OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To establish a state-wide research registry of diverse participants. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We garnered broad institutional and community support by involving TRI’s Community Engagement team, its Community Advisory Board (CAB), and 3 UAMS patient CABs in selecting Web site content, images, and colors. Using this feedback, the TRI Recruitment Unit (RU), in conjunction with UAMS Communications and the Center for Health Literacy, developed the materials and crafted comprehensive communication and recruitment strategies. The UAMS Center for Pacific Islander Health, Hispanic faculty, and CAB members translated materials. UAMS IT programmed the user-friendly site to allow registration from smartphones and i-Pads and linked to UAMS patient electronic health messages. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The RU committee implemented successful innovative strategies, including recruiting at the Arkansas State Fair and ballgames, attended by people of all races, ages, and socio-economic levels. Using i-Pads at the sites, recruitment took <5 minutes/registrant. Within 8 months, >2400 participants from across Arkansas had joined the registry: 14% African-Americans, 8% Pacific Islanders, 5% Hispanic, and 3% Native American. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Involving CAB multidisciplinary input to design and implement recruitment materials was highly successful. Despite challenges of recruiting under-represented groups, the registry includes 30% minorities. By tracking registrants’ demographics with Lime Survey software, the RU will prioritize future recruitment events to maximize diversity of registrants.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Thionamides are anti-thyroid drugs (ATD) that are commonly used to treat autonomous thyrotoxicosis. Although efficacious, these medications carry a risk of neutropenia or agranulocytosis in a small but finite proportion of the patients who receive them. Some risk factors for thionamide-induced neutropenia have been identified, including body mass index (BMI) and dose, but the role of race and ethnicity in the pathogenesis of this potentially life-threatening side effect is not known. We hypothesize that there will be no effect of race or ethnicity on the change in absolute neutrophil count (ANC) following initiation of thionamide therapy among adult patients with thyrotoxicosis. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Data from the electronic medical record at UNM HSC were obtained using a standard database query for the years 2000–2016. Inclusion criteria were the prescription of an ATD, an ANC recorded within 30 days of initiating ATD therapy (pre-ATD), and an ANC recorded between 75 and 365 days after starting an ANC (post-ATD). Patients taking other agents known to cause neutropenia and agranulocytosis, such as clozapine, allopurinol, or chemotherapy, were excluded. Patients were assigned to racial and ethnic groups as follows: Hispanic, non-Hispanic Caucasian (NHC), native American, Black, and Asian. The post-ATD ANC was defined as the nadir ANC observed after the ATD was started. “Delta ANC” was defined as [(post-ATD ANC)−(pre-ATD ANC)]. ANOVA analysis with Bonferroni-adjusted post-hoc testing was performed to examine differences in the mean changes of ANC across ethnic groups. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In total, 123 adult patients met inclusion and exclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. No significant difference was found between any of the racial groups with regard to age, sex, BMI, pre-ATD ANC, or the pre-ATD to post-ATD ANC interval. The native American group showed a significantly greater post-ATD ANC (not shown) and Delta-ANC as compared with the other groups. Delta ANC Hispanic=−1.4±3.3, Caucasian=−0.6±3.3, Black=−0.9±4.1, Asian=−3.8±4.8, native American=3.6±5.1 (all units per mm3; p<0.001). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: In this cohort of New Mexicans with thyrotoxicosis, native American race was protective against thionamide-induced neutropenia.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To build a multisite deidentified database of female adolescents, aged 12–21 years (January 2011–December 2012), and their subsequent offspring through 24 months of age from electronic health records (EHRs) provided by participating Community Health. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We created a community-academic partnership that included New York City Community Health Centers (n=4) and Hospitals (n=4), The Rockefeller University, The Sackler Institute for Nutrition Science and Clinical Directors Network (CDN). We used the Community-Engaged Research Navigation model to establish a multisite deidentified database extracted from EHRs of female adolescents aged 12–21 years (January 2011–December 2012) and their offspring through 24 months of age. These patients received their primary care between 2011 and 2015. Clinical data were used to explore possible associations among specific measures. We focused on the preconception, prenatal, postnatal periods, including pediatric visits up to 24 months of age. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The preliminary analysis included all female adolescents (n=49,292) and a subset of pregnant adolescents with offspring data available (n=2917). Patients were mostly from the Bronx; 43% of all adolescent females were overweight (22%) or obese (21%) and showed higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure, blood glucose levels, hemoglobin A1c, total cholesterol, and triglycerides levels compared with normal-weight adolescent females (p<0.05). There was a statistically significant association between the BMI status of mothers and infants’ birth weight, with underweight/normal-weight mothers having more low birth weight (LBW) babies and overweight/obese mothers having more large babies. The odds of having a LBW baby was 0.61 (95% CI: 0.41, 0.89) lower in obese compared with normal-weight adolescent mothers. The risk of having a preterm birth before 37 weeks was found to be neutral in obese compared to normal-weight adolescent mothers (OR=0.81, 95% CI: 0.53, 1.25). Preliminary associations are similar to those reported in the published literature. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This EHR database uses available measures from routine clinical care as a “rapid assay” to explore potential associations, and may be more useful to detect the presence and direction of associations than the magnitude of effects. This partnership has engaged community clinicians, laboratory and clinical investigators, and funders in study design and analysis, as demonstrated by the collaborative development and testing of hypotheses relevant to service delivery.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Focus groups are being conducted to describe and identify barriers and/or facilitators to Hispanic males’ health literacy, culture, and language related to cervical cancer prevention practices METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A purposive convenience sample was recruited to participate in focus group sessions with English or Spanish speaking Hispanic males 21 years of age and older. Groups were segmented by age (21–29, 30–39, 40–49, and 50–65), and language (English or Spanish). Focus group discussions (n=8) were led by a bilingual/bicultural female researcher using a discussion guide that followed Zarcadoolas et al. (2005) health literacy model 6 as related to their partners’ cervical cancer screening and prevention practices. All sessions were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Participants completed standardized questioners regarding demographic data and their health literacy. Qualitative content analysis was used for analyzing focus group interviews. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Preliminary qualitative analysis shows the struggle Hispanic males’ face accepting cervical cancer screening for their female partners. One participant reported that it was “a clash of cultures.” A “clash of cultures” was described as a constant struggle and acceptance between science, personal knowledge, and Hispanic cultural taboos. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Hispanic male’s health literacy, communication, language preferences, and cervical cancer risks, will further enhance the knowledge needed to design intervention measures for cancer prevention among Hispanics. Understanding the factors that contribute to the unequal burden of cervical cancer incidence and mortality among Hispanic women in South Texas is critical to prevent cervical cancer among this population.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Community engagement is a commonly used term, but is complex in both meaning and application. In order to help academic institutions and administrators develop infrastructure to promote and support community engagement and to help investigators work productively with communities, this analysis discusses the major components of community engagement in research on both the institutional and individual project levels as well as the interplay between them. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A literature synthesis conducted by a community engagement in research committee at 1 CTSA institution that examined the myriad factors related to effective community engagement in research identified across multiple disciplines was used to distill the major factors identified, assesses the interplay of the identified factors, and produce a conceptual model to help administrators and investigators apply best practices in engaging communities in clinical and translational research. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: This work takes a concept—community engagement in research—that is often stated and discussed, but is highly complex and challenging to implement—and identifies and discusses the multiple, interrelated factors germane to it. The model illustrates that while community engagement in research is implemented in the context of individual projects, a deep and continual interplay between individual projects and the goals, capacity, and policies of research institutions is needed for rigorous, ethical, and effective community engagement. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Results are presented through a conceptual framework which displays the major components needed for rigorous, ethical, and effective community engagement in clinical and translational research. In addition, the conceptual framework presented will provide assistance to those developing approaches to measure and evaluate institutional readiness for community engagement in research as well as the effectiveness of individual community engagement efforts.

