This ICR is approved consistent with revised supporting statements (parts A and B) and with the understanding that funding is available to continue the longitudinal component of this study beyond the three years requested for approval (although it is only the first 3 years of the study that is being approved here). NIH shall exercise caution in reporting study results and will disclose all study limitations when such results are publicly disclosed, particularly concerning the cross-sectional components of this study (e.g. the inability of this study to rigorously assess differences by country of origin within the 4 study sites due to geographical clustering by country of origin, etc.).
