Rates, causes, and types of readmissions after total joint arthroplasty.
Article in Turkish journal of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2020. 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
objectivesThe aim of the study was to investigate the causes and rates of readmissions within 90 days after primary and revision knee and hip arthroplasties. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 1,516 patients (290 males, 1,226 females; mean age 64.7±10.5 years; range, 21 to 91 years) who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA), revision THA, and revision TKA between January 2013 and December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. All readmissions within 90 days as of discharge dates of patients were analyzed and were categorized as planned readmissions related to the index admission, unplanned readmissions related to the index admission, planned readmissions unrelated to the index admission and unplanned readmissions unrelated to the index admission.
resultsReadmission rate in the overall of study group was found to be 5.61%. This rate varied depending on the procedure applied, ranging between 2.35 and 6.74%. Unplanned readmissions related to the index admission within 90 days consisted of 60.0% of total readmissions. A total of 82.0% of readmissions within 90 days was due to surgical reasons. Planned readmissions unrelated to the index admission within 90 days were also frequently seen (31.76%). Totally 48.23% of total readmissions within 90 days occurred within the first 30 days. A total of 48.23% of the total readmissions and 58.82% of the readmissions which were unplanned and related to the index admission occurred within the first 30 days.
conclusionAfter knee and hip arthroplasties, readmissions occur due to various reasons. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to identify the readmission type in the evaluation of readmissions which may increase the effectiveness of precautions to be taken.
