This proposal is submitted by Research Triangle Institute (RTI) and the University of North Carolina (UNC) to serve as the Data Coordinating Center (DCC) for the NICHD Global Network for Women's and Children's Health Research. A strong team of scientists including the proposed PI, Dr. T.D. Hartwell, and Co-PIs, Drs. Rao and Poole of RTI, and faculty from UNC will lead the project and will provide overall study coordination, including study design, data management, statistical analysis, materials development, biological specimen collection, training in common procedures, implementation of quality control procedures, and expertise in maternal and child health. An experienced staff of statisticians, programmers, data coordinators, epidemiologist, medical anthropologists and international and maternal and child health specialists have been assembled to support the Network. All of this staff have a great deal of experience in coordinating multicenter studies. We propose to have an Internal Management Committee oversee the DCC operations for the Network which will set up DCC Protocol Teams to work with Network Investigators on each protocol. We proposed to use computer assisted data collection methods to collect the majority of the data for the various Network protocols (e.g., Distributed Data Entry). We have used these methods in many multisite studies. Our communications network will be built around e-mail and a project web site which will be used to disseminate project reports and other information whenever possible. We propose to assist Research Units in purchasing computer equipment for the study, to coordinate training site staff in each country in assessment procedures and intervention delivery, to assist in tracking, training, and quality control for biological specimen collection, to assist in coordinating and analyzing data for qualitative studies, to assist in materials development, to analyze the study data and to assist in manuscript preparation. In addition, RTI/UNC will provide logistic support for the entire study. This includes setting up conference calls and meetings, taking minutes at these meetings, and distributing study materials. We also will hire on-site data collection coordinators in each country.

该建议由研究三角研究所（RTI）和北卡罗来纳大学（UNC）提交，以作为NICHD全球妇女和儿童健康研究网络的数据协调中心（DCC）。一支强大的科学家团队，包括拟议的PI，T.D。Hartwell博士和Co-Pis，Drs。 RTI的Rao和Poole以及UNC的教师将领导该项目，并将提供整体研究协调，包括研究设计，数据管理，统计分析，材料开发，生物标本收集，常见程序培训，实施质量控制程序以及孕产妇和儿童健康方面的专业知识。经验丰富的统计学家，程序员，数据协调员，流行病学家，医学人类学家以及国际以及母婴健康专家的工作人员已经组装以支持该网络。所有这些员工在协调多中心研究方面具有丰富的经验。我们建议让一个内部管理委员会监督该网络的DCC运营，该委员会将建立DCC协议团队，以与网络调查人员合作每个协议。我们建议使用计算机辅助数据收集方法来收集各种网络协议（例如分布式数据输入）的大多数数据。我们在许多多站点研究中都使用了这些方法。我们的通信网络将围绕电子邮件和项目网站构建，该网站将在可能的情况下用于传播项目报告和其他信息。我们建议协助研究单位为研究购买计算机设备，以协调每个国家 /地区的培训站点员工进行评估程序和干预交付，以协助跟踪，培训和质量控制生物样品收集，以协调和分析数据以协调定性研究，以帮助材料开发，以帮助材料开发，以协助研究数据和协助制定制造。此外，RTI/UNC将为整个研究提供后勤支持。这包括设置电话会议和会议，在这些会议上花费几分钟以及分发学习材料。我们还将在每个国家聘请现场数据收集协调员。