BACKGROUND: Of the ~50 million cases of epilepsy worldwide, an estimated 80% originate from cortical areas implicated in language. Although the precise language loci can vary significantly across individuals, electrical stimulation mapping for eloquent areas has become standard of care in resective surgery for frontotemporal epilepsies. Although considerable work has been done to establish the minimum necessary resection distance from these sites to preserve language, no previous work has shown how these representations are affected by proximal resections. METHODS: Between 1967 and 2005, 22 patients [seizure onset (y): 11.5 (0.2–33); age at initial resection (y): 27.7 (10–39); time between operations (y): 8.4 (1–20.3); sex: 14 females; hemisphere: 21 left] underwent repeated perisylvian resective epilepsy surgeries of the language-dominant hemisphere. Each set of operations comprised intraoperative language mapping and cortical photographs. Using this data, a Bayesian hierarchical model was used to estimate the variability of language localization pre-resection Versus post-resection. RESULTS: The statistical model shows the posterior median difference in cortical location of language sites preresection Versus postresection is 0.6 cm, with a posterior 95% CI of 0.4 cm, 0.9 cm. CONCLUSION: This work suggests permanence in cortical language centers following resection of infringing cortex, while providing a reasonable statistical method to impute unobserved sites during the mappings, and confirming the validity of using proximity sites defined by shortest distance in the current literature.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Analyze data from the first 30 children enrolled in a prospective cohort study evaluating the ability of specific serum biomarkers to distinguish children with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) from children with orthopedic injuries (OI). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Children ages 0<5 years were eligible if they presented to the emergency department within 6 hours of injury. Children were identified as having a TBI if they sustained a head injury and were found to have an acute injury on head CT. Children were identified as having an OI if they sustained a musculoskeletal injury significant enough to necessitate radiography per clinical care. Individual (eg, age) and clinical (eg, radiography findings) factors, as well as serum biomarkers [eg, ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)] were collected at time of enrollment. TBI and OI groups were compared using Wilcoxon rank-sum and Kruskal-Wallis tests. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: This cohort consisted of 13 children with TBI (7 with isolated skull fractures, 1 with intracranial injury, and 5 with both a skull fracture and an intracranial injury) and 17 with OI (12 with fractures). Most patients were male (67%) and White (67%), and this did not differ between groups (p>0.1). Children with TBI were significantly younger than children with OI, with an average (±standard deviation) age of 15±13 and 39±13 months, respectively (p<0.01). There was not a significant difference in time from injury to biomarker collection between TBI and OI patients at 4.1±1.8 and 5.8±2.6 hours, respectively (p=0.07). Median (IQR) levels of GFAP were significantly higher (p<0.01) in children with TBI, relative to children with OI: 220 (67–421) pg/mL Versus 37 (25–74) pg/mL, respectively. Median (IQR) levels of UCH-L1 were also significantly higher (p<0.01) in the TBI group, relative to children with OI: 444 (377–449) pg/mL Versus 248 (140–417) pg/mL, respectively. In a subanalysis comparing median biomarker levels across three study groups (ie, TBI with an isolated skull fracture, TBI with an intracranial injury, and OI), group differences remained significant for both biomarkers with TBI patients having higher levels, relative to OI patients, of both GFAP (p<0.01) and UCH-L1 (p=0.02). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: GFAP and UCH-L1 hold promise to improve the diagnosis of TBI in very young children. Identification of a marker of TBI that can be done in the acute care setting would advance the diagnosis of TBI in very young children, a vulnerable population for whom identification of neurological symptoms can be challenging.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy (ILE) is an invasive surgical procedure with a high incidence of postoperative pneumonia. Antibiotic prophylaxis could reduce respiratory infections but increase Clostridium difficile and antibiotic resistance. Our institution reduced the duration of piperacillin-tazobactam prophylaxis following ILE from 4 to 1 day or less in January 2015. We evaluated short-term outcomes in ILE patients before and after this institutional change. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Retrospective cohort study of all ILE patients from 2012 to 2016. We confirmed antibiotic duration directly from nursing medication administration records. The primary outcomes of this study were rates of C. difficile and postoperative pneumonia. Secondary outcomes include other infection, length of hospital stay, and readmission within 30 days. We used logistic regression to analyze impact of days of antibiotics and χ2 or Fischer exact tests for categorical variables. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Of 104 ILE patients, 40.4% (n=42) were after January 2015, 11.5% developed pneumonia and 5.8% developed C. difficile colitis. ILE patients received more days of antibiotics before the institutional change compared with after (6.1 vs. 2.9 d, p<0.01). For a 1-day increase in antibiotic duration, the odds of acquiring C. difficile increased significantly by 1.2 (p=0.03). Before compared with after the institutional change, rates of C. difficile were 8.1% Versus 2.4% (p>0.2), rates of pneumonia were 11.3% Versus 11.9% (p>0.2), and length of stay was 10.9 Versus 10.5 days (p>0.2), respectively. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Institutional policy can have an impact on patient outcomes. Antibiotic stewardship is associated with reduced rates of inpatient C. difficile. Our study suggests reduced antibiotics are not associated with pneumonia, although larger studies are necessary to confirm this finding. Surgeons should consider the benefit of decreased rates of C. difficile before administering prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis following esophagectomies.