Clinical Research Oriented Workshop (CROW) Meeting: November 5, 2020

 Present:   Levi Bonnell, Justine Dee, Nancy Gell, Juvena Hitt, Jen Oshita, Adam Sprouse-Blum, Connie van Eeghen, (7)

 1.                   Warm Up: These are interesting times…

2.                   Levi: three co-authors, he will take notes for them and is first author

a.       Title

                                                   i.      Is it cardiovascular capacity, or cardiorespiratory capacity, or functional capacity (O2 uptake)

1.       Should it be in milligrams/kilograms, rather than METs?  What does the audience understand?

2.       Use SDH or list food/housing/finance

b.       Abstract

                                                   i.      Specify population more; reconsider how the diagnoses are grouped (medical vs behavioral), especially IBS

                                                 ii.      Design: cross sectional

                                               iii.      Outcomes: be consistent; connect with DASI

                                               iv.      Use of “insecurities” to describe the environment; consistent use of SDH (plural noun?)

c.       Introduction

                                                   i.      More explanation of the relationship of predictors, outcomes, and co-variates

d.       General: floating negative signs, how to combine graphs well, avoid passive voice, other references, and a great discussion

3.                   Next week:  Levi will figure it out.
