Background: Recruitment registries are tools to decrease the time and cost required to identify and enroll eligible participants into clinical research. Despite their potential to increase the efficiency of accrual, few analyses have assessed registry effectiveness. We investigated the outcomes of study referrals from the Consent-to-Contact (C2C) registry, a recruitment registry at the University of California, Irvine.

Objective: Here we describe the strategies we used in the PROAME study for recruiting and retaining illiterate older adults from low socioeconomical levels in a non-pharmacological trial.

Method: To investigate the relation of AHT with change in cognitive function and postmortem brain pathology, we evaluated 4,207 older persons without known dementia at enrollment and a subset of 1880 participants who died and came to autopsy.

University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA, USA.

Background: Recruitment challenges in people with and without Down syndrome (DS) can delay research progress and risk sample bias. This study identified and quantified differences in research attitudes across populations of research enrollment decision-makers for individuals with and without DS.

Method: We compared scores on the Research Attitudes Questionnaire (RAQ) of individuals enrolled in two recruitment registries: the UCI Consent to Contact [C2C (N = 4818)] and DS-Connect (N = 976).
