This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), totals $352,125 and is focused on evaluating heart rate variability (HRV) as a biomarker for clinical symptoms and psychological functioning in pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

The award will support a study to: 1) determine the relationship between baseline HRV and clinical symptoms of IBD, anxiety, and depression in 40 adolescents with IBD, and 2) assess whether HRV changes with a virtual, biofeedback-enhanced cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) treatment intervention for these youth. This research builds on the awardee's prior K23 grant and is intended to establish HRV as a clinically relevant and modifiable biomarker that can be used in future treatment studies for pediatric patients with IBD and related psychological distress.
