DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Women's health is influenced by biological, behavioral, cultural, socio-economic and environmental factors. Moreover, several oral-systemic linkages associated with poor oral health (i.e. periodontitis; oral bone loss; dental caries) that solely or disproportionally affect women include various infectious (HIV/AIDS), chronic (cardiovascular disease), behavioral (eating disorders), psychosocial (stress) and socio-economic health conditions (poverty). Although the importance of expanding women's oral-systemic research has been highlighted by Healthy People 2020 and The Office of Research on Women's Health, little collaboration between and among disciplines occur. Specifically in Florida, women's oral-health disparities are evident: pregnant women have higher adverse rates in health outcomes (i.e. infant mortality, low birth weight, preterm birth) and are less likely to isit a dentist compared to women in the U.S. Thus, we propose a unique, focused, regionally-based (State of Florida) conference, "Transforming Women's Health: Discovery, Development and Delivery," which aims to address complex oral-systemic health issues specific to women and bring together researchers, providers and policy experts in public health, medicine, dentistry, nursing, pharmacy and the social sciences. This paradigm shift has been institutionalized at the University of South Florida (USF) by the creation of the Center for Transdisciplinary Research on Women's Health (CTR-WH), Co-Directed by the PI. Through a transdisciplinary approach, the proposed conference will facilitate patient-centered collaborative care that has the potential to improve health care access, quality, safety, efficiency and effectiveness. The proposed conference will focus on the emerging evidence and gaps related to oral-systemic research (research development), highlight the need for a transdisciplinary approach and team science to decrease morbidity and mortality (research design and methodology), and disseminate novel findings and technologies to improve health care access, quality and outcomes (dissemination and implementation). Moreover, health services research (e.g., health IT, prevention and care management; health care innovations and emerging areas) will be discussed, including opportunities for communication and application of technology to improve prevention, early detection and treatment of oral-systemic health conditions. Based on adult learning and team science, participants will be engaged in skill-based workshops, question-and-answer sessions with nationally renowned speakers, panel discussion and group roundtables in order to meet conference aims. Conference sessions will be evaluated via qualitative and quantitative methods to determine the extent to which learning objective are met, the effectiveness of teaching/learning methods, the usefulness of conference material, and participant satisfaction. Conference proceedings will be disseminated through posting on the CTR-WH website, peer-reviewed scientific journal manuscripts, brief articles in public health media sources, and at regional, state, and national conferences to ensure findings reach stakeholders in Florida and beyond. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed conference aims to transform women's health by bringing together researchers, practitioners, policymakers and other key stakeholders from multiple disciplines such as public health, medicine and dentistry. Through nationally renowned speakers, workshops, panel discussions and group roundtables, this conference will address complex women's oral-systemic health conditions through a transdisciplinary approach. Such an approach to research, practice and policy is necessary to improve health and decrease disparities in women's health across the lifespan in Florida and beyond.

描述（由申请人提供）：妇女的健康受到生物、行为、文化、社会经济和环境因素的影响。此外，与口腔健康不良（即牙周炎、口腔骨质流失、龋齿）有关的几种口腔-全身联系，包括各种传染病（艾滋病毒/艾滋病）、慢性病（心血管疾病）、行为（饮食失调）、心理社会（压力）和社会经济健康状况（贫困），这些疾病单独或间接影响妇女。虽然2020年健康人和妇女健康研究办公室强调了扩大妇女口腔系统研究的重要性，但学科之间的合作很少。特别是在佛罗里达，妇女的口腔健康差异是显而易见的：孕妇在健康结果方面有更高的不良率（即婴儿死亡率，低出生体重，早产），并且与美国女性相比，不太可能去看牙医。（佛罗里达州）会议，“改变妇女健康：“发现、发展和交付”，旨在解决妇女特有的复杂的口腔系统健康问题，并汇集研究人员，公共卫生、医学、牙科、护理、药学和社会科学领域的供应商和政策专家。这种模式的转变已经在南佛罗里达大学（USF）制度化，成立了妇女健康跨学科研究中心（CTR-WH），由PI共同指导。通过跨学科的方法，拟议的会议将促进以患者为中心的协作护理，这有可能改善医疗保健的可及性、质量、安全、效率和有效性。拟议的会议将重点关注与口腔系统研究相关的新证据和差距（研究开发），强调需要跨学科方法和团队科学来降低发病率和死亡率（研究设计和方法），并传播新的发现和技术，以改善医疗保健的获取，质量和结果（传播和实施）。此外，卫生服务研究（例如，卫生信息技术、预防和护理管理;卫生保健创新和新兴领域），包括交流和应用技术的机会，以改善口腔系统健康状况的预防、早期发现和治疗。在成人学习和团队科学的基础上，与会者将参加以技能为基础的研讨会，与全国知名的演讲者进行问答，小组讨论和小组圆桌会议，以实现会议的目标。会议将通过定性和定量方法进行评估，以确定学习目标的实现程度，教学/学习方法的有效性，会议材料的有用性以及参与者的满意度。会议记录将通过在CTR-WH网站上发布，同行评审的科学期刊手稿，公共卫生媒体来源的简短文章以及区域，州和国家会议进行传播，以确保研究结果到达佛罗里达及其他地区的利益相关者。 公共卫生关系：拟议的会议旨在通过汇集来自公共卫生、医学和牙科等多个学科的研究人员、从业人员、政策制定者和其他关键利益攸关方，改变妇女的健康状况。通过全国知名的演讲者，研讨会，小组讨论和小组圆桌会议，这次会议将通过跨学科的方法解决复杂的妇女的口腔系统健康状况。这种研究、实践和政策的方法对于改善健康和减少佛罗里达及其他地区妇女一生中的健康差距是必要的。