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: We evaluated the accuracy of diagnosis and procedure codes to identify acute urinary retention (AUR) due to lack of existing validation studies. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We performed a cross-sectional validation study at a single medical institution in the emergency department (ED) and outpatient Urology Clinic in men ≥45 years. International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) diagnosis codes 788.20, 788.21, 788.29 for urinary retention and Current Procedural Terminology, Fourth Edition (CPT-4) codes 51701, 51702, 51703 for urinary catheterization were used to identify men with potential AUR. Four algorithms using ICD-9-CM and CPT-4 codes were compared against medical record review. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and area under the curve were calculated for both the ED and Urology Clinic. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 333 treated and released men in the ED were identified using facility billing data, and 245 men using physician billing data in the Urology Clinic were identified using the codes for urinary retention or urinary catheterization. Of the 4 algorithms, any ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for urinary retention was the preferred algorithm with a sensitivity and specificity of 0.95 and 0.91 using ED facility billing data and a sensitivity and specificity of 0.95 and 0.58 using Urology physician billing data. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Use of the ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes for urinary retention performed well at identifying AUR in the ED. This study provides justification to use urinary retention diagnosis codes (specifically 788.20 and 788.29) in future studies to identify AUR using administrative data, especially in the ED.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: This study describes the design, operation, and evaluation of a community-based research (CBR) consult service within the setting of a Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) institution. To our knowledge, there are no published evaluations of a CBR consult service at a CTSA hub. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A CBR consult service was created to support faculty, healthcare providers/research coordinators, trainees, community-based organizations, and community members. A framework was developed to assess the stages of client engagement and to foster clear articulation of client needs and challenges. A developmental evaluation system was integrated with the framework to track progress, store documents, continuously improve the consult service, and assess research outcomes. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: This framework provides information on client numbers, types, services used, and successful outreach methods. Tracking progress reveals reasons that prevent clients from completing projects and facilitates learning outcomes relevant to clients and funding agencies. Clients benefit from the expert knowledge, community connections, and project guidance provided by the consult service team, increasing the likelihood of study completion and achieving research outcomes. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our evaluation suggests that clients benefit by (1) gaining the collective knowledge of the experts comprising the team, (2) learning the process of doing CBR, including the required steps to reach completion, and (3) gaining a project management mentality promoting translational research outcomes. This study offers a framework by which CTSA institutions can expand their capacity to conduct and evaluate CBR while addressing challenges that inhibit community engagement.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a hereditary retinal degeneration disease that affects ~1 in 4000 individuals globally, and there are currently no effective treatment options available. In order to identify potential drug treatments, we optimized our existing a behavioral assay around a transgenic zebrafish carrying a truncated human rhodopsin transgene [Tg(rho:Hsa.RH1_Q344X)]. This line was also crossed with the Tg(-3.7rho:EGFP) reporter for rod visualization. The Q344X larvae experiences significant rod photoreceptor death by 7 days postfertilization (dpf) (Nakao et al., 2012). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: To assess the vision of the Q344X zebrafish, the VMR assay was run under a dim-light condition based on recorded rod b-waves in larval fish (Moyano et al., 2013) and the minimum cone activation threshold in mice (Cachafeiro et al., 2010). Specifically, Q344X and control larvae at 7 dpf were placed into a 96-well plate and acclimated to a dim-light source (1.802e-05 μ W/cm2 at 500 nm) for 1 hour. The VMR was tracked and quantified during light offset. The total distance traveled was averaged and analyzed at 1 second poststimulus. Retinas were dissected from Q344X and control larvae and whole-mounted to validate the rod degeneration in the Q344X model. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We found that the Q344X larvae displayed an attenuated VMR (0.121±0.041 cm) to the dim-light offset as compared with the control larvae (0.2751±0.038 cm) (two-sample t-test; p-value=4.619e-14, n=19). Analysis of whole-mounted retinae indicated significant rod degeneration at 7 dpf compared with controls (control: 87 rods/retina, Q344X: 9.3 rods/retina, Welch two-sample t-test, p-value=1.4e4). It is unlikely that the cones of the zebrafish contributed to this VMR since the light intensity of the assay was below the cone detection threshold of mice. As the only apparent difference between the 2 groups of larvae is significant rod degeneration, it can be concluded that the behavioral phenotype was a result of the degeneration. