Conflict of Interest

The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Efficacy of Potassium Nitrate in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Heart Failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a highly prevalent condition associated with high morbidity and mortality, for which no effective pharmacologic therapies are available. This randomized double-blinded cross-over trial will enroll 76 patients with HFpEF to test the hypothesis that potassium nitrate will improve exercise capacity, quality of life and key physiologic adaptations to exercise in HFpEF, including: vasodilatory reserve, the vasodilatory reserve in exercising muscle, LV systolic and diastolic function, muscle oxidative capacity and late systolic left ventricular afterload, which induces LV diastolic dysfunction and remodeling.

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.
