Patient Blood Management in Transurethral Resection Surgery: Overview and Strategy Analysis from a French Tertiary Hospital.
Observational study in Advances in therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionSince Patient blood management (PBM) suggests a bundle of measures aiming to reduce perioperative blood transfusion because preoperative anemia and blood transfusion are associated with poor postoperative outcomes. There is a lack of data on the effect of PBM in patients undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) or bladder tumor (TURBT). We aimed to assess the bleeding risk in TURP and TURBT procedures and the effect of preoperative anemia on postoperative morbimortality.
methodsA single-center retrospective observational cohort study was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Marseille, France. All patients undergoing TURP or TURBT were included in 2020 and divided into two groups: preoperative anemia (n = 19) and no preoperative anemia (n = 59). We recorded demographic characteristics, preoperative hemoglobin concentration, iron deficiency markers, preoperative initiation of a treatment for anemia, perioperative bleeding, and postoperative outcomes up to 30 days including blood transfusion, hospital readmission, reintervention, infection, and mortality.
resultsBaseline characteristics were comparable between groups. No patient had iron deficiency markers and no prescription of iron was initiated before surgery. No major bleeding was reported during surgery. Postoperative anemia was found in 21 patients, including 16 (76%) in the preoperative anemia group and 5 (24%) in the non-preoperative anemia group. One patient of each group received a blood transfusion after surgery. No significant differences in 30-day outcomes were reported.
conclusionOur study suggests that TURP and TURBT are not associated with a high-risk of postoperative bleeding. In such procedures, adherence PBM strategies do not seem beneficial. Since recent guidelines recommend restricting preoperative testing, our results may help to improve preoperative risk stratification.
