1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThis study was carried out to analyze the risk factors of perioperative blood loss during anterior cervical fusion (ACF) and to provide guidance in perioperative blood management for patients undergoing ACF. MATERIAL AND

methodsA retrospective study was conducted on a consecutive series of 219 patients who had undergone anterior cervical corpectomy fusion (ACCF) and anterior cervical discectomy fusion (ACDF) between January 2016 and July 2017. Patients were categorized into a low hidden blood loss (HBL) group or high HBL group. These two groups were compared for demographic distribution and clinical data to investigate the related risk factors of HBL after ACF.

resultsThe results of the comparison between the high and the low HBL groups indicated that age, gender, concurrent medical diseases, prothrombin time (PT), surgical segmentation, operative time, intraoperative bleeding, total drainage, time for extraction of drainage tube, loss of red blood cell volume, preoperative blood volume, perioperative HBL and total perioperative blood loss were statistically significant between the two groups (P < 0.05). Furthermore, logistic multivariate regression analysis of 13 factors with statistical significance in univariate analysis showed that intraoperative hemorrhage (OR = 0.985, P = 0.000) and total drainage (OR = 0.970, P = 0.000) were risk factors for high HBL.

conclusionThe risk factors for HBL after ACF are varied. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that intraoperative blood loss and total drainage were risk factors for high HBL. The authors believe that a reasonable surgical strategy, improved surgical techniques, rational use of hemostatics during surgery, decreased intraoperative blood loss and total drainage can help to reduce HBL.
