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.

Brain-Centered Therapy versus Medication for Urgency Urinary Incontinence_An RCT
The proposed research is relevant to public health because it offers the potential of finding a durable and effective treatment for urgency incontinence, a costly and burgeoning public health problem which will increase over time. The positive impact of this work, relevant to the NIH mission, is that it defines a useful & safe mind/body intervention, hypnotherapy, to improve health of women affected by urgency incontinence, increases evidence-based knowledge of hypnotherapy's durability & efficacy in urgency incontinence treatment, and utilizes a translational research tool (functional magnetic resonance brain imaging) to build a biological foundation for study of hypnotherapy and other mind/body therapies.

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.
