Clinical trials continue to disproportionately underrepresent people of color. Increasing representation of diverse backgrounds among clinical research personnel has the potential to yield greater representation in clinical trials and more efficacious medical interventions by addressing medical mistrust. In 2019, North Carolina Central University (NCCU), a Historically Black College and University with a more than 80% underrepresented student population, established the Clinical Research Sciences Program with support from the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) program at neighboring Duke University. This program was designed to increase exposure of students from diverse educational, racial, and ethnic backgrounds to the field of clinical research, with a special focus on health equity education. In the first year, the program graduated 11 students from the two-semester certificate program, eight of whom now hold positions as clinical research professionals. This article describes how leveraging the CTSA program helped NCCU build a framework for producing a highly trained, competent, and diverse workforce in clinical research responsive to the call for increased diversity in clinical trial participation.

Telemedicine enables critical human communication and interaction between researchers and participants in decentralized research studies. There is a need to better understand the overall scope of telemedicine applications in clinical research as the basis for further research. This narrative, nonsystematic review of the literature sought to review and discuss applications of telemedicine, in the form of synchronous videoconferencing, in clinical research. We searched PubMed to identify relevant literature published between January 1, 2013, and June 30, 2023. Two independent screeners assessed titles and abstracts for inclusion, followed by single-reviewer full-text screening, and we organized the literature into core themes through consensus discussion. We screened 1044 publications for inclusion. Forty-eight publications met our inclusion and exclusion criteria. We identified six core themes to serve as the structure for the narrative review: infrastructure and training, recruitment, informed consent, assessment, monitoring, and engagement. Telemedicine applications span all stages of clinical research from initial planning and recruitment to informed consent and data collection. While the evidence base for using telemedicine in clinical research is not well-developed, existing evidence suggests that telemedicine is a potentially powerful tool in clinical research.

For the past 4 years, as part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) grant award number UL1TR001436, the Clinical Translational Science Institute of Southeast Wisconsin (CTSI) has used process engineering approaches to identify and understand barriers that local researchers and other stakeholders face when engaging in clinical and translational science. We describe these approaches and present preliminary results. We identified barriers from published and unpublished work at other CTSA hubs, supplemented by surveys and semi-structured interviews of CTSI faculty. We then used a multifaceted approach to organize, visualize, and analyze the barriers. We have identified 27 barriers to date. We ranked their priority for CTSI to address based on the barrier’s impact, the feasibility of intervention, and whether addressing the barrier aligned with CTSI’s institutional role. This approach provides a systematic framework to scope and address the “barriers to research problem” at CTSI institutions.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objectives of this workshop were to: (1) provide learners with a space to become aware of and discuss the history of the LGBTQ+ community in medical and public health research; (2) apply frameworks for LGBTQ+ inclusivity in research, inspired by lived experience and multimedia; and (3) assess LGBTQ+ research inclusivity best practices. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The CTSC provided the LGBT Community Center of Greater Cleveland (Center) with access to academic resources via an affiliate account and insights on the clinical and translational science research process. Members of the CTSC Research Equity, Accessibility, Diversity, and Inclusion team met regularly with the education and programming team at the Center to review research findings for workshop segments, ideate and provide feedback on activities, and strategize to ensure a psychologically safe virtual environment for learners. Zoom registration was used for workshop registration. An evaluation survey, created by the LGBT Community Center of Greater Cleveland (Center), was deployed by the CTSC to learners after the workshop. Respondents reported that the LGBTQ+ terminology focus was most valuable. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: To maximize investment in and scale theLGBTQ+ Inclusivity For Researchers workshop, the LGBT Community Center of Greater Cleveland offered a shortened version to their Youth Participatory Action Research group and will continue to offer the workshop in their suite of program/educational offerings. The CTSC plans to offer opportunities to co-host the workshop at its hospital system partner institutions, with room to tailor content based on internal LGBT resources (e.g., gender care offered at the institution). We hope to see a remarkable increase in LGBTQ+ identifying researchers, LGBTQ+ participation in research studies and clinical trials, and LGBTQ+ research topics/ideas/questions in response to CTSC pilots, local, national, and global funding opportunities. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: LGBTQ+ people are less likely to have a regular health care provider—impeding screening, diagnosis, and treatment. This is reflected in health research where clinical research participation may follow a diagnosis. By providing tools for LGBTQ+ research inclusion, we will catalyze more research with LGBTQ+ people—as researchers and participants.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Although many physicians conduct clinical trials as Principle Investigators, a systematic training is often lacking. Instead, most receive on-site training, potentially compromising data quality and human subject safety. This research assesses the landscape for physician training through medical school curriculums. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This project explored training programs for physician researchers, specifically in the emerging field of quality management systems (QMS). To understand the scope of academic research available for QMS and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) training and lack of clinical trial training implemented in medical school curricula, a literature review was conducted. Available training for physicians was assessed through existing training programs from the FDA, NIH, DIAMOND, ACRP, and Google for accessibility in terms of costs, completion timelines and certification, format (online vs. in-person), and inclusion of GCP and QMS training in the curriculum RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Literature review revealed that not much is known about physician researcher training beyond the institutional requirement for minimal GCP review. Examination of select medical school curriculum also discovered a lack of clinical trial training for students interested in clinical research. Furthermore, existing training programs and modules available for physicians are limited as their syllabi do not include QMS training. In addition, these programs commonly have inaccessible registration links, are expensive, and have significant time commitments for in-person courses. These findings support the need for more accessible and effective training and certification tools for physician researchers. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT : QMS training is not included medical school curricula or programs for physician researchers, potentially compromising data integrity and subject protection. This research supports the development of essential QMS training concepts and practical approaches for physician researcher clinical trials.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Falls are a major source of morbidity and disability in the aging population. Twenty to thirty percent of older adults who fall suffer moderate to severe injuries such as lacerations, hip fractures, and head traumas. A serious component of falling often overlooked is the fear of falling. The fear of falling is part of a debilitating spiral that leads to decreased activity and muscle weakness. The goal of this investigation was to determine if a novel 2-phase rehabilitation program designed to reduce the fear of falling and increase muscle strength could improve postural control during falls in older adults with balance impairments. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Four older adults participated in 8 cognitive restructuring workshops entitled A Matter of Balance (AMOB): 2 hours/week, total of 16 hours, designed to restructure thought patterns relative to falls and reduce the fear of falling. Within 1–2 weeks of completion, participants enrolled in Phase II: a standardized 10-week lower-extremity strengthening program. Participants performed high-intensity concentric resistance exercise on a modified seated ergometer (Eccentron, BTE Technologies) twice per week for up to 20 minutes per session. Fear of falling was assessed using the Activities-Specific Balance Confidence (ABC) scale. Postural control was assessed during reproducible falls at 3 phases: baseline (T0), after Phase I AMOB (T1), and after Phase II strengthening (T2). Falls were induced by treadmill perturbations (VGait system, MotekForce Link) occurring at slow and fast belt accelerations. A 3×3 ANOVA was conducted on postural control outcomes with phase and stepping cycle as independent factors. Pairwise comparisons were analyzed with the Bonferroni correction. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Statistically significant main effects were found for phase and stepping cycle (p=0.003, p=0.00). No statistically significant interaction effects were found. However, a trend toward increasing Center of Pressure-Center of Mass (COP-COM) distance occurred after each intervention phase (T1 and T2) during fast treadmill perturbations. The greatest increase in COP-COM distance was found at 100% of the stepping cycle during fast perturbations following 10 weeks of resistance training compared with baseline (p=0.006). No significant differences were found in fear of falling between phases (p=0.682). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: A large COP-COM distance suggests the individual is able to allow straying of the COM outside of the functional base while recovering balance. Meanwhile, a small COP-COM distance represents a conservative approach to postural tasks, in that the performer does not feel stable enough to allow separation of the COP and COM. These pilot data suggest that a 2-phase rehabilitation program can improve specific components of postural control during recovery from falls. Rehabilitation interventions aimed at reducing falls in older adults should consider adding a component of cognitive restructuring in conjunction with standard of care resistance training.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Opioids are the first-line treatment for moderate to severe cancer-related pain. Increased awareness of opioid prescription misuse and adverse outcomes has prompted statements on their use from multiple national medical groups. In this study we characterize national-level opioid prescription patterns among gynecologic oncologists treating Medicare beneficiaries. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) database was used to access Medicare Part D beneficiary data (2016). All available opioid claims prescribed by gynecologic oncologists were identified. Medication type, prescription length and other prescribing factors were recorded. Physician demographics were obtained from departmental websites and accrediting bodies. Physicians with <10 opioid claims are not included in the CMS database. Bivariate statistical analysis including chi-squared, Fisher’s exact test and Wilcoxon rank-sum test were performed to compare variables with threshold for significance set at p<0.05. Linear regression modeling was also performed to examine association of gender with number of opioids prescribed. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 494 board-certified gynecologic oncologists were included in this analysis. In 2016, gynecologic oncologists wrote 23,584 opioid prescriptions for 267,824 days of treatment (average of 9.24 prescribed days per claim). The most commonly prescribed opioid was oxycodone/acetaminophen (41%). Male physicians had significantly more opioid prescription claims than females (p<0.01) including after adjusting for differences in years of experience. The majority of physicians had 11-50 opioid prescription claims (68%). A minority were high prescribing physicians with >100 opioid claims (11%). Of these, the overwhelming majority were male (82%) and late career (46%, >15 years since board certification). Physicians in the South had the greatest number of opioid prescription claims and significantly more than physicians in the Northeast, who had the fewest (p<0.01). Mean number of opioid claims increased with increasing years of experience (p<0.05). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Among gynecologic oncologists, there were gender-based, regional and experience-related variations in opioid prescribing in the Medicare population in 2016. Further longitudinal studies are required to elucidate secular trends in opioid prescription practice.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a relatively radioresistant disease, and inhibition of DNA homologous recombination (HR) repair in combination with radiation therapy (RT) is a potentially attractive strategy to overcome radioresistance. We have found that the expression of the HR protein RAD18 is upregulated in PDAC cells. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Standard clonogenic assays, γH2aX foci staining, HR-GFP reporter assay, and western blot analysis of DNA damage response proteins were performed in MIA-PaCa2 (MP2) and PANC-1 cells following knockdown of RAD18 in cells via short hairpin RNA (shRNA). Drug targeting of RAD18 was achieved through the use of a USP-7 inhibitor, P5091. Cells with or without stable knockdown of RAD18 were implanted orthotopically in the pancreas of athymic nude mice and treated with sham radiation or radiation to a dose of 20 Gy in 5 daily fractions once tumors reached 100-150 mm3. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Stable knockdown of RAD18 in MP2 and PANC-1 resulted in decreased radiation clonogenic survival in vitro (dose enhancement factor (DEF)=1.52 and 1.51, respectively), decreased DNA repair after radiation as measured by the increased number of γH2aX nuclear foci assay at 6, 12, and 24 hours (all p<0.05), decreased HR activation following DNA damage via an HR-GFP reporter assay (p=0.039), and increased tumor growth delay following radiation in vivo (p<0.001). P5091 treatment of both MP2 and PANC-1 resulted in efficient knockdown of RAD18, which was confirmed through western blotting, qRT-PCR, and luciferase reporter assays. P5091 increased radiosensitization, yH2aX nuclear foci remained elevated at 12 and 24 hours (p<0.05), and HR repair was also reduced (p=0.014). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Herein, we show the HR repair protein RAD18, and that modulation of RAD18 expression correlates with in vitro and in vivo radiosensitization through altered HR-mediated DNA repair. USP7 inhibition successfully reduced RAD18 expression and resulted in enhanced radiosensitization.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Objectives and goals of this study are to (i) determine whether IBS-D patients randomized to either rifaximin or low FODMAP diet show improvement in IBS-related symptoms; and (2) identify using longitudinal analyses how SIBO status and fecal microbiota features associate with response to either rifaximin or low FODMAP dietary intervention. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: 42 patients ≥ 18 years of age who meet Rome IV criteria for IBS-D will be randomized to receive either rifaximin or low FODMAP diet intervention. The primary outcome will be the proportion of responders to intervention which is defined as ≥ 30% reduction in mean daily abdominal pain or bloating by visual analog scale compared with baseline. Exclusion criteria will include: (a) history of microscopic colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, or other organic disease that could explain symptoms, (b) prior gastrointestinal surgery, other than appendectomy or cholecystectomy > 6 months prior to study initiation, (c) prior use of rifaximin or formal dietary interventions for IBS-D, (d) use of antibiotics within the past 3 months, or (e) use of probiotics within 1 month of study entry. Glucose hydrogen breath tests will be performed at the beginning and end of the trial to evaluate for SIBO. Fecal samples will be collected at 0, 2, and 6 weeks to determine changes in fecal microbial composition and structure. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: This study seeks to examine whether longitudinal analyses of small intestinal and colonic microbiota can subtype IBS-D subjects into clinically relevant phenotypes. A total of 18 subjects have been enrolled into the study. Clinical variables, hydrogen breath test results, and fecal microbiota data are being collected for ongoing analysis. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Results from this study may help move treatment of IBS from a purely symptom based approach to a more individualized approach by stratifying IBS-D patients into distinct clinical phenotypes which are amenable to targeted therapeutic approaches.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objective of this study was to use NIH RePORTER (Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools) to analyze K99 funding trends and determine if R00 to R01 or R21 achievement time correlates with the future success of an early-stage NIH-funded investigator. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: All award data were collected from NIH RePORTER. All K99 awards and funding data in this study were limited to All Clinical Departments (ACD). All researchers (n = 1,148) and awards (n = 2,022) were identified through a K99 search from FY 2007 to FY 2022 across ACD. Historic trends in K99 awards and funding from NIH Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 to FY 2022 were investigated. An R00 dataset was generated from NIH RePORTER. The K99 to R00 achievement statistics from FY 2007 to FY 2022 was investigated. NIH annual datafiles for FY 2007 to FY 2021 were aggregated to generate a master datafile of all R01 (n = 395,505) and R21 awards (n = 61,766). R01 and R21 award data were linked to the researcher previously identified through the K99 search. The connection between K99/R00 awardees and subsequent R01 or R21 awards was focused on. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: From FY 2008 to FY 2022, the number of K99 awards per year increased 123.4%, from 94 to 210. Over the same period, after correcting for inflation, the NIH K99 budget increased 127.0% while the NIH program level budget increased 17.3%. For researchers who achieved their first R01 or R21 0–3 years versus 3–6 years after the start of their R00, their average funding per year since the start of the R00 phase was $467,425 versus $290,604, respectively (p < 0.001). In summary, NIH investment in the K99 award pathway has substantially outpaced the NIH program level budget increase, and there is a strong relationship between average funding per year since the start of the R00 phase and time from R00 to R01 or R21. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our study offers additional evidence of the Matthew effect in science, where previous success generates future success. This analysis may be useful to clinical departments as they evaluate selecting new and retaining current biomedical scientists for independent research positions.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Intraocular pressure is the most significant risk factor for glaucoma. Mechanosensitive proteins may have a critical role in transducing mechanical stimuli that ultimately lead to death of retinal ganglion cells. Our goal is to use genetic and functional approaches to discover mechanosensitive ion channels that mediate the progression of glaucoma. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Association data, obtained using a logistic regression model that included age, gender and population substructure as co-variates, for 2,576 SNPs located in the PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 genomic regions were extracted from the NEIGHBORHOOD genome-wide association study results for primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) (3,853 cases and 33,480 controls) and the subset of cases with intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements > 21mmHg (high-tension, HTG) (1868 cases and 33,480 controls). Rare coding PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 variants were evaluated using logistic regression and SNP data from the Human Exome array in 2606 POAG cases and 2606 controls and the subset of 1868 HTG cases and 2606 controls. Immunohistochemistry was used to characterize the expression of Piezo1 and Piezo2 in mouse eye sections. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Exome data analysis identified two protein-altering variants associated with lower glaucoma risk (P<0.05): a PIEZO1 missense allele (Arg1527His; OR= 0.18, P= 0.001) and a variant disrupting a splice donor site (c.1107+1G>C; OR=0.38, P= 0.02), that prematurely truncates the protein. Investigation of the NEIGHBORHOOD GWAS dataset identified nominal association with common PIEZO2 variants (minor allele frequency > 0.3) in POAG overall (top SNP rs264179, P= 0.008) and in the HTG subgroup (top SNP rs264160, P= 0.001). The associated PIEZO2 SNPs are significantly associated with gene expression in lymphocytes (P< 1x10-8) with the risk allele correlated with decreased gene expression. Piezo1 and Piezo2 are expressed in many ocular tissues in the mouse, including cornea, ciliary body and retina. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: We identify rare, protein-altering PIEZO1 variants associated with lower glaucoma risk and show that Piezo1 and Piezo2 are broadly expressed in the eye. Common variants influencing PIEZO2 expression also show nominal association with POAG risk. Inhibition of Piezo1 or augmentation of Piezo2 could be novel therapeutic strategies for glaucoma.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Long-acting insulin containing protamine is more likely to be associated with skin depigmentation. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: An acquired disorder, skin depigmentation was found to be significantly correlated with diabetes. While a recent meta-analysis pointed at a possible similar pathogenesis, the possibility of vitiligo occurring as a drug-induced disease was never explored. This study aimed at elucidating whether utilization of specific insulins may play a role. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Records from the Medical Panels Expenditure Survey (MEPS) database made available by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality were used to identify all injectable insulin users (n=8867). ICD-9/10 codes were abstracted from the medical conditions files for all the subjects reporting any type of injectable insulin use (1996-2017). Skin depigmentation codes identified in our dataset were 709 and L81. Insulins were categorized based on duration of action, short-acting (SA), intermediate-acting (IA), and long-acting (LA), as well as based on formulation ingredients (zinc, protamine-zinc, other), and insulin combination (SA with or without IA/LA containing or not protamine-zinc). The association between skin depigmentation occurrence and insulin type and/or category was assessed by Fisher’s exact test. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 225 out of 8867 individuals were diagnosed with skin depigmentation. Incidence of skin depigmentation was 2.25% in SA users (n1=3606, p=0.355), 2.24% in LA users (n2=3910, p=0.337), and 2.39% in IA users (n3=4015, p=0.062). Occurrence of skin depigmentation was similar between users of insulin mono- or combo therapy (p=0.758). Interestingly, among IA insulins, insulin protamine-zinc insulin (n4=3992) distinguished as being mainly responsible for the association with the occurrence of skin depigmentation (p=0.062), whereas insulin zinc was not (n5=37, p=1.000). The highest skin depigmentation incidence was observed among Pacific Islanders (2.66%, p=0.110). Males distinguished by a skin depigmentation incidence of 2.34% vs. 1.91% in females (p=0.086). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: We report that presence of protamine-zinc may play a role in the development of skin depigmentation. It is uncertain whether this risk may be shared equally by insulin users diagnosed with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Of note, we observed a higher skin depigmentation incidence than that reported by community- (0.2%) or hospital-based (1.8%) studies.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Older adults are often underrepresented in research due to recruitment and retention barriers, among others. Frameworks have been developed to address these barriers but have not been disseminated to research teams without aging expertise. We aimed to test Age-Friendly tools among non-aging-trained research teams. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Our team developed and/or adapted seven Age-Friendly research tools to improve inclusion of older adults in research. Tools included a communication guide, Age-Friendly research checklist, knowledge consent check, and condolence card template, among others. Non-aging-trained research team members (n= 21) were invited to pilot test them and share strengths, limitations, and areas for improvement for each tool. Feedback was collected for up to 4 months using REDCap surveys and analyzed for common themes. Participants provided written informed consent and received a stipend of $1000 upon the completion of the surveys. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Sixteen participants (76%) from primarily cancer and neurology departments completed at least one survey. The communication guide, research checklist, and knowledge check were implemented the most within the participants' study populations. Participants shared that the tools were user-friendly, easy to access, and well-explained through webinar trainings (offered separately) or instruction sheets. The most frequently reported barriers were lack of time, industry-sponsored trial restrictions, and lack of age-appropriate study populations. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Age-Friendly tools were acceptable and valuable among non-aging-trained research members. Dissemination of these tools could improve the experience for research teams and older adults and help align demographics of enrolled study populations with demographics of the condition being studied.

Objectives/Goals: Male urogenital tract development is influenced by hormonal signals, which may be disrupted by endocrine-disrupting chemicals like lead. This observational study investigates the potential link between lead exposure and hypospadias rates in Puerto Rican boys, focusing on regional hotspots of hypospadias. Methods/Study Population: Lead levels from water plants across Puerto Rico were analyzed using PR Aqueduct and Sewer Authority water quality certificates. Hypospadias rates in seven health regions were obtained from the Puerto Rico Department of Health’s Birth Defects Prevention and Surveillance System. Data were from Puerto Rican boys born to women aged 15 years or older from 2017 to 2022. Rates were calculated using 2020 Census data, and statistical analyses were conducted using Intellectus. Results/Anticipated Results: Significant differences in hypospadias rates and lead levels were found across health regions, with the highest rates observed in Bayamón and Arecibo (5 cases per-100,000 births). Bayamón had the highest average lead concentration (14.33 ppb). A Kruskal–Wallis test showed significant regional variation in lead levels (χ²(6)  =  16.82, p  =  0.010) and hypospadias rates (χ²(6)  =  16.53, p  =  0.011). Post hoc analyses revealed key differences between regions, notably Bayamón and Metro. Discussion/Significance of Impact: These findings suggest a potential spatial link between prenatal lead exposure and hypospadias risk, underscoring the need for targeted public health interventions. Future studies will explore anti-Müllerian hormone expression in lead-exposed Sertoli cells to better understand the biological mechanisms behind these patterns.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Our may suggest that delta hsTrop could be of prognostic value in patients with sepsis. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: - METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We analyzed data of those presenting to the ED over an 18-month period with sepsis and at least one episode of hypotension after 1 liter of IV fluids. We performed a retrospective analysis using a cohort derived from modified inclusion and exclusion criteria from the CLOVERS study. The outcomes of patients found to have a delta (at least 6 pg/dL) in high sensitivity troponin T were compared to patients who did not have a delta or have a troponin level measured. We examined demographic and treatment characteristics of this cohort and the incidence of adverse outcomes were determined. We used multivariable logistic regression analysis to test the association of hsTrop and mortality. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 778 patients met criteria to be included in the cohort. 279 patients had a change in high sensitivity troponins, an incidence of 35.9%. Patients with a delta were more likely to be older, male, and have a higher Charlson index than patients without a delta or those that had no troponin measured. They were also more likely to have a history of chronic lung disease, heart failure and hypertension. Change in high sensitivity troponins were associated with higher in-hospital mortality. When adjusted for age, gender, and Charlson Index, the association between a positive delta troponin and mortality remained statistically significant. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: In patients with severe sepsis and septic shock, the presence of a positive or negative delta hsTrop at 2 hours is associated with increased mortality. Measurement of high sensitivity troponin early in the patient’s hospital course may have prognostic utility.