Safety of Early Discharge Among Low-Risk Patients After Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Therapeutics and clinical risk management, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Guidelines for early discharge (ED) strategies after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in low-risk patients still need to be informed. Previous meta-analysis evidence is considered to have limitations, from the level of heterogeneity, which is still relatively high, and the sample size still needed to be more significant. Purpose: This study aims to identify the safety of early discharge after PPCI in low-risk patients. Methods: The literature search used five primary databases: CINAHL, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Taylor and Francis, and one search engine: Google Scholar. Two reviewers independently screened and critically appraised studies using JBI's and Cochrane's Risk of Bias tool. Fixed and random effects model were applied to collect standardized mean differences and risk differences. Statistical analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.3 and JAMOVI version 2.4.8.0. Results: Seven RCTs consisting of 1.780 patients and seven cohort studies consisting of 46.710 patients were included in the quantitative analysis. The results of the RCT analysis showed no significant differences in all-cause readmission (RD -0.01; 95% CI: -0.04 to 0.01; Z=1.20; Conclusion: ED strategies in low-risk patients after PPCI can be completely safe. This is proven by the absence of significant differences in readmission and mortality rates as well as reduce the length of stay.
