Improving awareness of women with hypertension: ROAR (Rural, Obese, At Risk) - Leadership Administrative Core (LAC)

超过三分之一的女性患有心血管疾病(CVD)，许多人没有意识到这些风险。 高血压是心血管疾病的一个主要可改变的危险因素，美国约47%的成年人患有高血压。在~85% 在病例中，高血压的原因不明，只有~50%的服药患者获得血液 压力控制。限制心血管疾病过早死亡的一个关键障碍是缺乏对 心血管疾病的风险。我们位于美国东南部的地理位置将有助于我们的影响。疾病的流行 高血压和肥胖在GA、MS和SC中很高，高血压的患病率和相关风险很高 并不是在所有人口中都是平等的。美国黑人的高血压患病率是 世界上最高的。咆哮的总体目标是改变学术界和社区对性的理解 作为考虑高血压的生物学变量(SABV)。咆哮的领导行政核心 (Lac)将为所有ROAR方案活动、调查人员和工作人员提供至关重要的支持。的目标 ROAR-LAC将对整个ROAR计划提供指导、监督、支持和评估 包括研究项目和职业提升核心，2)协调沟通和协作 跨越三家Roar机构，以及3)与SCORE财团合作，最大限度地发挥我们的影响，扩大 为学员提供机会，并促进在CVD的SABV方面的新合作。ROAR-LAC将监测、评估、 并支持该计划的各个方面，以确保实现我们的目标。这将通过以下方式实现 4目标。目标1是促进和协调Roar业务运营。Roar-LAC负责 人事、协调、服务集中、财务管理等事项。目标2是 通过Roar和Score Consortium促进沟通。ROAR-LAC在以下活动之间架起桥梁 与美国国立卫生研究院、奥古斯塔大学、南卡罗来纳大学医学院和 密西西比医疗中心的。目标3是组织和协调对咆哮和咆哮活动的审查。 ROAR-LAC将协调、制定和提交整个计划的评估和报告，包括 组织项目评审和试点项目的同行评审。目标4是促进和整合 考虑将SABV纳入Roar机构和当地社区的研究文化。咆哮-LAC将 帮助建立一个围绕SABV研究概念建立的社区，并加强机构和内部 通过在Roar上传播信息，实施机构方案。咆哮的影响将是 从SABV的发展考虑推进科技进步和培养下一代领导者 和CVD的进展，促进将全面提供的一系列教育内容的开发 ，并促进社区对心血管健康重要性的认识和 BP压力控制。ROAR-LAC将通过保证开放的通信，帮助确保ROAR的成功， 行政支持、透明的财政和强有力的领导。

More than 1 in 3 women are living with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and many are unaware of the risks. Hypertension is a major modifiable risk factor for CVD, and ~47% of adults in the US have hypertension. In ~85% of cases, the cause of hypertension is unknown and only ~50% of patients taking medication achieve blood pressure control. A critical barrier to limiting premature death from CVD is lack of awareness surrounding the risks of CVD. Our location in the Southeast of the US will contribute to our impact. The prevalence of hypertension and obesity are high in GA, MS, and SC, and the prevalence of hypertension and associated risk is not equal among all populations. The prevalence of hypertension in Black people in the US is among the highest in the world. The overall goal of ROAR is to transform academic and community understanding of sex as a biological variable (SABV) in the consideration of hypertension. The ROAR Leadership Administrative Core (LAC) will provide vital support for all ROAR programmatic activities, investigators, and staff. The goals of ROAR-LAC are to 1) provide direction, oversight, support, and assessment of the entire ROAR program including the research projects and career enhancement core, 2) coordinate communication and collaboration across the three ROAR institutions, and 3) work with the SCORE consortium to maximize our impact, expand opportunities for trainees, and promote new collaborations in SABV in CVD. ROAR-LAC will monitor, evaluate, and support to all aspects of the program to ensure our goals are achieved. This will be accomplished through 4 objectives. Objective 1 is to facilitate and coordinate ROAR business operations. ROAR-LAC is responsible for matters of personnel, coordination, centralization of services, and fiscal management. Objective 2 is to stimulate communication across ROAR and with the SCORE Consortium. ROAR-LAC bridges the activities of ROAR with the NIH, Augusta University, the University of South Carolina School of Medicine, and the University of Mississippi Medical Center. Objective 3 is to organize and coordinate review of ROAR and ROAR activities. ROAR-LAC will coordinate, develop, and submit assessments and reports across the program, including organization of program review and peer-review of pilot programs. Objective 4 is to promote and integrate the consideration of SABV into the research culture of the ROAR institutions and local communities. ROAR-LAC will help develop a community built around the concept of SABV research and strengthen institutional and inter- institutional programs through the dissemination of information across ROAR. The impact of ROAR will be to advance science and training of the next generation of leaders in the consideration of SABV on the development and progression of CVD, facilitate the development of a range of educational content that will be fully available to the Consortium, and promote increased community awareness of the importance of cardiovascular health and BP pressure control. ROAR-LAC will help ensure the success of ROAR by guaranteeing open communication, administrative support, transparent finances, and strong leadership.
