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.

Protection against sickle cell disease nephropathy by nitrated fatty acids
The research plan is relevant to public health because it proposes a novel pharmacological strategy that induces endogenous cytoprotective mechanisms and inhibits inflammation to prevent renal dysfunction in sickle cell disease. Renal dysfunction accounts for approximately 15% of all mortality associated with sickle cell disease, a condition that affects 100,000 Americans and 0.3 billion people worldwide. Thus, this proposal is significant to the NIH mission in that it seeks to apply fundamental knowledge to enhance health, lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability.

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.
