Obesity Related Glomerulopathy in Adolescent Women: The Effect of Body Surface Area.

Background: Adolescent obesity, a risk factor for cardiorenal morbidity in adulthood, has reached epidemic proportions. Obesity-related glomerulopathy (ORG) has an early reversible stage of hyperfiltration. Age-appropriate formulae for eGFR, which are standardized to ideal body surface area (BSA) and provide assessment of kidney function in ml/min/1.

An e-leadership training academy for practicing clinicians in primary care and public health settings.

Leadership is an essential competency for clinicians; however, these skills are not a standard part of health professionals' education and training. Access to resources (time, money) is frequently cited as a barrier for clinicians to participate in leadership development programs. We aimed to tackle this barrier within postgraduate health professions education and training through establishing an online e-Leadership Academy.

Using attendance data for social network analysis of a community-engaged research partnership.

Background: The Rockefeller University Center for Clinical and Translational Science (RU-CCTS) and Clinical Directors Network (CDN), a Practice-Based Research Network (PBRN), fostered a community-academic research partnership involving Community Health Center (CHCs) clinicians, laboratory scientists, clinical researchers, community, and patient partners. From 2011 to 2018, the partnership designed and completed Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Project (CAMP1), an observational study funded by the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), and CAMP2, a Comparative Effectiveness Research Study funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). We conducted a social network analysis (SNA) to characterize this Community-Engaged Research (CEnR) partnership.
