OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To develop a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and drug resistance. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We designed core and loop primers sets utilizing the NEB LAMP Primer Design Tool. Each set contained four or six primers targeting major-immediate early genes – essential for viral entry/replication – or regions known to confer resistance to the antiviral drug ganciclovir. Optimization of reactions conditions was achieved employing DNA reference materials. Reactions were visualized through a change in color as amplification reactions accumulated. Successful reaction conditions were selected based on specific amplification products in less than 60 minutes. Limits of detection were evaluated as the main performance outcome. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Genomic data were extracted and used to design a series of LAMP primers (48 total) that aimed to detect specific genomic regions of CMV. Using this strategy, we successfully designed and identified eight primer sets that showed high 100% sensitivity and 100 % specificity, when detecting > 1.00 x 10^5 copies/mL of CMV gDNA. We are in the process of characterizing a new set of primers to determine the diagnostic utility of a LAMP assay in detecting selected single-nucleotide mutations at the UL97 loci. The expected outcomes at completion include: (1) the identification of LAMP primers to detect drug-resistance mutants, (2) defining optimal conditions for successful reactions, and (3) determining limits of detection for subsequent validation with clinical specimens. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: CMV infection remains one of the most dangerous infectious agents for immunocompromised hosts, newborns, and unborn children. This study will describe a proof-of-concept LAMP assay for the genotypic detection of drug resistance in CMV-infected individuals and hence, create new avenues for selection of effective therapies to treat CMV disease.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Racial identity, one’s perception of that identity, and their perception of how others view their racial identity influences mental health. We aimed to assess the relationship between childhood trauma exposure, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and postpartum depression symptoms with individual Black identity in adulthood. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We examined whether racial identity, as measured by the regard subsection of the Multidimensional Inventory of Black Identity (MIBI), was impacted by childhood trauma exposure and related to PTSD and depressive symptoms in a sample of pregnant persons (N= 215, Mage=27.5, SDage=5.3) who identified within the Black diaspora, seeking prenatal care at Grady Hospital in Atlanta, GA. The regard subsection of the MIBI determines extent to which individuals feel positively about membership within the Black group (private regard) and the extent to which they think others feel positively about the Black group (public regard). We assessed childhood trauma using Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) and depression and PTSD symptoms with Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, and PTSD Checklist for DSM-5, respectively. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Public regard (pubR) and private regard (privR) were significantly negatively correlated with childhood emotional abuse, emotional neglect, and overall childhood trauma exposure (all p’s.05). PrivR was significantly negatively correlated with both postpartum depression and PTSD symptoms (p DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Ethnic-racial identity formation is a critical aspect of our psychological well-being, beginning in childhood and continuing across one’s lifespan. Our findings suggest that childhood trauma impacts racial identity in persons of the Black diaspora, which may contribute to negative mental health outcomes, including PTSD and depression.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Leadership is an essential and recognized team science competency. To support the development of leadership skills at Mount Sinai, the LEAD (Leadership Emerging in Academic Departments) program, launched in 2016, delivers a structured 12-month blended learning program for junior faculty. The program aims to promote personal and professional leadership capacity, skills and behaviors. Following a competitive application process, 24 participants each year are selected to participate. In its second year, the challenge for the LEAD program leadership is to support alumni in fostering a culture of leadership that extends beyond the 12-month program. In order to promote a leadership community of practice and offer continued support to junior faculty, the LEAD Alumni program aims to bring former LEAD participants together to maintain motivation, share challenges and successes, meet with mentors and role models, and foster an ongoing community of practice that seeks to embed evidenced-based leadership culture at Mount Sinai. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The previous two cohorts of LEAD participants were approached to volunteer for the LEAD Alumni Forum working group. Four LEAD alumni came forward to form a self-selected working group. With input from the program leadership, the alumni working group is tasked with organizing regular events that bring the 48 previous LEAD participants together. The events provide the opportunity for individuals with expertise and a passion for leadership to create a supportive environment. This ultimately seeks to increase the transfer and utilization of leadership skills in practice, and promotes a culture of leadership. These alumni events also provide the opportunity for alumni to interact with senior leaders at Mount Sinai, thereby learning from role models within the organization. