GRANT SUPPORT:
Mentor. Effects of Exercise on Asthmatic Responses in Obese Pediatric Asthmatics. (PI: Teri
Magruder). 08/1/11—07/31/12. University of Alabama at Birmingham, Minority Health Disparities
Center. Total Costs = $30,000. Childhood obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States.
This pilot study is examining the effect of aerobic exercise on asthmatic responses in obese African
American children.
Mentor. Relating Diesel Exhaust Exposure to Respiratory and Immune Outcomes in Early
Life.
(PI: Paloma Beamer). 07/1/11 – 6/30/16. National Institutes of Health, National Heart, Lung, and
Blood Institute. Year 01= $128,226/Total Costs=$670,326. K25 HL103970-01A1
Co-Principal Investigator. Maternal and Child Health Public Health Training Program. 06/01/2010 –
05/31/2015. Year 01=$356,499/Total Costs=$1,736,297. Maternal and Child Health Bureau. The over
arching goal for the training program is to increase the number and quality of culturally competent MCH
professionals who will provide the next generation of MCH public health leadership for the development
of evidence-based policies, programs, and program evaluation to address the health and wellness women,
children and families throughout the Southwest and Rocky Mountain region, and nationally. This
ambitious goal will be attained by building on five years of experience and achievements as a HRSA
funded MCH Training Program, and by enlarging the scope and impact of existing program through a new
set of goals and objectives.
Principal Investigator. American Lung Association Asthma Clinical Research Center 01/01/10-
06/31/15. American Lung Association. The ALA-ACRC consists of 18 clinical centers and a data
coordinating center who have the mission of improving asthma care through clinical research in diverse
populations. The ALA-ACRC conducts various clinical studies related to asthma. Individual trials are
listed below:
Long-acting Beta Agonist Step Down Study (LASST). GlaxoSmithKline. The purpose of this study is to compare three approaches to care of patients with asthma well-controlled for three months on combination ICS/LABA: reduction of ICS dose and maintenance of LABA, initial discontinuation of LABA with continuation of ICS, and continuation of stable dose ICS/LABA. Effect of Positive Airway Pressure on Reducing Airway Reactivity in Patients with Asthma (CPAP). The objective of this study is to assess the effect of nocturnal CPAP on airways reactivity; to determine the durability of the effect over 12 weeks; to assess the tolerability and adherence to this treatment; and to explore if there are clinically meaningful benefits. Study of Asthma and Nasal Steroids (STAN). National Institutes of Health. The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment of chronic rhinitis and/or sinusitis improves control of asthma in adults and children. Study of Soy Isoflavones in Asthma (SOYA). National Institutes of Health. The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that dietary supplementation with soy isoflavones is an effective treatment in patients with asthma. Principal Investigator. (Investigator 3/01/09 – Present. Subcontract to the University of Arizona) The
impact of parent health literacy on pediatric asthma outcomes.
09/01/07 – 8/31/10. Year 01 =
$287,581/Total Costs = $865,460. Maternal and Child Health Bureau. The goal of this study is to
examine modifiable mechanisms for this health disparity by refining the previously examined role of
parent health literacy in asthma outcomes. We will also extend this knowledge by exploring associations
with asthma control, asthma symptoms, and understanding of treatment recommendations, as well as
sociocultural variables that may affect these relationships.

Principal Investigator.
(Investigator 3/01/09 – Present. Subcontract to the University of Arizona) Effect
of a school based hand sanitizer program on asthma.
