Topic: Risk, prevention and care in population studies

Recruitment strategies are tailored in collaboration with community organizations to align with each language group's preferences, including adjusting the blood draw and interview sequence and hosting group blood draws where participants completed the procedure together, fostering a sense of community and reducing anxiety. Engaging in outreach events and providing culturally relevant incentives (i.e. Asian grocery store gift cards) helped foster trust and encourage retention. As of January 23, 2025, 252 participants have enrolled (112 Vietnamese, 56 Korean, 84 Chinese), with 217 completing both blood draw and interview, and the remaining participants awaiting scheduling. The ARISE pilot study demonstrates that collaborations with community partners played an important role in facilitating successful recruitment and study completion, specifically in conducting cognitive assessments and collecting blood samples with older Asian Americans in ADRD research. Future findings will be crucial in guiding future ADRD research in underrepresented populations.

Key findings

Recruitment strategies are tailored in collaboration with community organizations to align with each language group's preferences, including adjusting the blood draw and interview sequence and hosting group blood draws where participants completed the procedure together, fostering a sense of community and reducing anxiety.
Engaging in outreach events and providing culturally relevant incentives (i.e.
Asian grocery store gift cards) helped foster trust and encourage retention.
As of January 23, 2025, 252 participants have enrolled (112 Vietnamese, 56 Korean, 84 Chinese), with 217 completing both blood draw and interview, and the remaining participants awaiting scheduling.
The ARISE pilot study demonstrates that collaborations with community partners played an important role in facilitating successful recruitment and study completion, specifically in conducting cognitive assessments and collecting blood samples with older Asian Americans in ADRD research.

Why it matters

This pilot study describes ways to recruit older Chinese, Vietnamese, and Korean Americans into Alzheimer's disease and related dementias research, such as community partnerships and culturally relevant incentives. It reports no treatment, cure, or prevention findings.
