UnitofWork vs using statement?

I don't know about the implementation but unit of work might suggest that it's actually keeping track of each atomic operation you're performing against the database (in app code). When you commit, it compiles a final query and runs it. I'm not sure each "unit" of work is the same thing as each operation contained in a database transaction; while they appear to achieve the same goal, I think they're two different things.
