Lene Lochte

Lene Lochte is a Guest researcher at the Department of Odontology, University of Copenhagen, specializing in pediatric respiratory epidemiology. She holds a PhD from the University of Copenhagen (awarded 2016) and serves as a Collaborator with the Global Asthma Network at The University of Auckland since 2013.

Education

• PhD in Pediatric Respiratory Epidemiology and Medicine, University of Copenhagen (2013-2015, awarded January 23, 2016)

Research Interests

Her work investigates childhood asthma epidemiology with focus on physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness associations. Utilizing WHO Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) survey data, she examines population-level patterns and conducts systematic reviews to establish evidence-based links between sedentary behavior and respiratory conditions in children. Her research bridges clinical pediatrics and public health surveillance methodologies.

Publications Trends

Lochte's 2016-2018 publications demonstrate consistent focus on asthma-physical activity relationships through epidemiological lenses. Her work combines population studies (using WHO HBSC datasets) with systematic review methodologies, emphasizing methodological rigor via tools like the Graphic Appraisal Tool for Epidemiology. Key themes include dose-response relationships between activity levels and asthma prevalence across diverse pediatric cohorts.
