Risk factors for postpartum readmission: a prediction model in Iranian pregnant women.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundPostpartum readmissions (PPRs) are an important indicator of maternal postpartum complications and the quality of medical services and are important for reducing medical costs. The present study aimed to investigate the risk factors affecting readmission after delivery in Imam Ali Hospital in Amol, Iran.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study was conducted on the mothers who were readmitted after delivery within 30 days, at Imam Ali Hospital (2019-2023). The demographic and obstetrics characteristics were identified through the registry system. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions with odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs were carried out. To identify the most important variables by machine learning methods, a random forest model was used. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software and R (4.1.3) at a significant level of 0.05.
resultsAmong 13,983 deliveries 164 (1.2%) had readmission after delivery. The most prevalent cause of readmission after delivery was infection (59.7%). The chance of readmission for women who underwent elective cesarean section and women who experienced labor pain onset by induction of labor was twice and 1.5 times greater than that among women who experienced spontaneous labor pain, respectively. Women with pregnancy complications had more than 2 times the chance of readmission. Cesarean section increased the chance of readmission by 2.69 times compared to normal vaginal delivery.
conclusionThe method of labor pain onset, mode of delivery, and complications during pregnancy were the most important factors related to readmission after childbirth.
