Risk Factors Associated With Hospital Readmission and Costs for Pouchitis.
Article in Crohn's & colitis 360, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Pouchitis is the most common long-term complication in patients with restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis. This study aimed to identify readmission rates for pouchitis and risk factors associated with readmissions in an extensive national database. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis using the National Readmission Database to determine if patient demographics and clinical characteristics were predictors of hospital readmission within 30 days for adult patients (age >18 years) discharged with a principal diagnosis of pouchitis (ICD-9 code-569.71) from January 2013 to December 2013. Both univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to assess factors associated with 30-day readmission. Results: A total of 1538 patients with pouchitis who were discharged alive were identified. 10.2% [95% confidence interval: 7.6, 12.7] of these were readmitted within 30 days of discharge. The average days to readmission were 18.6 ± 1.01. Multivariable analysis of risk factors associated with readmission showed older age as a protective factor for readmission [odds ratio (OR) = 0.88 (0.81, 0.96); Conclusions: Readmissions in pouchitis patients are frequent. Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, ileus, permanent ileostomy, and postoperative wound infection is associated with increased length of stay in readmissions.