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Sexism harms women’s well-being, affecting life satisfaction and self-doubt in complex ways (Shattell etal., 2008; Oswald etal., 2018). This study examines how hostile and benevolent sexist attitudes moderates the link between experiences of benevolent sexism, self-doubt, and life satisfaction in Latinx women. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Participants included 57 English-speaking Latinx women residing in the United States, with a mean age of 31.89 (SD=10.14) years. The majority (61.4%, n=35) identified as Mexican, and most identified as second generation or later (80.7%, n=46). Participants completed surveys assessing hostile and benevolent sexist attitudes (Glick & Fiske, 1996), self-doubt (Oleson etal., 2000), life satisfaction (Diener etal., 1985), and experiences with three aspects of benevolent sexism – protective paternalism (PP), heterosexual intimacy (HI), and complimentary gender differentiation (CGD) (Oswald etal., 2018). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Moderation analyses were conducted to examine the moderating role of hostile and benevolent sexist attitudes between experiences of benevolent sexism (PP, HI, & CGD) and well-being measures (self-doubt and life satisfaction). An example finding revealed a significant interaction effect between benevolent sexist attitudes and experiences with CGD on satisfaction with lifeF(1,53)=8.34,p<.01. For participants who endorsed high benevolent sexist attitudes, experiences with CGD was associated with increased satisfaction with life (b=.78, p<.001), while the effect of experiences with CGD on life satisfaction was attenuated for those who endorsed low benevolent sexist attitudes (b=.30, p<.05). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: These findings have important implications on the well-being of Latinx women as they indicate that those who reject sexist attitudes risk their well-being when confronted with benevolent sexism, unlike those who endorse to such beliefs, potentially gaining increased life satisfaction at the cost of embracing benevolent sexist behavior.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The Empower Lab was established in 2015 with the goal of providing students with hands-on research experience in sexual and gender-based violence and health. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The Empower Lab consists of 10–12 undergraduate, graduate, and medical students at a time. Students undergo a rigorous application process, and agree to volunteer 8 hours per week for at least 1 year. Students are assigned to teams, and learn research skills such as literature searches, systematic reviews, research question generation, study design, IRB procedures, database creation and management, data collection and analysis, oral and poster presentation, manuscript preparation, team collaboration and communication, advocacy, and leadership. Students start as research assistants, and can be promoted to team leader, and associate director of research. Students mentor and teach each other, and are supervised by the principal investigator (PI). A survey skill self-assessment is administered to lab members on entry to the lab, every 4–6 months, and upon exit. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In total, 20 students have participated in the lab to date, and 12 are currently enrolled. Eighty percent of the lab members are women. The students are 45% undergraduates, 15% graduate (nursing, social work, public health), 20% medical students, and 10% not currently enrolled in school (gap year). Twenty students completed entry surveys, 11 students have completed interim surveys, and 5 students have completed exit surveys. Examination of current surveys indicates that students are gaining skills throughout the lab experience. Free-text feedback provided further insight. Currently, the lab has 5 IRB-approved studies actively recruiting participants, 4 manuscripts being written, and 3 studies in the development phase. Students have presented at three local and 2 national meetings to date. Changes have been made to the lab structure over time in order to provide clear expectations and feedback, and strengthen student performance. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: The Empower Lab is an innovative public health lab that provides opportunities for real-world research experience for students. The teamwork, collaboration, and structure of the lab permit mentoring, support, and teaching from peers, as well as from the PI. The Lab increases the PI’s productivity. Students are encouraged to develop and implement their own research ideas, further encouraging independence and initiative. Although the number of surveys is limited to date, they indicate improvement in skills and confidence among lab members. The predominance of women in the lab suggests that this is a strong model for recruitment and retention of women in STEM.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Surgical training is constrained by duty hour limits, bias, and a trial-and-error learning process. Surgeon skill variation is a healthcare system disparity that can impact patient outcomes. Incorporating validated, standardized assessment tools and machine learning (ML) algorithms may help to standardize and reduce bias in surgeon education. