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

This study assessed changes in revolving-door (RD) mental health hospitalizations during the COVID-19 pandemic. A 5-year retrospective hospital chart review was performed, collecting revolving-door hospitalization, sociodemographic, and clinical data. Out of 1036 patients, 5.69% had RD hospitalizations, which accounted for 10.38% of all recorded hospitalizations. Further, a higher number of RD hospitalizations occurred following the pandemic outbreak, which is unlikely to have been a result of the confounding effect of trimester and month of hospitalization. Finally, several sociodemographic and clinical characteristics recurred more frequently in the context of RD hospitalizations, such as being younger, being compulsorily admitted, being an absconding patient, and being referred by a public service. Certain diagnostic categories occurred more frequently among RD hospitalizations, including psychotic, personality, and substance use disorders, as well as intellectual disability. Patients with specific characteristics are more likely to incur in RD hospitalizations, requiring the implementation of supportive treatment plans, especially following the pandemic outbreak.
