The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is working to design and deploy Registry of Patient Registries (RoPR), which will create a searchable central listing of patient registries in the United States that will be integrated with ClinicalTrials.gov. As part of this project, broad consultations were carried out with relevant groups. Staff of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) participated extensively in these consultations.

Collaborated on preparing the Report on Carcinogens (RoC) evaluation of ortho-toluidine. The listing status of ortho-toluidine was changed from reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen to known to be a human carcinogen in the 13th RoC (2014). The RoC is a congressionally mandated, science-based, public health report that identifies substances in our environment that are cancer hazards for people living in the U.S.

The President''s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) non-communicable diseases (NCD) project, a collaboration between PEPFAR implementing partners, has begun a two-year project with the goal of articulating research priorities to incorporate prevention, care and treatment for non-communicable diseases into HIV/AIDS platforms in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The PEPFAR-NCD project will focus on People Living with HIV (PLWH), many of whom are being treated successfully for HIV, but who are increasingly experiencing co-morbid diseases or conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and depression. This project will produce landscape analyses and establish research agendas, priorities and products to enhance NCD service delivery through PEPFAR platforms.
