CHS & NHLBI Acknowledgment Guidelines

Updated November 9, 2020

 

See also: NIH Guidelines for Communicating and Acknowledging Funding

 

Requirements for Acknowledging NIH-Supported Research

According to NIH grants policy, all grantee publications must include the following two statements:

  1. A specific acknowledgment of NIH grant support (CHS Acknowledgement below)
  2. A disclaimer that says:
    "The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the National Institutes of Health."
  3. In addition, all publications must be submitted to the digital archive PubMed Central (PMC) upon acceptance so that they are publicly available no later than 12 months after publication. Papers submitted to PMC will be assigned a PMC reference number that must be cited by the CHS grantee/contractor in all future NIH applications, proposals or progress reports submitted to NIH. See also NIH Public Access.

This requirement applies to all of the following:

  • research publications
  • press releases
  • other publications or documents about research that is funded by NIH

Note:

CHS GRANTS & CONTRACTS - as of November 2020      

Main CHS Numbers - Always Required

"This research was supported by contracts HHSN268201200036C, HHSN268200800007C, HHSN268201800001C, N01HC55222, N01HC85079, N01HC85080, N01HC85081, N01HC85082, N01HC85083, N01HC85086, 75N92021D00006, and grants U01HL080295 and U01HL130114 from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), with additional contribution from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). Additional support was provided by R01AG023629 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA). A full list of principal CHS investigators and institutions can be found at CHS-NHLBI.org."

Note: NINDS provided some funding to NHLBI for support of the CHS Transition Phase contract June 2005 - May 2008.  The funds were transferred between the Institutes internally, so there is no contract or grant number to list.

Other Study  Numbers - Required Only When Related Data are Used in a Given Paper

All published manuscripts that use CHS data must cite the study and all relevant funding sources. In addition, authors must include relevant CHS Reading Center contracts or Ancillary Study grant numbers alongside those for CHS main study data. Note: if echocardiography or ultrasound data are used in a manuscript, both Echocardiography/Ultrasound Reading Center contracts should be cited.
