Greetings, and welcome to MD News. MD News Lower Hudson/Bronx has gained standing over the years as a reliable, engaging source of news about medical advances in the region and around the globe, and we hope you find this issue an enlightening, enjoyable read. Research indicates there is an above-average need for advanced foot care in the South Bronx community. In response, Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center's Department of Foot Surgery/Wound Management, Orthopaedics has marshaled a multidisciplinary program to comprehensively address patients' podiatric needs. The department's expert providers employ everything from conservative treatments to leading-edge surgical interventions. Our cover feature takes an in-depth look at how this expansive array of services is markedly enhancing area patients' quality of life. In a feature in our special clinical section about cardiol- ogy, we review research from Sweden suggesting that even young men within normal BMI range often face greater risk for heart failure when they reach middle age. We also round up a range of statistics regarding cardiology. Be sure to read up on the latest regional events in health care in our People in the News and Local News sections as well. MD News can help communicate the finer points of your organization's leading-edge technologies and treat- ments to physicians throughout the region.
