Risk factors for blood transfusion in patients undergoing hysterectomy for stage I endometrial cancer.
Article in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo highlight the risk factors contributing to blood transfusion among patients undergoing surgical intervention for Stage I Endometrial Cancer (EC).
methodUsing the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, a nationally validated database dedicated to improving surgical care, females over the age of 18 who underwent surgery for EC stage I between the years 2016-2022 were queried. The cohort was then characterized based on those who received blood transfusion 72 h postoperatively.
results27,183 patients with endometrial cancer who received surgical management were identified. 668 (2.5%) of those patients received blood transfusions. A multivariate logistic model found that a medical factor low preoperative Hct % (aOR 22.4, 95% CI[17.7, 28.3]; p < 0.001) and surgical factors such as 180 min or more of operative time (aOR 3.38, 95% CI[2.77, 4.14]; p < 0.001), larger uteri of 250-500 g (aOR 1.93, 95% CI[1.48, 2.49]; p < 0.001) and ≥ 500 g (aOR 2.35, 95% CI[1.77, 3.12]; p < 0.001), and abdominal approach compared to laparoscopic (aOR 6.36,95% CI[4.95, 8.18]; p < 0.001) were significantly associated with receiving blood transfusion.
conclusionMany significant risk factors were found to be associated with blood transfusions in patients with Stage I endometrial cancer. These findings allow surgeons to proactively prepare adequate measures for patients who may require blood transfusions when they undergo surgery for endometrial cancer.
