AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDY OF KIDNEY DISEASE AND HYPERTENSION (AASK) COHORT STUD

这个子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和调查员(PI)可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可能会出现在其他CRISE条目中。列出的机构是针对中心的，而不一定是针对调查员的机构。AASK队列研究的主要目标是前瞻性地确定患有高血压相关肾病并接受推荐抗高血压治疗的非裔美国人肾脏功能的长期病程和肾脏疾病进展的危险因素。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The primary objective of the AASK Cohort Study is to determine prospectively the long term course of kidney function and risk factors for kidney disease progression in African-Americans with hypertension-related kidney disease who recieve recommended anti-hypertensive therapy.
