Predisposing factors for allogeneic blood transfusion in patients with rheumatoid arthritis undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: To determine the incidence and identify the predisposing factors for allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods: A total of 702 patients with RA who underwent primary unilateral TKA between 2003 and 2022 at a single center, were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were stratified into the ABT and non-ABT groups. Data on patient demographics, laboratory parameters, and disease- and surgery-related parameters were collected from chart reviews and compared between the ABT and non-ABT groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the possible factors associated with postoperative ABT. Results: A total of 173 (24.6%) patients underwent ABT after surgery. Significant risk factors for ABT included the degree of flexion contracture [odds ratio (OR) = 1.018, Conclusion: We identified the significant risk and protective factors for ABT during TKA in patients with RA. This information could be helpful in optimizing perioperative blood management strategies during these surgeries.
