ABSTRACT ‐ Overall  The overall goal of the Southern African Regional Center of Non-Communicable Diseases Research Excellence (RCRE) is to build the capacity and collaborations necessary to conduct regionally-relevant research related to non-communicable diseases (NCDs), initially starting with focused research in Botswana and Johannesburg, South Africa (at University of Witwatersrand) involving three priority NCDs. The three priority areas are breast cancer, hypertension, and road-traffic accident trauma. We will also identify research gaps and conduct initial data needs assessments and small pilot data strengthening projects in these areas. These areas of focus were chosen due to the high prevalence of these conditions and their substantial contribution to disease in southern Africa, and the dearth of data related to risk factors, treatment, outcomes, and other clinical/epidemiologic aspects of these conditions. We anticipate that the capacity and collaborations built as a result of this project will lead to NCD-related research of direct

摘要 - 总体 南部非洲地区非传染性疾病中心的总体目标 研究卓越（RCRE）是建立进行行为必要的能力和协作 与非通信疾病（NCD）有关的区域性研究，最初是从 博茨瓦纳和南非约翰内斯堡的重点研究（位于威特沃特斯兰大学） 涉及三个优先级NCD。这三个优先领域是乳腺癌，高血压和 路交通事故创伤。我们还将确定研究差距并进行初始数据需求 评估和小型试点数据加强这些领域的项目。这些重点领域 由于这些条件的高流行及其对 南非的疾病，以及与风险因素，治疗，结局相关的数据死亡， 以及这些条件的其他临床/流行病学方面。我们预计能力和 由于该项目而建立的合作将导致与NCD相关的直接研究