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: These results suggest that the attenuated Q344X VMR is a result of the rod photoreceptor death. This behavioral phenotype can be taken advantage of to develop a drug screening assay. Future steps will screen chemical libraries to identify compounds that ameliorate the rod degeneration. Compounds that prevent degeneration are expected to result in a significant increase in locomotion in response to the dim visual stimulus.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Recent evidence from resting-state fMRI studies have shown that brain network connectivity is altered in patients with neurodegenerative disorders. However, few studies have examined the complete connectivity patterns of these well-reported RSNs using a whole brain approach and how they compare between dementias. Here, we used advanced connectomic approaches to examine the connectivity of RSNs in Alzheimer disease (AD), Frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and age-matched control participants. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In total, 44 participants [27 controls (66.4±7.6 years), 13 AD (68.5.63±13.9 years), 4 FTD (59.575±12.2 years)] from an ongoing study at Indiana University School of Medicine were used. Resting-state fMRI data was processed using an in-house pipeline modeled after Power et al. (2014). Images were parcellated into 278 regions of interest (ROI) based on Shen et al. (2013). Connectivity between each ROI pair was described by Pearson correlation coefficient. Brain regions were grouped into 7 canonical RSNs as described by Yeo et al. (2015). Pearson correlation values were then averaged across pairs of ROIs in each network and averaged across individuals in each group. These values were used to determine relative expression of FC in each RSN (intranetwork) and create RSN profiles for each group. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Our findings support previous literature which shows that limbic networks are disrupted in FTLD participants compared with AD and age-matched controls. In addition, interactions between different RSNs was also examined and a significant difference between controls and AD subjects was found between FP and DMN RSNs. Similarly, previous literature has reported a disruption between executive (frontoparietal) network and default mode network in AD compared with controls. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our approach allows us to create profiles that could help compare intranetwork FC in different neurodegenerative diseases. Future work with expanded samples will help us to draw more substantial conclusions regarding differences, if any, in the connectivity patterns between RSNs in various neurodegenerative diseases.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Obstructive lung disease following particulate matter (PM) exposure is a major health concern. Coexisting metabolic syndrome (MetSyn) often occurs. Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is highly expressed in the lung, is a strong predictor of FEV1, and is a key mediator of MetSyn. To determine if the loss of RAGE protects from the persistence of effects of particulate associated lung injury in a murine model. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Wild type (WT) and RAGE knockout (RKO) mice were exposed to 100 μg of PM (WTC-Aggregate, PM53) or PBS control by oropharyngeal aspiration. Lung function, methacholine challenge, and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) were quantified 28 days after PM exposure using flexiVent (Scireq Montreal, QC). BAL was obtained and cell differentials, cytokines and transcription factors were assayed. Bio-volume to airspace ratio and mean chord length were measured (Image J and Adobe Photoshop). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: WT mice were hyper-reactive to methacholine compared with their PBS controls 28 days after a single exposure to PM. They recovered from increased neutrophilia, loss of FEV, decreased compliance, and increased resistance, which were previously observed 24-hours after exposure. RKO were not hyper-reactive when compared with their own PBS controls. Lung histology shows persistence of loss of alveolar space in WT mice exposed to PM after 28 days. Area fraction was significantly higher in PM exposed WT mice after 28 days which was not significant after 24 hours. Mean chord length was significantly shorter for PM exposed at both time points for WT mice. The relative expression of phosphorylated to total CREB and ERK1/2 proteins was lower in RKO PM exposed mice compared with WT PM while STAT3 expression was lower in WT PM compared with WT PBS. PM induced a lower fold change of total proteins from the PBS controls in RKO for CREB, p38, ERK1/2, STAT3, and STAT5. JNK and p70S6k total proteins expressed a decreased fold change in WT PM exposed mice compared with WT PBS controls. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: A single dose of PM can produce persistent airway hyper-reactivity after 28 days of exposure. This PM induced injury is alleviated in the absence of RAGE, similar to what was seen at 24 hours. Inhibiting RAGE may be key to limiting the persistent inflammatory effects of high intensity PM exposure.