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Evaluating learning transfer and culture change is challenging, so a number of proxy measures will provide insight into the success of the Alumni Forum. Firstly, the number of LEAD Capstone projects implemented in practice, and the success of these initiatives, will provide insight into transfer of leadership learning to practice. Secondly, participants will complete a validated survey tool, Leadership Programs Outcome Measure (LPOM), which explores self-reported leadership change at a personal, organizational and community level. Finally, participants will be followed up in the long-term to track promotion, awards, and other formal or informal leadership positions assumed following engagement in the LEAD program and the subsequent LEAD Alumni Forum. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: It is hoped the LEAD Alumni program will enhance the ability of participants to implement leadership knowledge and skills to practice, which may subsequently advance organization and culture change. Fostering a community of practice will further the reach of the LEAD program and as the number of LEAD alumni grows, and the Alumni Forum may provide the supportive environment that allows these individuals to have real impact.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: A comparative evaluation of the mechanical properties of commonly used posterior spinal fusion assemblies will allow surgeons to choose an assembly based on desired properties. The results will better inform surgical decision making and may lead to improved patient outcomes. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the mechanical properties of three posterior spinal fusion assemblies commonly used to cross the cervicothoracic junction. Fusion success depends on immobilization of vertebrae. The results will better inform surgical decision making and may improve patient outcomes. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Three titanium alloy posterior spinal fusion assemblies intended to cross the cervicothoracic junction underwent static compressive bending, tensile bending, and torsion as described in ASTM F1717 to a torque of 2.5 Nm: 3.5mm rods (Assembly A), 3.5mm to 5.5mm dilating rods (Assembly B), and two 3.5mm rods connected to two 5.5mm rods (Assembly C). Five samples of each assembly were attached to ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene blocks via multiaxial screws for testing. The distance from the axis of rotation to the point of attachment of the rod and cervical screw was used as the lever arm to calculate the force required to create the desired torque for each test: lever arm of 37mm, requiring 67.6N of force to generate 2.5Nm of torque. Force and displacement were recorded, and stiffness of each construct calculated. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: An ANOVA was performed and resulted in p-values all p<0.005, indicating the test groups were significantly different. Therefore, pairwise t-tests with Bonferroni corrections (p<0.017) were used to determine pairs that were significantly different. Assembly A (3.5mm rods only) was found to be significantly less stiff than Assembly B (dilating rods) and Assembly C (3.5mm-connector-5.5mm rods) in each mode of bending: compression bending, tension bending, and torsion. Assembly A had a significantly greater range of motion in compression bending and torsion, but not tension bending, when compared to Assembly B and Assembly C. The only significant difference between Assembly B and Assembly C was found in the stiffness value of compression bending. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: The results of this study indicate that incorporating a 5.5mm rod in a fusion assembly adds significant stiffness to the posterior spinal fusion construct. When stability of a fusion is of heightened concern, as demonstrated by the ASTM F1717 vertebectomy (worst case scenario) model, including 5.5mm rods increases the likelihood of fusion success.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The goal of this project is to determine the role of ETV6 in early B-cell development and define how germline ETV6 mutations result in predisposition to leukemia. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Gene expression commons were queried for expression levels of Etv6 and Pax5 at different stages of hematopoiesis. Mouse bone marrow was isolated and fractioned into cells committed to the B cell lineage via B220+ and CD43+ staining by flow cytometry and then separated into the following fractions: Fraction A (CD24low, CD19−), Fraction B (CD19+, CD24+, BP1−), and Fraction C (CD19+ CD24+ BP1+). Wild-type or germline mutant P214L ETV6 were cloned in an MiG vector and expressed in Ba/F3 cells. ChIP-PCR was performed by cross-linking proteins to DNA with 1% formaldehyde for 10 minute at room temperature, followed by cell lysis with RIPA buffer. Lysates were sonicated to shear DNA to a length of 200–1000 base pairs, then Protein A agarose beads were used to clean and immunoprecipitate chromatin. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We observed that Etv6 is highly expressed in hematopoietic stem and lymphoid progenitor cells through the pre-pro-B stage (FrA), but its expression is significantly reduced in fraction B and thereafter (p<0.0001). Etv6 expression decreases as B cells develop and is negatively correlated with Pax5 expression (r2=0.9993; p=0.0167). We next confirmed the expression patterns of ETV6 and PAX5 during B cell development in human samples. We found that ETV6 expression was higher in the early B cell fraction (CD10+, CD34+, CD19−, and CD20−) compared to the pre-B cell fraction (CD10+, CD34−, CD19+, CD20−). Conversely, we observed that PAX5 expression was higher in the preB cell fraction compared with the early B cell fraction. In Ba/F3 cells expressing ETV6 constructs, ETV6, but not ETV6 P214L overexpression significantly decreased Pax5 expression (p≤0.05). ETV6 is associated with the proximal GGAA site 72 base pairs upstream of the Pax5 TSS, but not GGAA sites further from the TSS. In addition, the transcriptional repressors SIN3A and HDAC3 were detected on the same regions of the Pax5 locus. We detected association of ETV6, SIN3A, and HDAC3 with the proximal GGAA site upon expression of WT ETV6, but not ETV6 P214L. