Dig Into University Researchers' Outside Income and Conflicts of Interest
Published Dec. 6, 2019
This database was last updated in December 2019 and should only be used as a historical snapshot. There may be new or amended records not reflected here.
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.

Risk and protective factors for SGA-induced metabolic syndrome in bipolar youth
Although second generation antipsychotic (SGA) medications are efficacious for the treatment of acute mania in children and adolescents, they frequently precipitate and/or exacerbate adverse cardiometabolic symptoms and lead to weight gain and obesity. Convergent translational evidence suggests that long-chain omega-3 fatty acid deficiency exhibited by first-episode adolescent manic patients may represent a modifiable risk factor for SGA-induced metabolic dysregulation through opposing effects on stearoyl-CoA desaturase. Here we propose to prospectively evaluate whether low long-chain omega-3 fatty acid status increases risk for SGA-induced adverse cardiometabolic symptoms and weight gain in first-episode bipolar adolescents (Phase I), and determine whether increasing long-chain omega-3 fatty acid status has protective effects in a controlled intervention trial (Phase II).

We're still reporting about conflicts of interest. Is there something you'd like to tell us about this disclosure?
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.
