Re-Admission of COVID-19 Patients Hospitalized with Omicron Variant-A Retrospective Cohort Study.

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
In accordance with previous publications, re-admission rates following hospitalization of patients with COVID-19 is 10%. The aim of the current study was to describe the rates and risk factors of hospital re-admissions two months following discharge from hospitalization during the fifth wave due to the dominant Omicron variant. A retrospective cohort study was performed in Rabin Medical Center, Israel, from November 2021 to February 2022. The primary outcome was re-admissions with any diagnosis; the secondary outcome was mortality within two months of discharge. Overall, 660 patients were hospitalized with a diagnosis of COVID-19. Of the 528 patients discharged from a primary hospitalization, 150 (28%) were re-admitted. A total of 164 patients (25%) died throughout the follow-up period. A multi-variable analysis determined that elevated creatinine was associated with a higher risk of re-admissions. Rates of re-admissions after discharge during the Omicron wave were considerably higher compared to previous waves. A discharge plan for surveillance and treatment following hospitalization is of great importance in the management of pandemics.
