Mental health and substance use disorders at delivery hospitalization and readmissions after delivery discharge.
Article in Drug and alcohol dependence, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundThe objective was to assess mental health and substance use disorders (MSUD) at delivery hospitalization and readmissions after delivery discharge.
methodsThis is a population-based retrospective cohort study of persons who had a delivery hospitalization during January to September in the 2019 Nationwide Readmissions Database. We calculated 90-day readmission rates for MSUD and non-MSUD, overall and stratified by MSUD status at delivery. We used multivariable logistic regressions to assess the associations of MSUD type, patient, clinical, and hospital factors at delivery with 90-day MSUD readmissions.
resultsAn estimated 11.8% of the 2,697,605 weighted delivery hospitalizations recorded MSUD diagnoses. The 90-day MSUD and non-MSUD readmission rates were 0.41% and 2.9% among delivery discharges with MSUD diagnoses, compared to 0.047% and 1.9% among delivery discharges without MSUD diagnoses. In multivariable analysis, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, stimulant-related disorders, depressive disorders, trauma- and stressor-related disorders, alcohol-related disorders, miscellaneous mental and behavioral disorders, and other specified substance-related disorders were significantly associated with increased odds of MSUD readmissions. Three or more co-occurring MSUDs (vs one MSUD), Medicare or Medicaid (vs private) as the primary expected payer, lowest (vs highest) quartile of median household income at residence zip code level, decreasing age, and longer length of stay at delivery were significantly associated with increased odds of MSUD readmissions.
conclusionCompared to persons without MSUD at delivery, those with MSUD had higher MSUD and non-MSUD 90-day readmission rates. Strategies to address MSUD readmissions can include improved postpartum MSUD follow-up management, expanded Medicaid postpartum coverage, and addressing social determinants of health.
