[Discharge management in German hospitals for cognitively impaired, older people-a scoping review].
Article in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundIn German hospitals approximately 40% of all patients over the age of 65 years are cognitively impaired (MmkB). After discharge from hospital it is particularly important for MmkB that the transition to domestic life is organized as seamlessly and as well-coordinated as possible.
objectiveThe aim of the study was to determine the existing evidence on discharge management (EM) in MmkB and people with dementia (MmD). Furthermore, the study examined the necessity of an intersectoral concept for MmkB. MATERIAL AND
methodsBased on a scoping review a total of 102 publications were identified, of which 6 articles were finally used for the evaluation.
resultsThe article provides an overview of the current care of MmkB in acute care hospitals in Germany. General information on EM in hospitals was given in three of the six publications included. Information on special discharge and care management for MmkB and MmD was contained in five out of six papers. DISCUSSION: The article illustrates significant gaps in the hospital care for older MmkB, in particular at the interface of discharge management and demonstrates the need for new care models. To what extent these new care models can be structurally, procedurally and systemically embedded in the standard care and financed, is an open and unexplored question.
