Xiao HuSharron DochertySe Hee MinKudos to Se Hee Min, PhD student, her sponsor Sharron Docherty, associate professor, and co-sponsor Xiao Hu, Ann Henshaw Gardiner Distinguished Professor of Nursing, for the submission of her NRSA Fellowship application entitled: "Symptom Cluster of Midlife Menopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome." This proposal requests funds for a 3.5-year period with a start date of April 1, 2021. 

The purpose of this study is to understand the complex symptom experience of midlife menopausal women with Metabolic Syndrome that will inform future development of targeted symptom management interventions. This study aims to: 1) identify symptom clusters for midlife menopausal women with MS and key symptom(s) that exert influence on symptom clusters, 2) explore different symptom experience trajectory over time to classify midlife menopausal women with MS with distinct symptom experience and identify subgroup at high-risk for greater symptom burden using symptom clusters, and 3) examine individual characteristics associated with each symptom cluster subgroup membership.
