Indiana Core Center for Clinical Research in Musculoskeletal Health

肌肉骨骼疾病的诊断和治疗的进步需要强有力的 临床研究基础设施和各种疾病的改进分类。这个 印第安纳临床研究核心中心(ICCCR)的首要目标-印第安纳中心 为肌肉骨骼健康临床研究中心(ICMH-CRC)提供所需的 加强肌肉骨骼疾病临床研究的培训和资源，以改进 各种疾病和人群的肌肉骨骼健康。在目标1中，我们将部署 通过连接MSK促进跨学科临床研究的管理核心 研究人员与研究慢性病的调查人员一起，加强与社区的合作 教育、通知、招募和评估弱势群体和少数群体，提供试点 资助和培训下一代肌肉骨骼研究人员。我们将通过以下方式创新 增加社区与不同种族和民族人口的接触，以鼓励 参与MSK研究。在目标2中，我们将整合和协调来自多个 肌肉骨骼信息学方法论(MIM)核心中的数据源。我们将开发一种 便捷、安全和创新的MSK数据集市，集成并协调了1)全州范围内的 “传统”电子健康记录(EHR)，2)衡量社会和结构决定因素 基于地理编码的健康状况，3)来自FIT核心的预期数据收集，以及4) 来自MSK生物库的基因组学和样本可用性。数据集市将扩展我们的核心 基于可计算的(源自计算机的数据)链接和最大化MSK评估 在我们的第一个P30中，表型得到了发展和提炼。在目标3中，我们将促进 肌肉骨骼功能、成像和组织(FIT)资源核心，以提供标准化 评估肌肉骨骼健康并扩大生物样品的可获得性，以促进 肌肉骨骼健康与疾病的探索。我们将创新我们的资源核心(Fit Core) 通过将核心带到社区卫生中心和组织，实现多样化 我们的测试人群制定种族和民族特定的Z分数。我们也将完整地表演 对受试者DNA进行外显子组测序以扩大MSK的实用性 功能(物理功能)、形态(成像)和可计算(电子健康记录) 通过与基因组数据相关联的表型。这些目标将有助于促进和推进临床 MSK疾病的研究导致预防、诊断、治疗和治愈 个人。

Advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders requires a robust clinical research infrastructure and improved classification of the various disorders. The overarching goal of the Indiana Core Center for Clinical Research (ICCCR) – the Indiana Center for Musculoskeletal Health Clinical Research Center (ICMH-CRC) is to provide the needed training and resources to enhance clinical research in musculoskeletal disorders to improve musculoskeletal health across a broad range of diseases and populations. In Aim 1 we will deploy the Administrative Core to facilitate cross disciplinary clinical research by connecting MSK researchers with investigators studying chronic disease, enhance work with the community to educate, inform, recruit and assess disadvantaged and minoritized populations, provide pilot funding, and train the next generation of musculoskeletal researchers. We will innovate through increased community engagement with racial and ethnically diverse populations to encourage participation in MSK research. In Aim 2, we will integrate and harmonize big data from multiple data sources in the Musculoskeletal Informatics Methodology (MIM) Core. We will develop a facile, secure and innovative MSK Data Mart that integrates and harmonizes 1) The state-wide “traditional” electronic health record (EHR), 2) Measures of social and structural determinants of health based on geocoding, 3) The prospective collection of data from the FIT Core, and 4) genomics and sample availability from the MSK Biobank. The Data Mart will expand our core linkage and maximize MSK assessment based on the computable (computer data derived) phenotypes developed and refined during our first P30. In Aim 3, we will foster growth of the Musculoskeletal Function, Imaging, and Tissue (FIT) Resource Core to provide standardized assessments of musculoskeletal health and expand the availability of biospecimens to facilitate exploration of musculoskeletal health and disease. We will innovate our resource Core (FIT Core) by taking the Core “on the road’ to the community health centers and organizations, diversifying our tested population to develop race and ethnicity specific Z scores. We will also perform whole exome sequencing on DNA collected from the participants to expand the utility of the MSK functional (physical function), morphologic (imaging), and computable (electronic health record) phenotypes by linking with genomic data. These goals will serve to promote and advance clinical research in MSK disorders leading to prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure for ALL individuals.
