Medical complications and outcomes at an onsite rehabilitation unit for older people.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2013. 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
backgroundThe rehabilitation of older patients in Ireland after an acute medical event occurs at dedicated onsite hospital units or at offsite centres. Information on medical complications and outcomes is inadequate.
aimsEnumeration of medical complications of patients admitted to a dedicated onsite rehabilitation unit for older people, and the extent of co-morbidity in the population with the effects that this had on the evolution of medical complications.
methodsA retrospective analysis of patients admitted to a 58-bed onsite unit over a 1-year period was performed. Information collating co-morbidities, medical complications and functional outcomes was recorded.
resultsMedical complications occurred in almost 95% of patients, where full data were available. Over one-third required intravenous therapy.
conclusionTwenty-four hour medical cover is required for older patients managed at onsite rehabilitation units. Further studies on offsite medical rehabilitation facilities for older patients are required.
