Brady- and Tachyarrhythmias Following Heart Transplantation: Significance and Management Strategies
It was my pleasure to participate in the cardiovascular seminar “Arrhythmias and Heart Failure: Breaking the Vicious Cycle” at #AHA22. Within context of the seminar’s focus on the management of arrhythmias in patients with heart failure, my lecture addressed the clinical significance and management of arrhythmias in patients who have received a heart transplant.Diagnostic Delays in Patients with MI from Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an important but under-recognized cause of acute coronary syndromes, particularly among young women without traditional cardiovascular risk factors.UT Southwestern Appoints New Chief of Cardiology
Dr. de Lemos received his medical degree from Harvard Medical School and completed internal medicine residency training at UT Southwestern, where he served as Chief Resident.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.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.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.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.
