Research
Research in treating vascular disease is exploring new areas, such as minimally invasive techniques which are less risky and speed a patient's recovery time. Vascular surgeon Kenneth Ouriel studied methods like these as part of a National Institute of Health grant to study thrombosis; results from this large, multicenter randomized trial of clot busting therapy treatments were published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1998.

“Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together....

—Bettina Arndt (20th century)
