People with Type 2 diabetes had significantly fewer heart attacks, strokes, heart failures, and deaths from cardiovascular disease when their blood pressure was lower than the current standard goal, a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher and his colleagues found.

A study conducted at Parkland Health and Hospital System by neonatologists from UT Southwestern Medical Center showed that optimizing the use of continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP – the same method used to treat patients with sleep apnea – decreased the need for mechanical ventilation in

Survival rates for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) fell during the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, with Black and Hispanic patients experiencing larger decreases in survival, according to a study by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers published in Resuscitation.

– The STING protein, known for helping cells fight viral infections by generating inflammation, also appears to function as a quality control sensor for organelles that serve as cellular waste disposal systems, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers found. Their study, published in Molecular

Black and Hispanic children with high-risk neuroblastoma experience worse survival outcomes than their white peers, even when treated in frontline clinical trials, according to a study led by a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher.

Dr. Beth Levine, UT Southwestern Professor of Internal Medicine and Microbiology, Director of the Center for Autophagy Research, and holder of the Charles Cameron Sprague Distinguished Chair in Biomedical Science, died Sunday after a battle with breast cancer.

High levels of physical activity may mitigate brain loss in adults and help maintain long-term cognitive health, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center report in a study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology.

Multidrug resistance in cancer can be overcome by combining a drug that blocks a key enzyme with another anticancer drug, according to a study in preclinical models led by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center. The findings, published in Science Advances, could have implications for patients

UT Southwestern researchers have discovered a mechanism that cells use to degrade microRNAs (miRNAs), genetic molecules that regulate the amounts of proteins in cells.

A molecule called glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) rose significantly in the blood of patients who underwent high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), a procedure that is used to treat tremors and causes damage similar to a small stroke, UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists discovered in
