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

introductionThis study aimed to assess the relationship between preoperative international normalized ratio (INR) levels and major postoperative bleeding events after total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA).

methodsThe American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for TSA from 2011 to 2020. A final cohort of 2405 patients with INR within 2 days of surgery were included. Patients were stratified into four groups: INR ≤ 1.0, 1.0 < INR ≤ 1.25, 1.25< INR ≤ 1.5, and INR > 1.5. The primary outcome was bleeding requiring transfusion within 72 hours, and secondary outcome variables included complication, revision surgery, readmission, and hospital stay duration. Multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses adjusted for relevant comorbidities were done.

resultsOf the 2,405 patients, 48% had INR ≤ 1.0, 44% had INR > 1.0 to 1.25, 7% had INR > 1.25 to 1.5, and 1% had INR > 1.5. In the adjusted model, 1.0 < INR ≤ 1.25 (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.176 to 2.459), 1.25 < INR ≤ 1.5 (OR 2.508, 95% CI 1.454 to 4.325), and INR > 1.5 (OR 3.200, 95% CI 1.233 to 8.302) were associated with higher risks of bleeding compared with INR ≤ 1.0. DISCUSSION: The risks of thromboembolism and bleeding lie along a continuum, with higher preoperative INR levels conferring higher postoperative bleeding risks after TSA. Clinicians should use a patient-centered, multidisciplinary approach to balance competing risks.