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our results provide a mechanism of interaction for ETV6 and PAX5, 2 genes often disrupted in B-cell leukemia. These findings are significant because PAX5 misregulation results in a B cell development halt, lineage infidelity, and leukemogenesis. In continuing our studies, we have generated a transgenic mouse endogenously expressing the ETV6 P214L mutation by CRISPR/Cas9 editing, and these mice appear to have a thrombocytopenic phenotype similar to that observed in patients carrying the ETV6 P214L mutation. These animals will be the focus of our continued investigation of the mechanism by which ETV6 germline mutation results in a predisposition to leukemia. Our ultimate goal is a comprehensive understanding of how this process may be targeted more efficiently in patients with both heritable and sporadic forms of leukemia involving ETV6.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objective for this study was to evaluate the associations between weight stigma and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and binge eating following bariatric surgery. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Bariatric surgery is the leading evidence-based treatment for severe obesity; however, mental health challenges can compromise long-term improvements in quality of life. Weight stigma is a major contributor to mental health challenges for individuals with obesity generally; however, the role of weight stigma post-operatively after significant weight loss is poorly understood.148 patients underwent pre-bariatric surgery psychological evaluation and completed a follow-up study approximately 2 years after. Measures included the Stigmatizing Situations Inventory-Brief, Patient Health Questionnaire, Generalized Anxiety Questionnaire, and Binge Eating Scale. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In regression models controlling for demographic covariates (sex, age, education, race), body mass index, and baseline measure of each outcome (e.g., depressive symptoms pre-surgery in models predicting depression post-surgery), weight stigma was independently associated with depression (p=.023), anxiety (p <.001), and binge eating (p=.008) symptoms post-surgery.Above and beyond weight, demographics, and pre-surgery measurements of mental health, weight stigma continues to influence mental health outcomes in the years following bariatric surgery. Despite weight loss after bariatric surgery, this data suggests the cumulative experiences of stigma and discrimination continue to negatively impact mental health. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Interventions for bariatric surgery patients must consider the effects of weight stigma, at both the societal and individual levels. Interventions countering stigma could optimize long-term quality of life and associated outcomes.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: As the sole Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) site in Michigan, the Michigan Institute for Clinical & Health Research (MICHR) at the University of Michigan (UM) is working to develop community networks that drive clinical and translational research on community-identified health priorities. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: These CBRNs will be modeled from successful work that has been accomplished in Jackson, MI where stakeholders from the local healthcare community, County Health Department, Health Improvement Organization, and grassroots community members created a Community of Solution to address the unmet behavioral health and social needs of community members. The CBRN’s will focus on identifying community health priorities by receiving input from community members in underserved communities using deliberative software called Choosing All Together (CHAT). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In the fall of 2017, 3 focus groups were held in Northern Michigan to identify community health priorities. The top 5 community health priorities include; (1) mental wellness, (2) long-term illness, (3) alcohol and drugs, (4) air, water, and land, and (5) affording care. Additional focus groups are scheduled for the winter in 2 additional geographic areas. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Future work for the creation of CBRNs includes building leadership groups comprised of clinicians, community leaders, public health leaders, health system leaders and researchers to inform the leadership groups of community-identified health priorities. In addition, the team is working to identify a platform to connect academic investigators across UM and community partners on shared research priorities in real time. In order to measure and map relationships within the networks, we are planning to utilize Social Network Analysis as an evaluation tool.