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To compare methods of ascertaining prevalence for adrenal incidentalomas METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Retrospective electronic medical record study using Looking Glass Clinical Analytics (Streamline Health, Atlanta, GA, USA) at an urban university medical center. All patients with CT or MR imaging of the abdomen between 1997 and 2014 were identified. Patients with a documented diagnosis (ICD-9 code or problem list) for any history of adrenal disease were excluded. The prevalence of adrenal incidentalomas was ascertained by 2 different detection strategies: (1) documented diagnosis of adrenal incidentaloma or (2) imaging reports containing in the same sentence “adrenal” and “nodule*,” “adenoma*,” or “mass*,” and not containing “no” and “adrenal” in the same sentence. Adrenal pathology surprise was further established in the second approach by excluding patients having previously undergone adrenal lab testing (cortisol, aldosterone, catecholamines, adrenocorticotropic hormone, renin) or having been registered in the cancer registry for any cancer excluding superficial skin cancers. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In total, 194,624 individuals were identified in our initial search, from which 1056 were excluded for past adrenal disease (Table 1). Detection by the documented diagnosis method yielded 1578 cases (0.8%), compared with 13,697 cases (7.1%) by the imaging report method (Figure 1). Further restricting detection to true “Adrenal Surprise” by excluding those with any past adrenal lab testing and cancer history yielded 10,568 cases (6.1%). Validation studies for the 7.1% prevalence with 100 records revealed an adrenal incidentaloma positive predictive value (PPV) of 98%. When restricted to size ≥1 cm the PPV was 84%. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Comparing our first strategy using documented diagnoses as criterion for incidentaloma as used in a recent paper by Lopez D (Annals of Internal Medicine 2016; 165: 533–542), we found a prevalence of 0.8% in our population similar to her 0.6%. However, when searching at the level of radiology report text, we found a prevalence ten-fold greater at 7.1%. Therefore, adrenal incidentalomas are more robustly identified by searching radiologic reports.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The overall goal of this project is to understand the genetic and clinical differences in POAG that specifically increase risk in individuals of African genetic ancestry. We will approach this goal by completing the following objectives: (i) localize a genetic signal that accounts for the significantly increased risk for primary open-angle glaucoma in African Americans and (ii) utilize electronic health records (EHR) data to expand our understanding of risk to incorporate endophenotypes of glaucoma and other clinically recorded variables that may influence disease risk. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We will genotype at least 200 available African American samples with glaucoma on the Illumina Infinium® Expanded Multi-Ethnic Genotyping Array (MEGAEX) and perform admixture mapping. We will then access EHR data to expand our analysis beyond glaucoma to encompass other relevant risk modifiers captured in the clinical record. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We anticipate localizing a genetic signal or signals that may account for the increased POAG risk in African Americans. Our calculations indicate that we have ~81% power to detect association at a LOD score of 2 and a risk ratio of 2. Thus, we are well-powered to detect a true signal at this modest level of association DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This project will not only help to achieve precision medicine by filling in the gaps in knowledge regarding glaucoma in African Americans, but it will also address health disparities and aid in the realization of the full potential of “big data” so that all of these elements can be incorporated into a better understanding of health disparities.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: This poster presents a detailed characterization of the distribution of semantic concepts used in the text describing eligibility criteria of clinical trials reported to ClincalTrials.gov and patient notes from MIMIC-III. The final goal of this study is to find a minimal set of semantic concepts that can describe clinical trials and patients for efficient computational matching of clinical trial descriptions to potential participants at large scale. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We downloaded the free text describing the eligibility criteria of all clinical trials reported to ClinicalTrials.gov as of July 28, 2015, ~195,000 trials and ~2,000,000 clinical notes from MIMIC-III. Using MetaMap 2014 we extracted UMLS concepts (CUIs) from the collected text. We calculated the frequency of presence of the semantic concepts in the texts describing the clinical trials eligibility criteria and patient notes. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The results show a classical power distribution, Y=210X(−2.043), R2=0.9599, for clinical trial eligibility criteria and Y=513X(−2.684), R2=0.9477 for MIMIC patient notes, where Y represents the number of documents in which a concept appears and X is the cardinal order the concept ordered from more to less frequent. From this distribution, it is possible to realize that from the over, 100,000 concepts in UMLS, there are only ~60,000 and 50,000 concepts that appear in less than 10 clinical trial eligibility descriptions and MIMIC-III patient clinical notes, respectively. This indicates that it would be possible to describe clinical trials and patient notes with a relatively small number of concepts, making the search space for matching patients to clinical trials a relatively small sub-space of the overall UMLS search space. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our results showing that the concepts used to describe clinical trial eligibility criteria and patient clinical notes follow a power distribution can lead to tractable computational approaches to automatically match patients to clinical trials at large scale by considerably reducing the search space. While automatic patient matching is not the panacea for improving clinical trial recruitment, better low cost computational preselection processes can allow the limited human resources assigned to patient recruitment to be redirected to the most promising targets for recruitment.