CDC requests OMB approval to continue
collecting information in Phase 4 of a registry study known as
SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth. OMB first approved this study in 2011
(OMB # 0920-0904, exp. 11/30/2014), and a revision was approved in
2014 (exp. 8/31/2017). OMB approval is requested for the final
three years of the five year project. Phase 4 is built upon
activities a multi-center initiated in 2000 through collaborative
research project that involved six clinical sites and a data
coordinating center, all funded through cooperative agreements.
Phase 3 and 4 only included 5 clinical sites and a data
coordinating center. A number of changes have been implemented and
will continue during Phase 4. Respondents will continue to be youth
< 20 years of age who have been diagnosed with diabetes or their
parents. Information will support a case registry that can be used
to estimate the incidence and prevalence of diabetes in youth in
the U.S. IN Phase 3, CDC also funded a cohort component to this
study. For Phase 4, CDC is no longer funding this component. The
registry study will continue to collect information from
participants who were initially diagnosed with diabetes in 2016 to
complete an in-person study examination.
