From Original Concept to Compelling Evidence*
"... Valve prosthesis–patient mismatch (VP–PM) was first described in 1978 (1) by Dr. Rahimtoola, who had the foresight of elaborating from case observations a very important concept that has indeed become an accepted part of the clinical aspect of prosthetic heart valve implantation and has undoubtedly ..."

contributed to improving the outcome of patients undergoing heart valve surgery. Nonetheless and See page 1123 for reasons more or less evident, the clinical relevance of this basic and logical concept still remains controversial after 30 years of research. It is thus most appropriate in this context that Drs

The Small-World Phenomenon: An Algorithmic Perspective
- in Proceedings of the 32nd ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing
, 2000
"... Long a matter of folklore, the “small-world phenomenon ” — the principle that we are all linked by short chains of acquaintances — was inaugurated as an area of experimental study in the social sciences through the pioneering work of Stanley Milgram in the 1960’s. This work was among the first to m ..."

But existing models are insufficient

Hypertension is a highly prevalent disorder associationwith significant population-attributable risk for car-diovascular and renal morbidity and mortality. Given the high lifetime risk of hypertension and associated compli-cations, a public health approach to prevention is logical. The DASH-Sodium trial represents a landmark study on nutrition and blood pressure (BP) regulation in a middle-aged popula-tion (4810 years) comprised of overweight-obese (body mass index [BMI] 305 kg/m2), disproportionately minor-ity (60%, mainly African American) volunteers with BP averaging in the high normal range at 13410/ 865 mm Hg.1 The findings from this carefully controlled feeding study, if applied to the general population, have the potential to reduce BP and delay and possibly prevent the development of hypertension and associated complications. Based on a post hoc analysis on the reproducibility of salt sensitivity in the DASH-Sodium trial, Obarzanek and col-
