Background: Women Veterans are the fastest growing segment of Veterans Health Administration (VHA) users. This dramatic growth has created challenges for VHA. Gender disparities persist in cardiovascular (CV) and diabetes risk factor control, and rates of depression, anxiety, and mental health comorbidity are disproportionately high among women Veterans. Furthermore, a high rate of women Veterans' attrition from VA care, along with organizational barriers to care, substantiate that organizational changes are needed in order to engage and retain women Veteran VHA users in evidence-based, patient-centered care. Objectives: The Enhancing Mental and Physical health of Women through Engagement and Retention (EMPOWER) QUERI addresses VHA Blueprint for Excellence Strategy 6, by advancing "personalized, proactive, patient-centered" care models, and Transformational Strategy 7.2.g by implementation of innovative care models in women Veterans' health care." The EMPOWER QUERI Program is designed to improve women Veterans' engagement and retention in evidence-based care for three high priority health conditions, i.e., prediabetes, cardiovascular, and mental health. To achieve this impact goal, we propose a cohesive portfolio of projects with the following aims: (1) To use an evidence-based implementation strategy that emphasizes local tailoring of care models, multilevel stakeholder engagement, and systematic evaluation of complex implementation processes in order to enrich organizational capacity for innovations in women Veterans' VHA health care; (2) To implement personalized, proactive, patient-centered innovations in VHA women's health that are acceptable, feasible, satisfactory, relevant, and effective for both providers and patients, thereby encouraging women Veterans' engagement and retention and sustainability of the innovations; and, (3) To generate implementation "playbooks" for our partners that are scalable and serve as guidance for future implementation of a broader array of evidence-based women's health programs and policy. Methods: Three projects will be conducted by an experienced multidisciplinary team. "Tailoring VA's Diabetes Prevention Program to Women Veterans' Needs" is a one-year QI project to be conducted in VA Greater Los Angeles women's health clinics. Women Veterans with prediabetes will select an in-person, peer-led or online gender-specific, evidence-based diabetes prevention program to address their risk behaviors and health conditions. "Facilitating Cardiovascular Risk Screening and Risk Reduction in Women Veterans" will increase identification of CV risk among women Veterans, enhance patient/provider communication and shared decision-making about CV risk, and provide a supportive, coordinated health coaching intervention to facilitate women Veterans' engagement and retention in appropriate health services. "Implementation of Tailored Collaborative Care for Women Veterans" will evaluate implementation of an evidence-based collaborative care model tailored to enhance provider- and system-level capabilities to address women Veterans' anxiety and depression treatment needs, thereby improving organizational primary care-mental health integration (PC-MHI) effectiveness and women Veterans' engagement and retention in PC-MHI. Both implementation research studies will use a modified stepped wedge design and will apply the evidence-based Replicating Effective Programs (REP) implementation strategy. Mixed methods implementation evaluations will focus on investigating primary implementation outcomes of adoption, acceptability, feasibility, and reach. Multilevel stakeholder engagement will be prioritized. Program-wide organizational-, provider-, and patient-level measures and tools will be utilized to enhance synergy, productivity, and impact. As a coherent program of women's health implementation research and quality improvement, the proposed EMPOWER QUERI will constitute a major milestone in achieving BPE strategies and realizing women Veterans' engagement and, ultimately, empowerment in our VHA system.
The purpose of this study is to see if bemedoic acid (ETC-1002) is effective versus placebo in patients with high cardiovascular risk and elevated LDL cholesterol not adequately controlled by their current therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) is effective and safe versus placebo in patients with elevated LDL cholesterol and who are statin-intolerant.
A randomized, open-label, single dose, crossover study to compare the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the co-administration of metformin SR and rosuvastatin and JLP-1310 in healthy male volunteers
This is a phase 1, open label, two-cohort, single-sequence, crossover study
1) to test HDL function comprehensively in healthy and diseased individuals; 2) to evaluate if this test correlates with cardiovascular risk, independent of traditional risk factors; 3) and to differentiate effects of lipid-modifying or antiatherosclerotic drugs on HDL function and composition
To investigate the pharmacokinetic properties and safety after administration of HCP1105 and co-administration of HGP0918, HGP0816 in healthy male volunteers
This study will investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of VK2809 in lowering LDL-C and liver fat content in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and fatty liver disease. The primary efficacy endpoint is percent change from baseline LDL-C at the end of the treatment period (Week 12). Secondary endpoints include effects on liver fat content and other liver and lipid markers, as well as effects on safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) measurements.
Aims: To investigate whether acute ingestions of palm oil will have an effect on appetite regulation Design: A randomized, single blind, cross over design including 4 single study visits separated by a week. Visit 1 is an acclimatization visit followed by visit 2,3, and 4 where different types of fat will be given. Population: 12 healthy males and females aged between 18 and 60 years with body mass index (BMI) between 18.5- 29.9kg/m2 and normal fasting plasma glucose and no evidence of insulin resistance will be recruited. No-pre existing morbidity including cardiac, hepatic or renal disease, history of diabetes, hypertension or hyperlipidaemia. Treatment: Acclimatization visit: At visit 1, all participants will be given a milkshake like drink containing fat, protein and carbohydrate. A cannula will be inserted for the duration of the study day but no blood will be taken. Studies show than during the first visit stress response can affect the metabolic response to the study drink resulting in inaccurate results. Study visit 2,3,4: following the acclimatization visit, participants will attend 3 more study visits separated by a week to test the metabolic response to the following fats: palm olein, interesterified palm olein and soybean oil in random order. Participants will be asked to complete a visual analogue scale questionnaire about their appetite at each time point. Fasting and postprandial plasma glucose, insulin, appetite hormones and lipids will be measured.
