The Role of Adjuvant Therapy in Duodenal Adenocarcinoma and Intestinal Subtype Ampullary Carcinoma after Curative Resection.
To define the role of adjuvant therapy in duodenal adenocarcinoma (DAC) and intestinal subtype ampullary carcinoma (iAC). ⋯ While adjuvant therapy fails to improve OS in all patients with DAC and iAC in the current study, it improved OS in patients with DAC with perineural invasion and in patients with iAC with T3-T4 tumors, positive lymph nodes, and perineural invasion.

Whole Blood and Blood Component Resuscitation in Trauma: Interaction and Association with Mortality.
To evaluate the interaction between whole blood (WB) and blood component resuscitation in relation to mortality after trauma. ⋯ WB resuscitation, higher WB:TTV ratios, and balanced blood component transfusion in conjunction with WB were associated with lower mortality in patients with trauma presenting in shock requiring at least 4 units of red blood cells and/or WB transfusion within 4 hours of arrival.
