Information Collection Request Title:
DoNation General Workplace Campaign
Scorecard OMB No. 0906–XXXX–New.
Abstract: HRSA’s ‘DoNation’
Campaign for Organ Donation will enlist
the help of America’s workplaces to
increase the number of registered organ,
eye, and tissue donors by hosting
awareness, education, outreach, and
donor registration events in their
companies, workplaces, and
communities. This campaign now
incorporates HRSA’s Hospital
Campaign, which encourages America’s
medical facilities and hospitals to
promote organ, eye, and tissue donor
registrations to streamline
communications, better leverage
internal and external resources, and
combine campaign efforts under one
unified and identifiable visual brand
and name. A scorecard identifies
activities that all participants can
implement and assigns points to each
activity. Participants that earn a certain
number of points annually will be
recognized by HRSA and other national
organizations that support the
campaign’s mission. HRSA intends to
create an electronic version of the
scorecard that will be user-friendly and
will collect information from America’s
workplaces regarding their donor
registration and outreach activities. The
scorecard will provide HRSA with data
throughout the campaign year.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: There is a substantial
imbalance in the United States between
the number of people whose life
depends on an organ transplant
(currently more than 107,000) and the
annual number of organ donors
(approximately 39,000 living and
deceased donors since January 2020). In
response to the need for increased
donation, HRSA conducts public
outreach initiatives to encourage the
American public to enroll in their state
donor registry as future organ, eye, and
tissue donors.
The scorecard motivates and
facilitates participation in the campaign,
provides the basis for rewarding
participants for their accomplishments,
and enables HRSA to measure and
evaluate the campaign process and
outcome. The scorecard also enables
HRSA to make data-based decisions and
improvements for subsequent
campaigns.
Likely Respondents: Community
development and public relations staff
of organ procurement and other
donation organizations, hospital and
workplace staff and/or leadership, such
as human resources or public relations/
communications professionals and other
staff members, and/or volunteers who
work with workplaces and organizations
on organ donation initiatives.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.

ORI found that Respondent engaged
in research misconduct by intentionally,
knowingly, and/or recklessly falsifying
and fabricating the experimental
methodology to demonstrate results
obtained under different experimental
conditions that were included in the
following one (1) published paper and
two (2) grant applications submitted for
PHS funds:
• Isoniazid and Rifapentine

• R01 AI147947–01A1, ‘‘Effect of
prior latent TB infection on immune
responses to M. tuberculosis,’’
submitted to NIAID, NIH, on July 18,
2019.
Specifically, ORI found that
Respondent knowingly, intentionally, or
recklessly:
• Falsified and fabricated the
numbers for treated and untreated nonhuman primates (NHP) used in the
study. The experimental design in Am
J Respir Crit Care Med 2020 falsely
stated that seven NHPs were treated
with 3HP (i.e., a treatment regimen
constituting of twelve once-weekly
doses of 15 mg/kg isoniazid [INH] and
15 mg/kg rifapentine [RPT]) and another
seven NHPs were untreated controls,
when instead a total of eight NHPs were
treated with INH and RPT and six NHPs
were untreated controls.
• Falsified and fabricated the number
of weekly doses of INH and RPT
treatment administered to NHPs in the
study. The experimental design in Am
J Respir Crit Care Med 2020 falsely
stated that seven NHPs were treated
with 3HP, when instead the NHPs were
treated with a variable number of INH
and RPT doses that do not conform to
the 3HP regimen.
• Falsified and fabricated the time
interval between mycobacterium (Mtb)
exposure and the first dose of INH and
RPT treatments that were administered
to NHPs in the study. The experimental
PO 00000
Frm 00041
Fmt 4703

design in Am J Respir Crit Care Med
2020 falsely stated that seven NHPs
were treated with 3HP beginning in
Week 16–18 after Mtb infection, when
instead the treated NHPs received the
first dose of INH and RPT treatment at
different time points.
• Falsified and fabricated the time
interval between the last weekly doses
of INH and IPT treatment and infection
with simian immunodeficiency virus
(SIV). The experimental design in
Figure 3A of Am J Respir Crit Care Med
2020 falsely stated that after treatment
with weekly INH and RPT for three
months, NHPs were rested for one
month before coinfection with SIV,
when instead the treated NHPs were
infected with SIV either on the same
day as the last dose of INH and RPT
treatment or at a different time point.
• Included survival kinetics data from
the falsified 3HP treatment in Figure 1G
of Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2020 as
Figure 5 of R01 AI159898–01 to
demonstrate the efficacy of 3HP
treatment against reactivation of latent
Mtb infection in NHPs post SIV
infection.
• Included bacterial persistence and
burden data from the falsified 3HP
treatment in Figures 2A, 2B, and 2C of
Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2020 as
Figure 6C of R01 AI159898–01 and
Figure 2 of R01 AI147947–01A1 to
represent the efficacy of 3HP treatment
in reducing Mtb burden in NHPs post
SIV infection.
• Included pulmonary pathology data
from the falsified 3HP treatment in
Figures 3A and 3B of Am J Respir Crit
Care Med 2020 as Figures 6A and 6B,
respectively, of R01 AI159898–01 to
represent the efficacy of 3HP treatment
against reactivation of latent Mtb
infected NHPs post SIV infection.
• Included clinical parameters from
the falsified 3HP treatment in Figure 1
of Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2020 as
Figure 1 of R01 AI147947–01A1 to
present clinical correlates of latent Mtb
infection and SIV induced reactivation
under 3HP treatment.
• Included pulmonary pathology data
from the falsified 3HP treatment in
Figure 3 of Am J Respir Crit Care Med
2020 as Figure 3 of R01 AI147947–01A1
to represent efficacy of 3HP treatment in
reducing lung pathology due to
reactivation of latent Mtb infection in
NHPs post SIV infection.
• Included untreated NHP’s lung
tissue immunohistochemistry image
representing CD3-positive T-cell
staining from Figure 4B of Am J Respir
Crit Care Med 2020 as Figure 6A of R01
AI147947–01A1 to represent CD3positive T-cell staining in lung tissue of
3HP treated NHPs.
