Predictors of Blood Transfusion in Patients Undergoing Cytoreductive Surgeries for Ovarian Malignancy.

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
objectivesThe aims of this study were to describe the baseline estimated blood loss (EBL) in surgery and transfusion rate in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgeries for ovarian malignancy, and identify perioperative variables associated with blood loss and transfusion.
methodsA retrospective cohort study at a single institution was performed that included patients with known or suspected ovarian malignancy undergoing cytoreductive surgery between 2016 and 2021.
resultsAmong 44 patients meeting inclusion criteria, 61% received perioperative blood transfusion. There were significant differences in EBL and preoperative hemoglobin levels between patients who did and did not receive transfusion (EBL 442.6 vs 236.8 mL,
conclusionsPerioperative blood transfusion is common in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery. In this study, EBL and preoperative hemoglobin levels were significantly associated with transfusion receipt. Clinicians should optimize hemoglobin levels and intraoperative blood conservation strategies to reduce the need for transfusion. The results also highlight the importance of considering racial and ethnic differences when developing strategies to reduce transfusion risk.
