Asthma in children

Article source Link,

Providence is already included in the extraordinary undertaking, which will last for a generation.
The effort is comparable in size and scope to the legendary Framingham Heart Study, based in Framingham, Mass., which began 60 years ago and continues to provide valuable information on the role of diet, exercise and the various treatments for heart disease.
The National Children's Study will look at childhood health issues such as asthma, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism, obesity, diabetes and injuries, said Stephen L. Buka, director of the Center for Population Health and Clinical Epidemiology at Brown.
Buka said the project will require hiring 30 to 40 people to collect data from about 1,000 women and their children in Bristol County as the researchers look at mothers before conception and during pregnancy, and the children from birth to age 21.
Enrollment will begin in 2011, one year after the project begins in Providence.
'We'll randomly pick about 15 different neighborhoods, each with about 1,000 dwelling units' and visit every one looking for pregnant women or women who might become pregnant, asking them to sign up for the study, Buka said
