1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Limited data exist describing how hospital discharge readiness checklists might be incorporated into care. To evaluate how assessing patient readiness for discharge effects discharge outcomes. We assessed hospitalized adults' readiness for discharge daily using a checklist. In the first feedback period, readiness data were given to patients, compared to the second feedback period, where data were given to patients and physicians. In the first feedback period, 163 patients completed 296 checklists, and in the second feedback period, 179 patients completed 371 checklists. In the first feedback period, 889 discharge barriers were identified, and 1154 in the second feedback period (
