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

Objective: To study the status quo of the readmission of senile dementia patients in Chengdu, and to analyze the primary diagnosis, the economic burden and the influencing factors of readmission. Methods: Dementia inpatients aged 60 and above in Chengdu were the subjects of this study. The subjects were diagnosed with dementia between 2013 and 2017. Their heath insurance coverage was either the basic medical insurance for urban employees in Chengdu or the basic medical insurance for urban and rural residents of Chengdu. The rank sum test and the chi-square test were conducted to analyze the differences in readmission rate and the economic burden of hospitalization among subjects with different characteristics. Logistic regression was done to analyze the factors affecting readmission. Results: The total number of dementia inpatients over the 5-year period was 27881 patients (78820 admissions). The 30-day readmission rate was 25.14% (7011/27881) and the 5-year readmission rate was 45.79% (12767/27881). The primary diagnoses of 12767 readmitted patients mainly included dementia (28.57%), circulatory system diseases (24.26%), and respiratory system diseases (23.71%). The economic burden of hospitalization was higher for readmitted patients than that of patients who were not readmitted ( Conclusion: Senile dementia patients have a high 30-day readmission rate, and the readmission entails heavy economic burdens on the patients. For the populations covered by medical insurance, the following features are correlated to the occurrence of readmission: advanced age, coverage by the basic medical insurance for urban employees, Alzheimer's dementia, Parkinson's disease dementia, mixed-type dementia, dementia patients without other comorbidities, extended length of stay, and hospitalization at a lower level hospital. However, further research is needed for better understanding of the specific mechanisms so that readmission of senile dementia patients can be reduced and the economic burden of the disease can be minimized.
