Compared to other planned or recently started population-based cohort studies, the size of the LIFE Child study is not larger but the measurements are more detailed [2,3]. For example biological samples are obtained from all participants and their parents at each follow-up visit.…”

BackgroundProfound knowledge about child growth, development, health, and disease in contemporary children and adolescents is still rare. Epidemiological studies together with new powerful research technologies present exciting opportunities to the elucidation of risk factor-outcome associations with potentially major consequences for prevention, diagnosis and treatment.AimTo conduct a unique prospective longitudinal cohort study in order to assess how environmental, metabolic and genetic factors affect growth, development and health from fetal life to adulthood.MethodsThe ‘Leipzig Research Centre for Civilization Diseases (LIFE) Child Study’ focuses on two main research objectives: (1) monitoring of normal growth, development and health; (2) non-communicable diseases such as childhood obesity and its co-morbidities, atopy and mental health problems. Detailed assessments will be conducted alongside long-term storage of biological samples in 2,000 pregnant women and more than 10,000 children and their families.ResultsClose coordination and engagement of a multidisciplinary team in the LIFE Child study successfully established procedures and systems for balancing many competing study and ethical needs. Full participant recruitment and complete data collection started in July 2011. Early data indicate a high acceptance rate of the study program, successful recruitment strategies and the establishment of a representative cohort for the population of Leipzig. A series of subprojects are ongoing, and analyses and publications are on their way.DiscussionThis paper addresses key elements in the design and implementation of the new prospective longitudinal cohort study LIFE Child. Given the recognized need for long-term data on adverse effects on health and protective factors, our study data collection should provide magnificent opportunities to examine complex interactions that govern the emergence of non-communicable diseases.

“…Auf der Basis des bevölkerungsrepräsen-tativen Kinder-Umwelt-Surveys 2003-06 [6,7,8,9,10] hat die Kommission für eine Reihe von Schadstoffen beziehungsweise deren Metaboliten in Blut und/oder Urin die bisherigen Referenzwerte für Kinder in Deutschland [11,12,13] aktualisiert, bestätigt oder modifiziert. Der vorliegende Beitrag gibt die neuen und aktualisierten Referenzwerte bekannt für die Dialkylphosphat-Metabolite: Dimethylphosphat (DMP), Dimethylthiophosphat (DMTP), Dimethyldithiophosphat (DMDTP), Diethylphosphat (DEP) und Diethylthiophosphat (DETP) sowie für die folgenden Pyrethroidmetabolite: cis-Cl 2 CA, trans-Cl 2 CA (cis-und trans-3-(2,2-Dichlorvinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropan-1-carbonsäure) und 3-PBA (3-Phenoxybenzoesäure) im Urin der drei-bis 14-jährigen Kinder in Deutschland.…”
