Copenhagen Infant Health Nurse Records (CIHNR)
CIHNR assesses the impact of early life circumstances on long-term health and socioeconomic outcomes. Participants were born in Copenhagen, Denmark, between 1959 and 1967 and followed up in person at birth, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, and 12 months of age. Over 92,000 participants completed the baseline data collection sweep. Participants have been followed through routinely collected data using their unique government-issued personal identification numbers to investigate health and socioeconomic outcomes.
