The purpose of the NGSP (formerly the National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program) is to standardize Hemoglobin A1c test results to those of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) and the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS), which established the direct relationships between HbA1c levels and outcome risks in patients with diabetes. NIDDK has provided funding for NGSP research initiatives, and NIDDK Extramural Program staff have served on committees.

OD/DPCPSI/OAR, NIMH, NIAID
|
A working group of representatives from six federal agencies involved in developing and implementing the NHAS was tasked with carefully listening to community input and evaluating options for possible quality of life measures, data sources, and targets that could be adopted and implemented. As a result of their work and community input, the Office of National AIDS Policy ultimately adopted five indicators that reflect the multi-dimensional nature of quality of life among people with HIV. Indicators address self-rated health status, mental health, food insecurity, employment status, and unstable housing or homelessness.

The mission of the IMbedded Pragmatic Alzheimers disease (AD) and AD Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) Clinical Trials (IMPACT) Collaboratory is to build the nation’s capacity to conduct pragmatic clinical trials of interventions embedded within health care systems for people living with dementia and their care partners.
The IMPACT Collaboratory accomplishes this mission by: developing and disseminating best practice research methods; supporting the design and conduct of pragmatic trials, including pilot studies; building investigator capacity through training and knowledge generation; catalyzing collaboration among stakeholders, healthcare providers, and investigators; and ensuring the research includes culturally-tailored interventions and people from diverse and under-represented backgrounds.
