Analysis of risk factors for delayed bleeding after semi-closed hemorrhoidectomy.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
purposeThe aim of this study was to determine the incidence of delayed post-hemorrhoidectomy bleeding (DPHB) after hemorrhoidectomy using a semi-closed procedure. We also investigated risk factors associated with DPHB.
methodsThis retrospective study enrolled a total of 1645 consecutive patients with symptomatic grade II to IV hemorrhoids who underwent a semi-closed procedure at the Seoul Songdo Hospital between September 2018 and May 2019. All patients underwent a semi-closed procedure with submucosal feeding vessel ligation, a method commonly performed at our institution.
resultsA total of 1645 patients (mean age: 48.67 (±14.38) years, 823 (50.0%) male/822 (50.0%) female) underwent semi-closed hemorrhoidectomy. Critically, 24 (1.5%) patients experienced DPHB. Of these patients, 13 (0.8%) experienced stump bleeding, whereas 11 (0.7%) experienced marginal bleeding. The mean bleeding period was 8.21±4.45 days. Multivariate analysis showed that male sex, drinking history, more than four hemorrhoid piles, and laxative agents were independent risk factors for DPHB. The risk of stump bleeding was significantly associated with male sex (OR=5.55, 95% CI 1.23-25.14, p=0.026), more than four hemorrhoid piles (OR=5.90, 95% CI 1.62-21.53, p=0.007), and laxative usage (OR=3.92, 95% CI 1.31-11.74, p=0.015). Conversely, the risk of marginal bleeding were significantly associated with drinking history (OR=10.48, 95% CI 1.34-82.03, p=0.025) and more than four hemorrhoid piles (OR=4.71, 95% CI 1.24-17.81, p=0.023).
conclusionMale sex, drinking history, more than four hemorrhoid piles, and laxative usage were independent risk factors for DPHB in patients undergoing semi-closed hemorrhoidectomy. The risk factors for stump bleeding included male sex, more than four hemorrhoid piles, and laxative usage. In contrast, the risk factors for marginal bleeding were drinking history and more than four hemorrhoid piles.
