Thirty-day readmission rates and associated risk factors after coronary artery bypass grafting.
Article in Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences, 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
objectivesCoronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is among the most frequently performed cardiac surgical procedures. However, it is associated with high readmission rates for a plethora of causes, which can substantially increase healthcare costs. This study aimed to assess the rates and associated risk factors of 30-day readmissions for CABG patients.
methodsWe conducted this retrospective cohort study at King Abdulaziz Medical City. The study targeted adult patients who underwent CABG between January 1, 2016, and January 31, 2019. Data were extracted from the BEST Care system. Frequencies and percentages were generated for categorical variables. Mean and standard deviation were calculated for quantitative variables. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regressions were used to detect readmission risk factors.
resultsAmong 534 adult patients, the overall 30-day readmission rate was 16.1% (n = 86). The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus (
conclusionsOur study showed an estimated 16.1% 30-day readmission rate after CABG. Diabetes mellitus, asthma, hyperlipidemia, and use of medications such as amiodarone, statins, and amlodipine were associated with readmission. Further studies are needed to develop tailored and practical strategies to reduce CABG readmissions and mitigate patient and health care facility burdens.
