Abstract

Multiple ongoing, government-funded national efforts longitudinally collect health data and biospecimens for precision medicine research with ascertainment strategies increasingly emphasizing underrepresented groups in biomedical research. We surveyed chronic kidney disease patients from an academic, public integrated tertiary care system in Cleveland, Ohio, to examine local attitudes toward participation in large-scale government-funded studies. Responses (n = 103) indicate the majority (71%) would participate in a hypothetical national precision medicine cohort and were willing to send biospecimens to a national repository and share de-identified data, but <50% of respondents were willing to install a phone app to track personal data. The majority of participants (62%) indicated that return of research results was very important, and the majority (54%) also wanted all of their research-collected health and genetic data returned. Response patterns did not differ by race/ethnicity. Overall, we found high willingness to participate among this Cleveland patient population already participating in a local genetic study. These data suggest that despite common perceptions, subjects from communities traditionally underrepresented in genetic research will participate and agree to store samples and health data in repositories. Furthermore, most participants want return of research results, which will require a plan to provide these data in a secure, accessible, and understandable manner.

  • Significantly fewer patients support the use of smartphone apps to track lifestyle, behavior or environmental influences.

    “Significantly fewer patients support the use of smartphone apps to track lifestyle, behavior or environmental influences [72, 76, 77].”

    From Patients’ and professionals’ views related to ethical issues in precision medicine: a mixed research synthesis (2021) · cites this paper as [72]

    The Results report that 44.66% of surveyed chronic kidney disease patients were willing to install a phone app to track lifestyle, behaviors, and environmental exposures, compared with 71.29% willing to participate in a biorepository. The Discussion likewise describes about a 25-percentage-point gap. The paper does not report a statistical test establishing that this difference was significant; its significance tests concern responses stratified by race or sex. (LLM, conf=0.85)

  • Among patients there is also a high readiness to participate in trials and donate data or biospecimens.

    “Among patients there is also a high readiness to participate in trials and donate data or biospecimens [62, 70, 72, 76, 77, 98, 99], but trust in professionals [98, 101], costs, receiving counseling about test results and privacy [101], as well as the donor’s religion and culture [98] seem to be important for the decision.”

    From Patients’ and professionals’ views related to ethical issues in precision medicine: a mixed research synthesis (2021) · cites this paper as [72]

    The Results report that 71.29% of surveyed chronic kidney disease patients were willing to participate in a national biorepository, and the Abstract says respondents were willing to send biospecimens and share de-identified data. The study assessed willingness to join a hypothetical research cohort, not willingness to participate in clinical trials. (LLM, conf=0.84)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Several quantitative studies indicate that patients want to be fully informed about tests, the results and treatment options.

    “Several quantitative studies indicate that patients want to be fully informed about tests [71], the results [51, 71, 72, 78] and treatment options [29].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
