PUBLICATIONS

• Dr. Arnce in collaboration with KCU Staff & Students has published multiple papers in order to advance our knowledge in healthcare and medicine while also teaching student doctors at KCU the publication process. All his publications can be found below.

  • A Retrospective Investigation: Outcome Comparisons Between Septic Patients With and Without Secondary Diagnosis of Hypothyroidism From a Rural Midwest Hospital can be read online here. 

  • Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and Sepsis: A Retrospective Study of Hospitalization Outcomes from a Rural Hospital in Southwest Missouri can be found online here.

  • Compliance with SEP-1 Guidelines is Associated with Improved Outcomes for Septic Shock but Not for Severe Sepsis is available online here.

  • Sepsis and Acute Kidney Failure Outcomes Investigated in a Rural, Midwestern Population can be read online here.

​

• The open access, peer-reviewed journal "Cells " that covers aspects of cell biology, molecular biology, and biophysics has published our work in a Theme Issue entitled: "Current Trends in Pregnane X Receptor Research" This invited review of Pregnane X Receptor (PXR) and cell signaling pathways was completed by KCU staff, faculty including Dr. Robert Rogers and Dr. Jeff Staudinger, and 11 Student Drs. This amazing opportunity allowed us to expand our scientific knowledge about PXR and give a number of Student Drs. the experience of writing a review and becoming published. Check out the paper either online here or download the PDF here.

• In collaboration with Missouri Southern State University (MSSU) and Nemotech 3D printing, Dr. Jeff Staudinger and Dr. Bradley Creamer led research into creating a 3D-printed mask using a material that is effectively sterilized in an autoclave and can be re-used. Results of their research have the potential to support health care workers needs for PPE in the event of another pandemic and mitigate waste brought about by single-use paper masks. Additionally, the material used in the creation 3D masks has the potential for use in the manufacture of medical supplies and devices that are now single use.