North Carolina Central University (NCCU) and Duke Cancer Institute implemented an NCI-funded Translational Cancer Disparities Research Partnership to enhance translational cancer research, increase the pool of underrepresented racial and ethnic group (UREG) researchers in the translational and clinical research workforce, and equip UREG trainees with skills to increase diversity in clinical trials. The Cancer Research Education Program (C-REP) provided training for UREG graduate students and postdoctoral fellows at Duke and NCCU. An innovative component of C-REP is the Translational Immersion Experience (TIE), which enabled Scholars to gain knowledge across eight domains of clinical and translational research (clinical trials operations, data monitoring, regulatory affairs, UREG accrual, biobanking, community engagement, community outreach, and high-throughput drug screening). Program-specific evaluative metrics were created for three broad domains (clinical operations, basic science/lab research, and population-based science) and eight TIE domains. Two cohorts (n = 13) completed pre- and post-surveys to determine program impact and identify recommendations for program improvement. Scholars reported statistically significant gains in knowledge across three broad domains of biomedical research and seven distinct areas within TIE. Training in translational research incorporating immersions in clinical trials operation, biobanking, drug development, and community engagement adds value to career development of UREG researchers.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The purposes of this study are to examine the relationships among sleep characteristics (duration, efficiency), stress biomarkers, and child behavior problems among toddlers living in socioeconomically disadvantaged homes and how these characteristics change over time from age of 12 months to 24 months. Aim 1: examine changes in subjective and objective sleep characteristics from 12 to 24 months of age. Aim 2: examine changes in stress biomarkers from 12 to 24 months of age. Aim 3: examine the cross sectional and longitudinal relationships between sleep characteristics and stress response. Aim 4: examine the cross sectional and longitudinal relationships between sleep characteristics and toddlers’ child behavior problems. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In this cross-sectional study we are recruiting parents with healthy toddlers from early head start programs and a community clinic to prospectively examine the relationships among sleep characteristics, stress biomarkers, and children’s health. Data on sleep characteristics will include subjective and objective measures of sleep duration and efficiency and parental interactive bedtime behaviors to assist their toddlers’ sleep initiation. Multisystemic biomarkers of stress including cortisol, CRP, IL-6, and BMI, will be measured individually. The associations between sleep characteristics and the biomarkers, considered as a latent variable of the stress response, will be explored. Health measures will include secretory IgA and parent-reported behavioral problems. Generalized linear models will be used in the data analysis. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: To date we have obtained objective (9 days/nights of actigraphy) measures of 33 toddlers’ sleep and subjective measures of parenting interactive behaviors. Using the Parental Interactive Bedtime Behavior (PIBB) Survey and subscales [active physical comforting, encourage autonomy, settle by movement, passive physical comforting (PPC), social comforting], we are currently reporting on the associations between PIBB and toddler’s sleep characteristics. The sample included 33 toddlers (mean age=1.33 years, SD=0.54). The toddlers’ sleep duration averaged 8.22 hours (SD=0.86). There were statistically significant moderate associations between sleep duration and parents’ PPC (r=−0.41, p=0.02). Intra-individual variability in the amount of wake after sleep onset was also significantly associated with total PIBB and PPC (r=0.37, p=0.05; r=0.52, p=0.002, respectively). Intra-individual variability in the amount of sleep fragmentation within toddlers was significantly associated with total PIBB (r=0.36, p=0.05). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Although active physical comforting (eg, rocking to sleep, patting or rubbing child’s back) is most commonly associated with sleep patterns in infancy and toddlerhood among samples of higher socio-economic status, findings from this study suggest a stronger association between PPC (eg, presence of the parent in the room to fall asleep) and less sleep duration and more individual variability in night wakings. The biomarker data are currently being analyzed and results will be presented within the year. Taken together, these preliminary results and pending results will inform future intervention development that may address the role of parenting behavior in promoting health sleep early in life.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Limited access to medication and poor medication adherence exacerbate chronic diseases following disasters. Experts recommend individuals in disaster-prone areas be prepared to manage their chronic diseases in the event of resource disruption. This study’s goal is to identify factors underlying personal medical preparedness. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A cross-sectional survey of 120 insured adults age ≥50 in Southeast Louisiana with hypertension and ≥1 daily medication during the 2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season is underway. The survey includes the Household Emergency Preparedness Index Access and Functional Needs Section (HEPI AFN), a validated measure of medical preparedness that accounts for special circumstances including refrigerated medication and electricity-dependent medical equipment. The mean score of the 9-item tool ranges from 0 to 1, with higher scores indicating more preparedness. The survey also includes 3 open-ended questions where participants can explain difficulties with medication adherence during hurricanes in their own voice. Data collection is ongoing. This interim analysis provides descriptive statistics. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: An interim analysis of the first 50 respondents included 46% women, 52% Black, mean age 61.2 (SD=7.3) years, and mean 52.5 (SD=16.2) years living in a hurricane-impacted area. Participants had a median of 1 comorbid condition; 72% reported taking >5 daily medications. Most respondents (94%) stated their household was at least “somewhat prepared” to handle a disaster and reported medical preparedness on an average of 82% of HEPI-AFN items (mean score = 0.82, SD=0.18); 90% reported that they had never had a healthcare worker talk to them about personal medical preparedness. On open response questions, participants cited insurance restrictions as the primary barrier to having extra medication on hand. In the final sample, regression models will be used to examine factors associated with increased preparedness. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: While most participants in this insured, disaster-experienced preliminary sample are medically prepared, few have discussed preparedness with a healthcare provider. Identifying socio-demographic factors associated with preparedness will help to strengthen mitigation strategies addressing widening of health disparities during disasters.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Recent studies suggest nulliparous patients benefit from low dose aspirin (LDA), yet there are limited studies examining MFM providers adherence to USPSTF guidelines and predictors of adherence. We identified demographic, obstetric, and clinical characteristics associated with guideline concordant counseling on LDA in nulliparous women. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Retrospective cohort study of pregnant nulliparous patients who received MFM prenatal care at a single tertiary center (1/1/2019-6/30/2020). Multiple gestations, > 2 spontaneous or therapeutic abortions, and contraindications to LDA were excluded. Maternal demographic and clinical characteristics were abstracted from the electronic medical record. The primary outcome was documented LDA counseling based on USPSTF guidelines. Data were analyzed using bivariate analysis and logistic regression using R 4.1.0 (R Core Team, 2021). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Among 394 records in the analysis cohort, 316 met USPSTF guidelines for LDA. 164 (51.9%) meeting guidelines had documented LDA counseling. 67.4% of individuals with ?1 major USPSTF risk factors were counseled and 50.7% with ?2 moderate risk factors were counseled (Table 1). Age at the estimated due date (EDD), Black or Other race, chronic hypertension, and obesity are significantly associated with higher odds of aspirin counseling (Table 2). Patients with chronic hypertension had 4.15 higher odds of receiving low dose aspirin counseling compared to non-hypertensive patient (Table 2). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our results suggest that only 51.9% of patients eligible for LDA received counseling despite MFM care. Increasing MFM provider awareness about the USPSTF guidelines and creating tools that facilitate guideline concordant counseling may increase the number of eligible patients who are counseled about LDA.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Rural recovery community organizations (RCOs) are key to fostering people’s resilience in the face of the nation’s substance use crisis. However, their development is often a black box. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A community-engaged multiple-methods approach was conducted to elucidate stakeholders' perspectives about the creation of two RCOs through a consortium intended to build peer recovery support services in a rural Southern Indiana designated health professional shortage area. Document review (e.g., meeting minutes, event photography, and administrative reports) were extracted to map activities, products, and milestones of the development of the RCOs. Consortium members, RCO leadership and staff, and community members identified by consortium or RCO leadership/staff participated in one-on-one interviews or community roundtable sessions were held to reflect on the evolving development of the RCOs. Procedures were approved by the Institutional Review Board of Indiana University. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: This designated health professional shortage area is unique as it is the nonmetropolitan county with two accredited RCOs. Each RCOs has its own distinct brand. One RCO primarily provide support services to prepare justice-involved individuals who are re-entering the community from jail or probation. The second RCO operates a recovery café – a drug free space that offers accountability groups (recovery circles), volunteer opportunities, and multiple pathway (e.g., 12-steps, referral to medication assisted treatment) meetings. Services are facilitated through peer recovery coaches. Services are provided by certified peer recovery coaches (individuals who has lived experience with addiction and recovery) who offers informational, socio-emotional, and instrumental/basic needs support. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This collaborative rural-based model features recovery community organizations as emerging lead agencies in providing informational, socio-emotional, and basic needs for individuals living in long-term recovery as well as individuals using substances and is not yet in recovery services or acknowledging an addiction is present.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Determine whether GABA-A receptor binding is abnormal and linked to dystonia symptoms in cervical dystonia (CD). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: There is increasing evidence that a key pathophysiological mechanism in adult-onset focal dystonia is a reduction in inhibitory control over the sensorimotor network. Results from a recent 11C-flumazenil PET imaging study suggest that abnormal inhibitory signaling in genetic and sporadic forms of dystonia may be due to reduced GABA-A binding. It remains unknown whether CD, the most common form of adult-onset focal dystonia, is associated with abnormal GABA-A binding. The goal of this research is to determine if GABA-A receptor binding is abnormal and linked to dystonia symptoms in CD. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We investigated whole brain GABA-A binding in 15 CD patients (11F; 64±8 y) and 15 healthy controls (10F; 64±9 y) using 60-minute dynamic 11C-flumazenil PET scans. GABA-A receptor binding potential (BP) was estimated using a simplified reference tissue model. A 2-sample t-test was used to identify voxel-wise GABA-A BP differences between groups, and a regression analysis used to test for correlations between GABA-A BP and disease severity as measured with the Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS). A conventional region of interest analysis was also conducted to quantify BP changes within the sensorimotor network using the automated anatomical labeling atlas. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: CD patients have reduced GABA-A receptor binding compared with healthy controls, with the greatest reduction seen within the sensorimotor region of the thalamus. Furthermore, reductions in GABA-A binding in brain regions associated with coupling sensory and motor information predict motor severity. These findings support that reduced GABAergic signaling within sensorimotor integration regions is a key mechanism underlying dystonic symptoms in CD and could help inform the development of better, more targeted treatment options.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Background: Failure to involve hard-to-reach populations in clinical research denies the potential benefits of research to the excluded groups, perpetuating health disparities. Employing community health workers (CHWs) may be an effective strategy to increase outreach and engagement of marginalized groups. CHWs are members of the target communities with a personal commitment to help their neighbors, and who serve as informants and communicators among their peers. CHWs may be particularly effective in addressing individual and cultural barriers to research participation. Because of their unique background and community-based roles, tailored training programs for CHWs are needed. The Recruitment, Retention, and Community Engagement Program at the UIC Center for Clinical and Translational Sciences seeks to train CHWs to be involved in the recruitment and enrollment of participants in clinical trials. We developed an 8-hour training that covers basic research methods (e.g., randomized clinical trials, longitudinal studies); research activities (e.g., surveys, interviews); and research ethics. The training focuses on the development of communication skills necessary for ethical recruitment and informed consent, providing strategies for addressing mistrust, fear and misunderstanding around the research process. Aim 1: To evaluate the feasibility of the CHW training by assessing. Aim 1.1: Recruitment of participants; Aim 1.2: Completion of training session (8 hr). Aim 2: To evaluate acceptability of training by assessing. Aim 2.1: Satisfaction with training; Aim 2.2: Cultural competence of training content; Aim 2.3: Participant self-efficacy in reproducing information. Aim 3: To collect performance measures by assessing. Aim 3.1: Knowledge gain and retention; Aim 3.2: Self-efficacy in identifying and addressing negative beliefs about research; Aim 3.3: Participants’ readiness to refer and/or recommend participation in clinical trials. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Methods: This is a pilot study with a single-group repeated-measures design with assessments at baseline, 1 week post-test, and 3- and 6-month follow-ups. We aim to recruit 25 CHWs working with organizations serving the needs of ethnic minorities in Chicago. We will evaluate feasibility (recruitment, completion of training and assessments) and acceptability of the training (satisfaction with training, cultural appropriateness of content and delivery, participant self-efficacy in reproducing information). Performance measures assessed through self-administered surveys at baseline, 1 week post-training, 3 months, and 6 months will include knowledge, attitudes toward research, and self-efficacy in identifying and addressing barriers to participation. Readiness to recruit and obtain informed consent will be assessed during an observed simulation activity with a standardized participant. Data analysis: Demographic data will be collected, and descriptive and inferential analyses will be conducted. Pretest and post-test questionnaire data will be compared using t-tests. In the informed consent simulation, individuals will be scored on whether they adequately addressed required elements of the informed consent process. Data gathered from the informed consent simulation will also be used for program evaluation and formative purposes; feedback on strengths and areas for improvement will be provided to participants. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Expected results: It will be feasible to implement the training of CHWs, reaching the expected goal of 25 participants, with at least 70% of them completing the 8-hour training. We expect to collect data demonstrating acceptability of the training with a score of “good” or “excellent” by 70% of participants. At least 70% will rate the training as “culturally acceptable” or better, and will show improved self-efficacy in the delivery of information from pretest to post-test by at least 30%. Performance measures will demonstrate improvements in research knowledge by 30% from pretest to post-test; increased self-efficacy in identifying and addressing negative beliefs about research process, by at least 30%. A minimum of 70% of participants will demonstrate readiness to refer and/or recommend participation in clinical trials by scoring at or above 70% in evaluation of performance with standardized participants. Evaluation of knowledge retention at 3 and 6 months post-training will not take place before the Translational Science Conference in March 2018. