Interventions that Address Structural Racism to Reduce Kidney Health Disparities Research Coordinating Center

项目摘要 认识到结构性种族主义对少数群体肾脏健康的重大影响， 美国国立卫生研究院正在创建一个新的联盟，专注于解决结构性种族主义的干预措施，以减少 肾脏健康差异。该联盟将汇集来自六个干预措施的研究团队 开展社区参与干预研究的网站，以解决结构性种族主义和减少 肾脏健康和疾病之间的差异。我们建议作为研究人员 财团协调中心(RCC)。杜克RCC将利用广泛的机构 杜克大学的资源和专业知识，以提供行政领导和研究 协调以确保财团的无缝运营和财团的成功进行 研究；支持财团严格的数据收集、数据管理和数据分析 研究；促进肾脏研究合作、能力建设和劳动力多样化 健康公平研究。三个紧密结合的核心将领导红十字会的核心活动。这个 行政和协调核心将提供行政、业务和后勤支持 该联盟包括协调会议、制定基于网络的安全通信 和协作平台，支持计划管理和监管提交， 管理辅助学习的机会池，并不断评估和提高 财团运作。数据管理和分析核心将有助于最终设计 联合体研究，为多站点联合体研究提供数据监控，并支持统计 对多站点联合研究的分析和对通用数据元素的汇集分析 财团。协作和社区参与核心将促进一个充满活力的 财团内外的协作研究社区，通过促进在 财团会议和讲习班，支持向更广泛的人传播财团成果 研究和外行社区，将选定的NIH职业发展奖获得者整合到相关 财团活动，以及让早期职业培训生从代表不足的群体接触到肾脏- 有重点的结构性种族主义学术工作，以成功实施卫生公平研究 和干预措施。多学科的RCC团队将共同确保成功完成 针对肾脏健康差异的多项干预试验，并建立一个多样化和可持续的 社区研究人员和社区合作伙伴专注于改善肾脏健康 边缘人群。

PROJECT ABSTRACT Recognizing the significant impact of structural racism on kidney health in minority populations, the NIH is creating a new Consortium focused on Interventions that Address Structural Racism to Reduce Kidney Health Disparities. The Consortium will bring together research teams from six Intervention Sites to conduct community-engaged intervention studies to address structural racism and reduce disparities across the spectrum of kidney health and disease. We propose to serve as the Research Coordinating Center (RCC) for the Consortium. The Duke RCC will leverage extensive institutional resources and expertise at Duke University to provide administrative leadership and research coordination to ensure seamless operations of the Consortium and successful conduct of Consortium studies; support rigorous data collection, data management, and data analysis for Consortium studies; and foster research collaboration, capacity-building, and workforce diversification in kidney health equity research. Three closely integrated cores will lead the core activities of the RCC. The Administrative and Coordination Core will provide administrative, operational, and logistical support to the Consortium, including coordinating meetings, developing a secure web-based communications and collaboration platform, supporting program management and regulatory submissions, administering an opportunity pool for ancillary studies, and continually evaluating and enhancing Consortium operations. The Data Management and Analysis Core will contribute to the final design of Consortium studies, provide data monitoring for multi-site Consortium studies, and support statistical analysis for multi-site Consortium studies and pooled analyses of common data elements across the Consortium. The Collaboration and Community Engagement Core will foster a vibrant and collaborative research community within and beyond the Consortium by facilitating discussion at Consortium meetings and workshops, supporting dissemination of Consortium results to the broader research and lay communities, integrating selected NIH career development awardees in relevant Consortium activities, and exposing early-career trainees from underrepresented groups to kidney- focused structural racism scholarly work in order to successfully implement health equity research and interventions. Together, the multidisciplinary RCC team will ensure the successful completion of multiple intervention trials targeting disparities in kidney health and build a diverse and sustainable community of researchers and community partners focused on improving kidney health in marginalized populations.