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: To support assessment tool and ML algorithm development, we are curating an annotated video registry of neurosurgical procedures. Point-of-view video of resident and attending neurosurgeons performing craniotomies is recorded via an eye-tracking headset. A Delphi panel of neurosurgeons will review the video and determine which represent expert versus trainee performance. Neurosurgery attendings will be interviewed to provide descriptions of craniotomies which will be used to develop an assessment rubric. A Delphi panel will determine what rubric components should be maintained. New craniotomy videos will be viewed by attendings in a blinded fashion while completing the assessment rubric. An online feedback platform is being developed allowing residents to prospectively track assessment data. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We anticipate development of an annotated, institutional video database featuring craniotomies performed by residents and attending neurosurgeons. Using a Delphi approach, we anticipate achieving consensus on which videos reflect expert versus trainee performance. We anticipate development of a novel craniotomy assessment rubric that is both valid and reliable. Our online feedback platform will allow prospective tracking of assessment data from multiple sources and enhanced transparency in the feedback process. The video registry and assessment data will enable development of novel ML algorithms able to recognize craniotomy segments and estimate operator skill. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Building a video registry of procedures, validated assessment tools, and a prototype feedback platform enables a pipeline for ML algorithm development. Together these tools will help to standardize and optimize resident education translating to earlier operative independence, improved patient safety, and reduced bias during surgical training.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The impact of baseline BMI on glycemic response to group medical visits (GMV) and weight management (WM)-based interventions is unclear. Our objective is to determine how baseline BMI class impacts patient responses to GMV and interventions that combine WM/GMV. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We will perform a secondary analysis of Jump Start, a randomized, controlled trial that compared the effectiveness of a GMV-based low carbohydrate diet-focused WM program (WM/GMV) to traditional GMV-based medication management (GMV) on diabetes control. The primary and secondary outcomes will be change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and weight at 48 months, respectively. Study participants will be stratified into BMI categories defined by BMI 27-29.9kg/m2, 30.0-34.9kg/m2, 35.0-39.9kg/m2, and ≥40.0kg/m2. Hierarchical mixed models will be used to examine the differential impact of the WM/GMV intervention compared to GMV on changes in outcomes by BMI class category. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Jump Start enrolled 263 overweight Veterans (BMI ≥ 27kg/m2) with type 2 diabetes. At baseline, mean BMI was 35.3 and mean HbA1c was 9.1. 14.5% were overweight (BMI 27–29.9) and 84.5% were obese (BMI ≥ 30). The proposed analyses are ongoing. We anticipate that patients in the higher BMI obesity classes will demonstrate greater reductions in HbA1c and weight with the WM/GMV intervention relative to traditional GMV. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This work will advance the understanding of the relationship between BMI and glycemic response to targeted interventions, and may ultimately provide guidance for interventions for type 2 diabetes.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The primary goal of this project is to verify findings from a murine prostatitis model in the human setting. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Methods include primary cell isolation and culture, FACS, adoptive transfer, 3D cell culture, histology, immunofluorescence, xenograft, and tissue recombination. The study population includes patients undergoing HoLEP or radical prostatectomy due to hyperplasia or adjacent bladder or prostate cancer. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Having verified similar sensitivities to androgen receptor (AR) inhibitors between naive murine and human basal prostate stem cells, we anticipate that autoimmune inflammation in humans affects the response of basal prostate stem cells in a manner similar to the murine setting as well. This includes increased proliferation, increased differentiation, and decreased response to AR inhibitors. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: The identification of survival mechanisms used by basal prostate stem cells in an androgen deprived environment may give insight to the process by which prostate cancer becomes androgen independent. The effect of inflammation on proliferation, survival, and AR signaling in these cells may also provide information relevant to cancer initiation and progression.
