Knee replacement surgery is increasingly common among people over 80 sidelined with knee pain, and the procedure isn't as hazardous for them as often assumed.

Varghese conducted the study at Maimonides Medical Center, in...

A new clinical trial found daily consumption of cranberries for one month improved cardiovascular function in healthy men. Those consuming cranberry had a significant improvement in flow-mediated dilation (FMD), which signals improvement of heart and blood vessel function.