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: An accurate method to identify bleeding in large populations does not exist. Our goal was to explore bleeding representation in clinical text in order to develop a natural language processing (NLP) approach to automatically identify bleeding events from clinical notes. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We used publicly available notes for ICU patients at high risk of bleeding (n=98,586 notes). Two physicians reviewed randomly selected notes and annotated all direct references to bleeding as “bleeding present” (BP) or “bleeding absent” (BA). Annotations were made at the mention level (if 1 specific sentence/phrase indicated BP or BA) and note level (if overall note indicated BP or BA). A third physician adjudicated discordant annotations. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In 120 randomly selected notes, bleeding was mentioned 406 times with 76 distinct words. Inter-annotator agreement was 89% by the last batch of 30 notes. In total, 10 terms accounted for 65% of all bleeding mentions. We aggregated these results into 16 common stems (eg, “hemorr” for hemorrhagic and hemorrhage), which accounted for 90% of all 406 mentions. Of all 120 notes, 60% were classified as BP. The median number of stems was 5 (IQR 2, 9) in BP Versus 0 (IQR 0, 1) in BA notes. Zero bleeding mentions in a note was associated with BA (OR 28, 95% CI 6.5, 127). With 40 true negatives and 2 false negatives, the negative predictive value (NPV) of zero bleeding mentions was 95%. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Few bleeding-related terms are used in clinical practice. Absence of these terms has a high NPV for the absence of bleeding. These results suggest that a high throughput, rules-based NLP tool to identify bleeding is feasible.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To create a new semantically correct high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) platform. To demonstrate the utility of the HTP platform for observational research and can allow clinical investigators to perform studies in 5 minutes. To demonstrate the improved accuracy of observational research using this platform when compared with traditional observational research methods. To demonstrate that patients who have Roseacea are at increased risk of having obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This population is a set of 212,343 patients in the outpatient setting cared for in the Buffalo area over a 6-year period. All records for these patients were included in the study. Structured data was imported into an OMOP (OHDSI) database and all of the notes and reports were parsed by our HTP system which produces SNOMED CT codes. Each code is designated as a positive, negative or uncertain assertion and compositional expressions are automatically generated. We store the codified data 750,000,000 codes in Berkley DB, a NOSQL database, and we keep the compositional graphs in both Neo4J and in GraphDB (a triple store). Labs are coded in LOINC and drugs using RxNorm. We have developed a Web interface in .Net named BMI Search, which allows real-time query by subject matter experts. We analyzed the accuracy of structured Versus unstructured data by identifiying NVAF cases with ICD9 codes and then looked for any additional cases based on the SNOMED CT encodings of the clinical record. This was validated by 2 clinical human review of a set of 300 randomly selected cases. Separately we ran a study to determine the relative risk of OSA with and without Rosacea using the data set described above. We compared the rates using a Pearson χ2 test. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We are able to parse 7,000,000 records in an hour and a half on 1 node with 4 CPUs. This yielded 750,000,000 SNOMED CT codes. The HTP data set yielded 1849 cases using ICD9 codes and another 873 using the HTP-NLU data, leading to a final data set of 2722 cases from our population of 212,343 patients. In total, 580 patients had Rosacea;5443 patients had OSA without Rosacea and 51 patients had OSA with Rosacea. Patients with Rosaca had an 8.8% risk of OSA whereas patients without Rosacia only had a 2.6% risk of OSA. This was highly statistically significant with a p<0.0001 (Pearson χ2 test). The number needed to test was only 12. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: HTP can change how we do observational research and can lead to more accurate and more prolific investigation. This rapid turn around is part of what is necessary for both precision medicine and to create a learning health system. Patients with Rosacea are at increased risk of and should be screened for OSA.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Hepatitis C viral (HCV) infections are rising significantly both in young adults and as newly diagnosed cases in “baby boomers.” New HCV therapeutics cure over 95% of cases, and a call has been made for elimination of the epidemic by 2030; yet major HCV cascade of care (CoC) barriers exist. We secured CTSA pilot funding to obtain preliminary data for an innovative clinical trial utilizing big data modeling toward HCV elimination. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Our pilot work has developed a coordinated, real-time clinical data management process across 3 major CTSA affiliated hospital systems (MedStar Health, Emory-Grady, and UT-Southwestern), and additional data will be obtained from a pragmatic clinical trial. Electronic medical records data will be mapped to the OHDSI model, securely transmitted to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Knoxville, TN and exposed to integrated data, analytics, modeling and simulation (IDAMS). