Perioperative allogenic blood transfusion increases the incidence of postoperative deep vein thrombosis in total knee and hip arthroplasty.

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.
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
backgroundExcessive blood loss caused by total joint arthroplasty (TJA) often increases the requirement for blood transfusion, which is associated with adverse outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between perioperative transfusion and postoperative DVT in TJA.
methodsThis retrospective study reviewed medical records of 715 patients, who consecutively underwent primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or total hip arthroplasty (THA) at our institution between September 2015 and March 2017. Demographic, clinical and surgical parameters were introduced into the univariate analysis to find risk factors for DVT within postoperative 30 days. In order to identify if allogenic blood transfusion was independently associated with DVT, a multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to adjust for gender, age, body mass index (BMI), diagnosis, and type of surgery.
resultsThe incidence of perioperative allogenic blood transfusion was 12.4% (n = 89). Fifty-seven patients (8.0%) developed DVT after surgery. Univariate analysis demonstrated that there were differences between DVT group and non-DVT group in gender (P = 0.045), age (P < 0.001), BMI (P = 0.026), primary diagnosis (P = 0.001), type of surgery (P < 0.001), and transfusion rates (P = 0.040). After adjustment by using multivariate logistic regression analysis, transfusion appeared to be the independent risk factor for DVT in TJA (P = 0.001; OR = 3.9, 95%CI 1.8-8.4).
conclusionWe found that perioperative allogenic blood transfusion was significantly associated with DVT following TJA. In order to reduce the risk of DVT and other adverse outcomes, methods to decrease transfusion rates should be used in clinical practice.
