Background and Objective. This paper aims to describe long-term visions for health research in the Philippines. Ambisyon Natin 2040, an overarching vision for a dynamic country by the year 2040, is its main inspiration as this enables innovation and sustainable development. Methods. The health research profile conceptual framework developed by Tugwell et al., (2006) was utilized to structure the articulation of these visions. Review of related literature, reports, and documents and in-depth interviews with key players in health research were conducted. Results. In view of economic and technological developments in the country, it is expected that in 2040, health research priorities shall be more trans-disciplinary and more advanced. Research on health regulation and ethics will continue to be of importance. A more enabling environment for health research is also envisioned, since majority of research funding is expected to come from government, in addition to more research-friendly laws. More innovative platforms will be utilized to disseminate research results. The increasing international exposure and impact of academic work in the Philippines is also envisaged. Conclusion and Recommendations. Health research in the Philippines has been benefitted by a lot of gains and advances in the past years. Thus, to create an enabling health research system in the Philippines by 2040, focusing on innovations in health research, increased number of funding sources, and crafting of better policies on health research should be pursued. Sustaining these gains and advancing health research in our country entail collective effort from different stakeholders, both public and private.

It is difficult to disagree with Chilvers & Clark that, overall, recent work to bring a more systematic approach to the organisation of mental health research in England has been a good thing. It is also necessary if mental health is to compete for research funding with other branches of healthcare. However, recent changes in the research system have not all been positive and there is a danger that the process of centralisation, which is inherent to the model they describe, will have unintended adverse consequences.

Background: Bibliometric analyses are an important tool for evaluating health research outputs in terms of their distribution, trends, actors, focus, and funding sources. The transition from Millennium to sustainable development goals have led to a gradual shift in health policy and possibly the research priorities of low-income settings in the Empowered Action Group (EAG) states, lagging in socio-economic and health parameters, also ranking low on innovations and research. This study was aimed to describe the recent trends, quantity, type, focus and sources of health-related research in the EAG state of Odisha, India.Materials and Methods: Peer reviewed published original research articles which were related to human health, published between 1st Jan 2011 and 31st Dec 2020 and where the study population were residents of Odisha, or study site was in Odisha, exclusively or partially were analyzed. Publication characteristics were tabulated, including title, journal name, open access, date of publication, number of authors, designation of the authors, number of institutes involved, name of institute of first author. Details of study setting, study site, ethical clearance, funding source were also collected.Results: The study identified 2285 articles from database searches and included 666 articles after screening for the bibliometric analysis. Most of the manuscripts had between 3-6 authors (43.5%). Two institutes from the state, ICMR-RMRC and KIIT, together contributed to over 22.4% of the published manuscripts as lead authors. Nearly 45.9% studies were community based while 45.3% were hospital based. While most of the published work was on infectious diseases, the proportion came down with time between 2011 and 2020. An overwhelming majority of studies were observational in nature and less than 10% were experimental in design. Conclusions: The analysis shows a substantial increase in the number of publications in this decade. Priority setting of health care problems, increased funding and capacity building can give a much-necessitated impetus to more quality and evidence-based research for aiding policy implementation and improvement of overall health of Odisha.

This article introduces the WHO health research system analysis (HRSA) initiative as an input to the World Health Report 2004 on health research, "Knowledge for Better Health". Section 2 presents the HRSA conceptual framework for operational description and analysis of national health research from a system rather than sector perspective. Section 3 summarizes research projects addressing contemporary cross-national issues, aiming to: provide answers to key questions, further explore contested areas within systems, and improve decision-making on research investment options. Section 4 summarizes the comprehensive country studies on research systems. Section 5 outlines a pilot study on methods for 18 comprehensive country studies, including Brazil, Chile, and Costa Rica. Section 6 concludes that the pilot study and eventual main phase to describe and analyze national health research systems will demonstrate WHO's commitment to strengthening capacity in partnership with countries.
