Factors affecting hospital readmission heart failure patients in Japan: a multicenter retrospective cohort study.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
The purpose of this study was to examine factors influencing readmission to hospital in patients with heart failure. This multicenter, retrospective cohort study analyzed 197 heart failure patients admitted to the research cooperation facilities between January 2017 and November 2017. We defined the readmission group as being readmitted to hospital in ≤ 6 months of discharge and the non-readmission group as > 6 months after discharge. Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed to explore the predictors of readmission. The incidence of readmission was calculated using Kaplan-Meier curves for the extracted factors. Intergroup differences were estimated using the log-rank test. The results of Cox proportional hazards analysis indicated that chronic renal dysfunction (hazard ratio (HR) = 4.729), dementia (HR = 7.105), HFrEF (HR = 8.138), walking without support (HR = 4.031), and walking with a cane (HR = 11.857) significantly contributed to the model. In the survival analyses using the Kaplan-Meier log-rank test, chronic renal dysfunction, dementia, and HFrEF were significant (P < 0.05), but walking without support and walking with a cane after discharge were not significant (P > 0.05). This study suggests that early involvement after discharge is important for lowering the readmission rates in patients with heart failure, even when their walking ability is good.