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Discussion/Impact. The outcomes of this evaluation may advance our knowledge of community obstacles to participation in research, and shed light on successful strategies to address them. Information obtained will be used to address limitations of the training. Even though the sample is small we expect to identify trends in quantitative measures that will support an application for funding for a larger randomized study. Once we have developed an effective training model, we expect to disseminate it to other CTSAs for broad implementation.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Future exercise interventions for people with mobility disability should be tailored to the level of the individual and responsive to intervention adherence. A promising area of research is the use of adaptive interventions as a mechanism for tailoring and 'titrating’ the intervention based on data obtained during early intervention stages. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The purpose of the study was to understand adherence to a home-based exercise trial delivered to people with a mobility disability. The objective was to develop a multi-dimensional model for engaging and retaining participants not adhering to an exercise trial by using a grounded theory approach involving both qualitative and quantitative data. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: An exercise trial utilized telehealth technology to deliver a home-based exercise intervention for adults with a mobility disability. In order to understand factors of adherence to the exercise trial, a mixed methods study design was used involving baseline data and semi-structured interviews. Maximum variation sampling was used to select participants based on level of adherence, gender, race, and functional level. Categorization based on adherence to exercise videos during the first 12 weeks of the intervention included 3 groups: 1) high adherence (≥80% weekly median exercise video minutes viewed), 2) sub-optimal adherence (< 80% but ≥20%), and 3) low adherence (< 20%). Interviews were conducted with 10 participants in each group (n = 30) and data were analyzed using a grounded theory approach. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A sample of 30 participants from a large pragmatic, home-based exercise trail have completed interviews. All interviews were transcribed and uploaded to NVivo software for coding. Emerging codes include lack of time to exercise, inappropriate exercise intensity, and lack of support for exercise. Using grounded theory approach, results include: 1) identifying risk factors for low adherence to a home-based exercise program delivered to people with mobility disability, 2) discovering themes for not responding to program activities in a home-based exercise program for adults with physical disabilities, and 3) determining the relationships between variables that emerge from thematic and statistical analyses. A model for adherence to home exercises among people with mobility disability will be presented. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: People with a mobility disability are more susceptible to adopting sedentary lifestyles, which result in poor psychosocial and physical health outcomes. There is a clear and pressing need for designing future home-based exercise interventions with a greater level of customization for participants who have low to non-adherence.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Access to intracranial recording in our epileptic sample provides a unique opportunity to characterize neurological activation patterns associated with attention and implicit learning; this foundational physiological understanding will serve to better guide cognitive rehabilitation techniques in TBI patients that aim to improve functioning across these cognitive domains. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: 1) Investigate the network level interactions of attention and learning during an attention network task (ANT) and an implicit learning contextual cueing (CC) task. 2) Assess the effect that attention rehabilitation strategies have on behavioral and neural responses pre/post-attentional intervention. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This study involves refractory epilepsy patients (rEP) with implanted intracranial electrodes and moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (m/sTBI) survivors. In rEP, we are identifying network level modulations of cortical regions via the ANT, which probes components of attention (alerting, orienting, and executive control) and a CC task that probes implicit learning. We hypothesize that modulation of attention and learning can be seen at the neuronal level. In TBI we will assess improvement following two behavioral attention rehabilitation paradigms; and use our results from epileptic patients to guide measurement of treatment-related neuroplastic change via scalp electroencephalography. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Preliminary behavioral results from the rEP cohort are in line with previous studies and the intracranial data is suggestive of region- and task-specific modulations in memory and attention related systems. Following completion of recruitment, we expect to more concretely identify regions and networks that exhibit modulatory effects associated with attention and implicit learning. Additionally, we anticipate that deficits in attention will be mitigated following training and hypothesize that implicit learning rate will improve in TBI patients as a result of both attentional rehabilitation paradigms. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: Characterizing intracranial activity in epilepsy patients will give electrophysiology data unattainable in TBI patients. This intracranial perspective will enable us to propose mechanisms of action that may result from our interventions and enable critique of current rehabilitation treatments.
