Twelve Tips for Preparing a Surgical Discharge Summary: Enabling a Safe Discharge.
Article in MedEdPublish (2016), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. The surgical discharge summary allows the perioperative care team to summarize a recent hospitalization and relay important information to a variety of invested parties including other healthcare providers, outpatient caregivers, and the surgical patient. The inpatient care team can promote a smooth transition of care and empower outpatient providers and the patient to foster a confident progression through recovery. We describe twelve tips for a streamlined, successful discharge summary geared towards the surgical intern. A successful surgical discharge summary begins with patient and caregiver collaboration, communication and teamwork, and culminates with concise documentation. These tips reflect a review of the current literature and rely on the clinical expertise of an interdisciplinary surgical team. Our aim is to empower surgical educators and trainees to understand the complexity of discharge planning, and to improve the efficiency with which it can be completed and the quality of the discharge process at their training hospitals.
