Conflict of Interest

Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Glauser Life Sciences, Inc.

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)

Dr. Jason Gardner is the principal investigator on the above referenced grant sponsored by the NIH-NIAAA. Dr. Nicholas Gilpin is acting as a co-investigator. The first specific aim of this project is to assess the mechanisms by which ethanol causes fibroblast activation and fibrosis. The second specific aim is to test the prediction that chronic exposure to ethanol accelerates cardiac dysfunction in the volume overloaded heart by promoting oxidative stress and fibrosis. As required by CM-35, Dr. Gilpin disclosed that he has a potential conflict for this project due to his relationship with a company whose business interests are aligned with the aims of this grant.

Listed Research Project
Ethanol-induced cardiac fibrosis and dysfunction are mediated by NADPH oxidases

The chronic abuse of alcohol causes alcoholic cardiomyopathy, which is characterized by cardiac fibrosis, ventricular chamber enlargement, and heart failure. Treatment and prevention strategies are limited, as the damaging cardiac effects of chronic alcohol abuse are poorly understood. Our studies will identify key mechanisms of alcohol-induced fibrosis and cardiac dysfunction, which can then be targeted for therapeutic benefit.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