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Our U01 CTSA application proposes that HCV-IDAMS will model modifications to the established HCV CoC at community and population levels and thus simulate future outcomes. As data volume increases, system knowledge will expand and recursive applications of IDAMS will increase the accuracy of our models. This will reveal real-world reactions contingent upon population dynamics and composition, geographies, and local applications of the HCV CoC. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Only an innovative, integrated approach harnessing pragmatic clinical data, big data and supercomputing power can create a realistic model toward HCV elimination.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Translational science supports the continuum of activities from early-stage bench research to implementation of discoveries for better and faster treatments to more patients. Past studies have attempted to clarify our understanding of the spectrum of translational research by categorizing the activities into stages ranging from T0 to T4 using explanatory definitions. Unfortunately, this approach is often vague and relies on a process of manual classification and binning of research publications into predetermined categories. This study aims to provide a big-picture analysis of clinical and translational science (CTS) based on an in-depth analysis of the entire corpus of publications resulting from research funded by Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) U54 awards (through 2016). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We harvested bibliographic metadata from all papers that cited any of the U54 award numbers since the inception of the CTSA program to the most recent award announcement. Natural language processing techniques were used to create term co-occurrence networks based on English-language textual data. Relevant and nonrelevant terms were distinguished algorithmically and processed accordingly to provide the clustered visualization. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: With this approach, we uncovered 6 natural clustered areas of emphasis of published CTS research, the evolution of specific concepts through time, and gained a better understanding of their relative impact as demonstrated by citations. We performed additional analyses including discipline-specific impact assessment; identification of categories of excellence relating to both productivity and citations; characteristics of collaborative networks such as organizational, industry, and international collaborations and network dynamics; and resulting global impact of the CTSA program. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Ultimately we gained a clearer understanding of the CTSA program, its evolution through scholarly publications, and key areas of impact of the program using computational, data-driven evaluation methods.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To learn the edit distance costs of a symbolic univariate time series representation through a stochastic finite-state transducer to predict patient outcomes in intensive care units. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: High frequency data of patients in intensive care units were used as a data set. The nearest neighbor method with edit distance costs (learned by the FST) were used to classify the patient status within an hour after 10 hours of data. Several experiments were developed to estimate the parameters that better fit the model regarding the prediction metrics. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Different metrics were obtained for the several parameters. These metrics were metrics (ie, accuracy, precision, and F-measure). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our best results are compared with published works, where most of the metrics (ie, accuracy, precision, and F-measure) were improved.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The goal of this study is to assess how quality of life scores change in menopausal women before and after implementation of this aid. In addition, we are also interested in 2 process evaluation objectives: (1) determine if MyChart, the patient portal, is an effective way for this patient population to provide insight their quality of life to their providers and (2) to evaluate providers use of and reactions to the decision support tool. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This project is a collaboration between University of Rochester Medical Center and S.U.N.Y. Upstate Medical University. Participants were recruited through Upstate’s Family Medicine and OB/GYN practices via a MyChart invitation sent by the practices. Participating patients will be asked to complete a survey, through MyChart, every 3 months for 18 months. Participating health providers will be trained to use the decision support tool and participate in 3 interviews with the researchers to gain insight into the usefulness and effectiveness of the tool. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Of the 465 eligible women, 117 women responded to our MyChart invitation to join our study. Of these, 105 agreed to participate and 98 met eligibility criteria. Only half of the women currently enrolled in our study had spoken to a provider about menopause related symptoms (56.1%) prior to study enrollment. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: The goal of this study is to improve menopause related symptoms in women, thus increasing their quality of life, but it will also provide important process evaluation for using EPIC and MyChart for future research studies.
