Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines For Postspinal Hypotension In Pregnant Women, Grace Mackey

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

Abstract

Postspinal hypotension (PSH) in pregnant women undergoing a cesarean delivery is a common yet significant problem for the safety of the mother and fetus. The physiological effects of a spinal injection may compromise uteroplacental flow, predisposing the fetus to hypoxia and acidosis. Maternal consequences of prolonged hypotension include unstable hemodynamics, loss of consciousness, and nausea. Historically, healthcare providers have used crystalloid preloads and reactive phenylephrine boluses to correct hypotension. However, recent evidence suggests that these interventions have limited effectiveness. Thorough research led to the development of clinical guidelines that propose providing a 500 mL 6% hydroxyethyl starch preload or …

Implementation Of Evidenced Based Practice Guidelines For Reducing Emergence Delirium In Elderly Patients Undergoing A Total Hip Replacement, Luke D. Kleinfelder

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

A total hip replacement is a common surgery for the elderly population, as it is a successful treatment option for hip fractures and end-stage osteoarthritis, a common condition associated with aging. Recovery from surgery is critical, and any postoperative complication can delay recovery, increase cost, lengthen hospital stay, and lead to a poorer long-term surgical outcome. One of the most common and severe postoperative complications for elderly patients following general anesthesia is emergence delirium. Traditional practice focuses on treating the symptoms of emergence delirium reactively instead of proactively and lacks standardized guidelines. Recent literature found a promising decrease in the …

Proposed Evidence-Based Practice Guidelines For Using Esmolol To Blunt The Sympathetic Stress Response To Laryngoscopy And Intubation, Maya Kurdi

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

Direct laryngoscopy (DL) and endotracheal intubation (ETI) are standard procedures performed during general anesthetic induction, which provoke a sympathetic stress response that can result in intraoperative hemodynamic instability. Traditional agents like lidocaine and fentanyl, commonly used to mitigate the stress response, have limitations and can lead to adverse effects. Recent literature suggests that esmolol, an ultra-short-acting, cardio-selective beta-1 adrenergic receptor antagonist, may be an effective alternative due to its rapid onset, short duration, and minimal side effects. This final scholarly project (FSP) aims to develop evidence-based practice guidelines for using esmolol as an adjunctive induction agent. A systematic literature review …

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Background: Ependymoma (EPN) is the third most common pediatric brain tumor with no targeted therapies available to patients. In supratentorial ependymoma, the most frequent driver alteration is a gene fusion between ZFTA and RELA (denoted ZR), leads to constitutive localization of ZR in the nucleus. Because ZR is not currently druggable, we tested whether ZR expression leads to aberrant protein interactions that could represent therapeutic vulnerabilities.

Methods: Using CRISPR-Cas9 pooled screening, we identified many novel druggable ZR interacting proteins including XPO1, CARM1, SMARCA4, and CDK1. We focused on the nuclear export protein (XPO1), given the ability of most XPO1 inhibitors …

The Effect Of Stress Hormones On Memory Formation And Academic Performance, Emma L. Hooks

Senior Honors Theses

With chronic stress becoming increasingly prevalent in academic settings, researchers have identified significant effects on learning and academic performance. Cortisol, a glucocorticoid hormone, is released following the activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and plays a vital role in the stress response. Although acute increases in cortisol can improve attention and memory, sustained activation of the stress response can impair memory, executive functioning, and academic performance. This thesis draws on neuroscience, psychology, and education research to examine how chronic cortisol exposure affects the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, and how the effects manifest in learning and academic performance, particularly in developmental …

Tractor Workflow: A Scalable Nextflow Framework For Local Ancestry-Aware Genome-Wide Association Studies, Nirav N Shah, Taotao Tan, Jessica Honorato-Mauer, Yi-Sian Lin, Adam X Maihofer, Clement C Zai, Pgc-Ptsd Ancestry Working Group, Marcos Santoro, Caroline M Nievergelt, Elizabeth G Atkinson

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Motivation: The routine exclusion of admixed individuals from traditional genome-wide association studies (GWAS) due to concerns about spurious associations has limited multi-ancestry genetic discovery. Tractor addresses this issue by incorporating local ancestry into association testing, enabling the identification of ancestry-enriched signals and generating ancestry-specific summary statistics. However, adoption has been constrained by the complexity of prerequisite steps, including phasing and local ancestry inference, which require substantial bioinformatics expertise and introduce key analytical decision points.

Results: We developed a scalable, automated Nextflow workflow that integrates phasing, local ancestry inference, and Tractor association testing into a reproducible end-to-end pipeline. To demonstrate its …

Patterns Of Acquisition For /ɹ/ Across Phonetic Contexts, Hailey Nielson

All Graduate Reports and Creative Projects, Fall 2023 to Present

Purpose: 

This study examined longitudinal changes in /ɹ/ production (i.e., the “r” sound) among 14 children aged five to seven at risk for persistent speech sound disorders (SSDs). Children at risk for SSDs show slower or atypical development of /ɹ/, yet little is known about which early patterns predict persistent difficulty, making it difficult for clinicians to prioritize caseloads and provide timely intervention. Using perceptual accuracy ratings across varied /ɹ/ contexts, we modeled growth in /ɹ/ accuracy across different word contexts and evaluated the extent to which early accuracy and changes in /ɹ/production predicted mastery at age seven.

Methods: 

Longitudinal …
