1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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"Bounce-backs" (movements from a less intensive to a more intensive care setting) soon after hospital discharge are common, but reasons for bouncing-back remain unknown.

objectiveTo examine how the primary diagnosis for first rehospitalization relates to thirty-day bounce-back number and initial discharge destination in acute stroke. POPULATION: Administrative data from 5,250 Medicare beneficiaries > or = 65 years discharged with acute ischemic stroke in 1998-2000 to a rehabilitation center, skilled nursing facility or home with home health care and with at least one thirty day rehospitalization. ANALYSIS: Probability of thirty-day bounce-back was calculated using multivariate models.

resultsInfections and aspiration pneumonitis were the most common reasons for rehospitalization, regardless of initial discharge site.

conclusionsEfforts addressing aspirations and infections, the preventable complications of immobility, will be critical in decreasing acute stroke bounce-backs.
