“…Also reuse of data for primary care research purposes such as early detection of cancer is almost becoming commonplace, as is demonstrated by the rapidly evolving practice-based research networks (PBRNs) in Europe, Canada and the USA. These networks provide a basic facility for primary care research, and often use anonymized data uploaded by participating practices to a central database [12][13][14].…”

“…Among the respondents, 65% had some affiliation with a CTSA; this is higher than the 50% reported by the PBRN Registry in 2011. 20 More detail of PBRN involvement in CTSA activities could help explain the role CTSAs play in the use of community engagement strategies. Further research is still needed to identify other factors that support the use of community engagement strategies.…”

Purpose: Practice-based research networks (PBRNs) are increasingly encouraged to use community engagement approaches. The extent to which PBRNs engage clinic and community partners in strategies to recruit and retain participants from their local communities (specifically racial/ethnic communities) is the focus of this study.Methods: The design was a cross-sectional survey of PBRN directors in the United States. Survey respondents indicated whether their research network planned for, implemented, and has capacity for activities that engage clinic and community partners in 7 recommended strategies organized into study phases, called the cycle of trust. The objectives of the national survey were to (1) describe the extent to which PBRNs across the United States routinely implement the strategies recommended for recruiting diverse patient groups and (2) identify factors associated with implementing the recommended strategies.Results: The survey response rate was 63%. Activities that build trust often are used more with clinic partners than with community partners. PBRNs that adopt engagement strategies when working with clinic and community partners have less difficulty in recruiting diverse populations. Multivariate analysis showed that the targeting racial/ethnic communities for study recruitment, Clinical and Translational Science Award affiliation, and planning to use community engagement strategies were independent correlates of PBRN implementation of the recommended strategies. In recent years, policymakers and researchers have expressed concern that the medical research system produces new knowledge that may not be incorporated effectively into clinical practice.1,2 Acquisition of much of the evidence base of health careThis article was externally peer reviewed.

“…1 Primary care research includes (1) theoretical and methodological research, (2) health care research (studies addressing primary care processes), (3) clinical research (studies addressing the impact of primary care on patients), and (4) health systems research (studies of health system issues impacting primary care including the quality improvement process). 2 Among the studies included in this issue, 5 fit into category 1, 6 challenges to the future development of PBRNs, 7 and the suggestion that multinetwork studies might benefit from cultivation and use of coordinating centers. 4 Of the 143 PBRNs registered with the AHRQ Resource Center (a 30% increase in 1 year), more than 80% were local or regional.…”

This seventh annual practice-based research theme issue of the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine highlights primary care research conducted in practice-based research networks (PBRNs). The issue includes discussion of (1) theoretical and methodological research, (2) health care research (studies addressing primary care processes), (3) clinical research (studies addressing the impact of primary care on patients), and (4) health systems research (studies of health system issues impacting primary care including the quality improvement process). We had a noticeable increase in submissions from PBRN collaborations, that is, studies that involved multiple networks. As PBRNs cooperate to recruit larger and more diverse patient samples, greater generalizability and applicability of findings lead to improved primary care processes.
