Improving Access To Ophthalmic Care For Medicaid Patients In Tennessee, Rupert Congmon Apr 2025

Improving Access To Ophthalmic Care For Medicaid Patients In Tennessee, Rupert Congmon

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

Prior AAO data has determined that 93.8% of Tennesseans live as close or closer to an ophthalmologist than to their nearest Walmart. This study intends to analyze access to care for patients in Tennessee’s Medicaid program (TennCare). TennCare comprises four different health plans administered by three different Managed Care Organizations (MCOs): UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, Wellpoint (formerly Amerigroup), BlueCare, and TennCare Select, the latter two being administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield. In the vulnerable population receiving TennCare coverage, there are concerns about care across various specialties. This project aims to quantify ophthalmologist access for TennCare patients. Tennessee ophthalmology practices were …


Neuroplasticity Of Sympathetic And Serotonergic Pathways To Improve The Recovery Of Cardiovascular Activity After Spinal Cord Injury, Aubreigh Morgan Apr 2025

Neuroplasticity Of Sympathetic And Serotonergic Pathways To Improve The Recovery Of Cardiovascular Activity After Spinal Cord Injury, Aubreigh Morgan

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

Spinal cord injuries (SCI) can severely impair bodily function, making early intervention crucial for recovery and preventing further damage. Injuries at or above the sixth thoracic (T6) vertebra impair neural cardiovascular regulation, leading to bradycardia, reduced blood flow, and hypotension. This is important because early intervention and participation in physical therapy are critical for recovery of motor function after SCI, and impaired cardiovascular regulation limits participation. Brainstem regions, including the raphe nuclei, contain serotonergic neurons with axons that project to the spinal cord and release serotonin (5-HT), a neurotransmitter essential for regulating heart rate, blood pressure, and motor control. SCI …


Exploring Transitions In Prenatal Maternal Tobacco Use: Evidence From The Prams Data, Chukwubuikem Arize Apr 2025

Exploring Transitions In Prenatal Maternal Tobacco Use: Evidence From The Prams Data, Chukwubuikem Arize

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

Tobacco use remains a leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality, with smoking during pregnancy posing significant risks to the mother, fetus, and child. Limited research exists on transitions in tobacco use during pregnancy. This study aims to identify factors associated with behavioral shifts, including transitions from exclusive cigarette smoking to dual use or from non-smoking to smoking or e-cigarette use. This study utilized national data from Phase 8 of the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) (2016–2021; N=216,035). Descriptive statistics and multivariable logistic regression analyses examined sociodemographic, health system, and geographic factors influencing transitions in tobacco use behaviors among …


Management Of A Patient In Septic Shock With Necrotizing Fasciitis And Diabetic Ketoacidosis, Avery Conkin Apr 2025

Management Of A Patient In Septic Shock With Necrotizing Fasciitis And Diabetic Ketoacidosis, Avery Conkin

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

Each year over 1.7 million adults in the United States develop sepsis with 350,000 of those patients dying or being discharged to hospice. Sepsis is broken into four tiers: systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis, severe sepsis, or septic shock. These tiers define the severity of the patient’s condition. This case report details a patient presenting to the emergency department in septic shock and discusses the management of his condition. A 58 year-old white male presented with altered mental status, bradycardia, hypotension, and leg wounds. On presentation, he appeared gravely ill and his last known well was 2 days prior. On …


Forecasting Lung And Colon Cancer Mortality Trends In Jamaica And The U.S. Using Multivariate Time Series Analysis, Shanice Douglas Apr 2025

Forecasting Lung And Colon Cancer Mortality Trends In Jamaica And The U.S. Using Multivariate Time Series Analysis, Shanice Douglas

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

Lung and colon cancers are among the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with significant variations across different healthcare systems. This study applies multivariate time series modeling and forecasting to analyze lung and colon cancer mortality trends in Jamaica and the United States, examining each cancer type separately within each country and comparing trends between the two regions. The research employs Vector Autoregressive Moving Average (VARMA) models to assess the interdependence between lung and colon cancer mortality from 1960 to 2014 within Jamaica and the U.S. Multivariate forecasting will be performed separately for both countries to evaluate country-specific trends for …


Adoption Communicative Openness, Hannah Araba Baidoo Apr 2025

Adoption Communicative Openness, Hannah Araba Baidoo

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

Adoption communicative openness refers to dialogue about adoption related issues between adoptive parents and their adopted child. It is through this form of communication that adoptive parents provide adoptees with information about their birth family, answer the adoptee’s questions, and explore other adoption related issues, and as a result aids in the psychological well-being of adoptees as they age. While it is important and beneficial for adoptees’ development, existing research has demonstrated the importance of adoption communicative openness (ACO) from the perspective of the parent in the interest of the adopted child without inquiring from the perspective of the adoptive …
