Age- and sex-specific predictors of inpatient rehabilitation facility discharge destination for adult patients with traumatic brain injury.
Article in Brain injury, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objective: To determine age- and sex-specific predictors of discharge destination among patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) receiving inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) care.
design: Secondary analysis of Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation data.
methods: Logistic regression of patients (N = 221,961) age ≥18, TBI diagnosis, admitted to IRF between 2002 and 2018. OUTCOME: : Discharge destination (subacute vs. home/community settings).
results: Approximately 16% were discharged to subacute vs. 84% home. Younger versus older adults had lower odds of subacute discharge [OR = 0.72; 95% CI: 0.69, 0.76]. Younger females had lower odds of subacute discharge (vs. home) than older females [OR = 0.68; 95% CI: 0.63, 0.74]; younger males had lower odds of subacute discharge (vs. home) than older males [OR = 0.74; 95% CI: 0.70, 0.78]. Younger females versus younger males had lower odds of subacute discharge (vs. home) [OR = 0.83; 95% CI: 0.79, 0.87]. Older females versus older males had lower odds of subacute discharge (vs. home) [OR = 0.93; 95% CI: 0.90, 0.97]. Predictors of discharge destination for age- and sex-stratified groups varied.
conclusions: Younger (vs. older) and female (vs. male) patients had lower odds of subacute discharge vs. home.
