Are Many Community Hospitals Undertreating Breast Cancer?: Lessons From 24,834 Patients.
Relationships between hospital characteristics and patient outcomes have been described for various diseases. We show increased use of multimodality therapy, including breast-conserving surgery, and improved overall survival for patients with breast cancer treated at teaching hospitals. Quality improvement measures to improve use of chemotherapy and other adjuvant therapies are needed to improve outcomes for community hospital-treated breast cancer.Page: 154DOI: 10.1097/SLA.0b013e31816c4030Authors: Gutierrez, Juan C.

A Systematic Review of Skills Transfer After Surgical Simulation Training.
This article reviews whether skills acquired through simulation training transfer to the operative setting. Study results suggest that trainees who had simulation-based training performed patient-based procedures better than controls, in some but not all measured parameters. More evidence is required to determine the extent to which simulation should become a part of training.Page: 166DOI: 10.1097/SLA.0b013e318176bf24Authors: Sturm, Lana P. BSc (Hons) *; Windsor, John A.

Bias in Surgical Research.
Familiarity with clinical trials' potential biases helps surgeons assess research's credibility and applicability. This article helps surgeons identify and correct for bias when interpreting a trial, and avoid it when designing and conducting a trial. It suggests areas for future exploration to help improve surgical research's internal and external validity.Page: 180DOI: 10.1097/SLA.0b013e318176bf4bAuthors: Paradis, Carmen MD
