Comparative Study
Superiority of blood over saline resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock: a 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy study.
To study the relation between blood and saline administration, postresuscitation hematocrit (Hct) level, and metabolic recovery after hemorrhagic shock. ⋯ The oxygen-carrying capacity of resuscitation fluid has an important impact on intracellular metabolism and outcome.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
Prospective double-blind randomized trial of laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with division and without division of short gastric vessels.
To determine whether division of the short gastric vessels (SGVs) and full mobilization of the gastric fundus is necessary to reduce the incidence of postoperative dysphagia and other adverse sequelae of laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. ⋯ Division of the SGVs during laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication did not improve any clinical or objective postoperative outcome.
