Translating Research Into Action for Diabetes (TRIAD) Legacy Study - Collaboratin

项目简介：糖尿病是美国第五大致死原因，预计从1995年到2025年发病率将增加42%。糖尿病还增加了发病率，每年的总成本估计为1320亿美元。糖尿病转化研究(TRIAD)研究使用多站点协作模型来检查系统和患者层面的因素在管理性护理环境中对糖尿病护理的作用。这一模式已经成功地出版了60多份同行评议的出版物，有助于公众了解这些环境中的糖尿病护理。在最初的三合会研究期间，协调中心促进了这些协作中心之间的合作。自2001年以来，UMDNJ一直主办三合会研究协调中心。目的：我们建议在三合会遗产研究期间，继续担任这项计划的协调中心，并继续促进和协调六个合作中心内的三合会调查人员之间持续的合作关系。方法：在三年的遗留期间，我们将继续提供协调服务，同时专注于发展三合会的能力，以使用新的方法和途径促进合作。在此期间，我们会协调及安排一次三合会传统出版及介绍委员会的面对面会议及六次电话会议/视像会议，同时继续更新及维持三合会网站的内容及功能(包括公开及仅供调查员使用的部分)。此外，我们将继续为工作组和论文撰写会议提供便利，这些会议涉及来自多个合作中心的调查人员。结果：在三合会遗产研究期间，这种多中心合作的结果预计将增加18至36本以三合会为基础的同行评议出版物。好处：传播这些来自Triad研究的额外发现可能会为改善管理性护理环境中向糖尿病患者提供的护理质量的努力提供信息。

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT: Diabetes is the fifth leading cause of death in the US and is predicted to increase in incidence by42% from 1995 to 2025. Diabetes also contributes to increased rates of morbidity with overall estimated costs of $132 billion annually. The Translating Research Into Action for Diabetes (TRIAD) study has used a multi-site collaborative model to examine the role of system- and patient-level factors on diabetes care in managed care settings. This model has successfully produced over 60 peer-reviewed publications contributing to public understanding of diabetes care in these settings. Throughout the initial TRIAD study period the collaboration between these Collaborating Centers has been facilitated by a Coordinating Center. Since 2001 UMDNJ has hosted the TRIAD Study Coordinating Center. Purpose: We propose to continue to serve as the Coordinating Center for this project during the TRIAD Legacy Study period and to continue to facilitate and coordinate the ongoing collaborative relationships between TRIAD investigators at each of the six Collaborating Centers. Methods: During the three-year legacy period we will continue to provide coordination services while focusing on developing TRIAD capacities to use new methods and approaches for facilitating collaboration. During this period we will coordinate and staff one in-person and six telephone/videoconference meetings of the TRIAD Legacy Publications and Presentations committee while continuing to update and maintain the content and functionality of the TRIAD websites (both public and investigator only sections). In addition, we will continue to facilitate working group and paper writing meetings that involve investigators from multiple Collaborating Centers. Outcomes: The results of this multi-center collaboration in the TRIAD Legacy Study period are expected to be between 18 and 36 additional TRIAD-based peer reviewed publications. Benefit: Dissemination of these additional findings from the TRIAD study may inform efforts to improve the quality of care provided in managed care settings to patients with diabetes.
