Analysis of risk factors for postoperative bleeding and recurrence after laparoscopic myomectomy in patients with uterine fibroids: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Gland surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: In Asia, the incidence of uterine fibroids (UFs) in women is as high as 1.278%. However, there are few analyses of the prevalence and independent risk factors for bleeding and recurrence after laparoscopic myomectomy (LM). This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with UF and identify the independent risk factors for postoperative bleeding and recurrence after LM, so as to provide a reference basis for improving the quality of life of patients. Methods: Based on our exclusion and inclusion criteria, we retrospectively analyzed a total of 621 patients who developed UF from April 2018 to June 2021. The Results: The rates of postoperative bleeding and recurrence after LM for uterine fibroids were 4.5% and 7.1%, respectively. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that fibroid size [odds ratio (OR) =5.502, P=0.003], maximum fibroid type (OR =0.293, P=0.048), pathological type (OR =3.673, P=0.013), preoperative prothrombin time level (OR =1.340, P=0.003), preoperative hemoglobin level (OR =0.227, P=0.036), surgery time (OR =1.066, P=0.022), intraoperative bleeding (OR =1.145, P=0.007), and postoperative infection (OR =9.540, P=0.010) were independent risk factors for postoperative bleeding; meanwhile, body mass index (BMI) (OR =1.268, P=0.001), age of menarche (OR =0.780, P=0.013), fibroid size (OR =4.519, P=0.000), fibroid number (OR =2.381, P=0.033), maximum fibroid type (OR =0.229, P=0.001), pathological type (OR =2.963, P=0.008), preoperative delivery (OR =3.822, P=0.003), preoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) level (OR =1.162, P=0.005), intraoperative ultrasonography (OR =0.271, P=0.002), postoperative gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist treatment (OR =2.407, P=0.029), and postoperative infection (OR =7.402, P=0.005) were independent risk factors for recurrence. Conclusions: At present, there is still a high probability of postoperative bleeding and recurrence after LM for UF. Clinical work should pay close attention to clinical features. Adequate preoperative examination to improve surgical precision, and strengthen postoperative care and education, thus reducing the probability of postoperative bleeding and recurrence in patients.
