A study by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers is the first to demonstrate the long-term efficacy of electrofulguration, a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that treats chronic urinary tract infections (UTIs) among postmenopausal women.

A traditional Chinese medicine whose name means “to open the network of the heart” reduced the risk of heart attacks, deaths, and other major cardiovascular complications for at least a year after a first heart attack, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows.

Wheelchair users are nearly three times more likely to experience hospital readmission following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), according to UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers.

Patients whose brains appear older on scans than their chronological age showed less improvement on sertraline, a first-line drug treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD), researchers from UT Southwestern Medical Center reported.

– Recently diagnosed cancer patients often decide on their own to visit hospital emergency departments (EDs) for symptoms that don’t warrant that type of care, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers report.

A microprotein called adipogenin appears to play a key role in helping fat cells store lipid droplets – a phenomenon that’s pivotal for metabolic health, a study co-led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows.

Researchers have identified factors associated with survival for patients initially diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer who were seen at UT Southwestern Medical Center and its affiliated sites.

UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have identified two distinct populations of cells known as antigen-presenting cancer-associated fibroblasts (apCAFs) that appear to support the survival and growth of malignant tumors. Their findings, reported in Cancer Cell, could one day lead to new therapies for notoriously hard-to-treat cancers, including pancreatic cancer and advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) that has spread throughout the abdomen, known as peritoneal metastasis.

Activating specific neurons in a part of the brain that serves as the body’s master circadian pacemaker caused mice to eat significantly more during a time of day when they would normally be at rest, a UT Southwestern Medical Center study shows.
