Bleeding disorder increases the risks of complications following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

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
backgroundIt is imperative to determine patients' risk factors prior to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR), so that the physician and patient are both aware of the possible postoperative complications. However, the impact of bleeding disorders on a patient's short-term postoperative outcome has not yet been analyzed.
methodsA national database was queried for patients undergoing ARCR from 2006 to 2018. Two patient cohorts were defined: patients with a bleeding disorder and patients without a bleeding disorder. In this analysis, outcomes including postoperative complications, hospital admission, extended length of stay, and mortality were compared between the two cohorts using bivariate and multivariate analyses.
resultsOf 33,374 patients undergoing ARCR, 32,849 patients (98.4%) did not have a bleeding disorder whereas 525 patients (1.6%) had a bleeding disorder. Following adjustment on multivariate analyses, patients with a bleeding disorder had an increased risk of postoperative transfusion (OR 8.11; p = 0.044), sepsis (OR 11.86; p = 0.003), hospital admission (OR 1.41; p = 0.008), and mortality (OR 8.10; p = 0.019).
conclusionsPatients with documented bleeding disorder have an increased risk of postoperative complications compared to patients without a bleeding disorder. Consequently, it is essential to recognize these risk factors to decrease postoperative complications to optimize patient outcomes and costs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.
