Two Impactful Heart Failure Trials
I congratulate the organizers of #AHA22 for another wonderful conference.UTSW cardiologist receives NIH Outstanding Investigator Award
Hesham Sadek, M.D., Ph.D., says he will use the seven years of award funds to identify molecular mechanisms through which cardiac work and oxygenation regulate the heart's ability to regenerate.Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-Cell Therapy and Cardiovascular Risks
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a personalized, genetically engineered cellular therapy that has revolutionized the treatment of refractory multiple myeloma and large B-cell lymphoma.Fish Oil Supplements: Truth in Advertising?
Despite multiple randomized trials showing no cardiovascular benefits to fish oil supplements, they are taken by millions of U.S. adults, many of whom believe they are deriving some sort of health benefit.Impact of Deconditioning and Aerobic Reconditioning in POTS
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS, is a disorder that primarily affects young women and can be quite disabling.Assessing the Safety and Efficacy of High-Intensity Exercise Training for Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common, inherited condition defined by abnormal thickening of the heart muscle.Effects of Tirzepatide on Ambulatory Blood Pressure and Heart Rate
Terzepatide is a new GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist that recently received FDA approval for treatment of Type 2 diabetes.Gene Editing Halts Damage in Mice After Heart Attacks in UT Southwestern Study
The figure shows cross-sections of mouse hearts with areas of damage in red. Treatment with virus-expressing CRISPR components reduces cardiac damage following ischemic injury.UTSW Researchers Discover Molecular Switch for Heart Regeneration
During embryonic growth and for a brief time after birth, mammals have a powerful ability to regenerate damaged heart cells. Shortly thereafter, however, this capability fades.UTSW Researchers Use DNA Analysis to Diagnose Subtypes of Heart Disease
The human heart is an intricate, complex organ and, like a car that starts sputtering, its function deteriorates for all sorts of reasons.Safer Imaging Technology for Complex Aortic Repairs Uses Light Instead of X-Rays
A new imaging device at UT Southwestern is making complex aortic repairs safer for patients and operating room staff by dramatically reducing their exposure to radiation.UT Southwestern team wins grand prize in American Heart Association Data Challenge
A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center cardiologist Ambarish Pandey, M.D., was awarded the grand prize in the American Heart Association Heart Failure Data Challenge hosted by the American Heart Association and the Association of Black Cardiologists. The six-month data challenge asked researchers to test the relationships between heart failure and health disparities, social determinants of health, and structural determinants of health.
