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
backgroundHospital readmissions of users with personality disorders are frequent and represent a high personal and economic cost for health systems. This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with readmission in this population, examining sociodemographic and clinical variables.
methodsA retrospective observational study was conducted, using electronic records. The study was carried out at the Mental Health Hospitalization Unit of the Regional University Hospital of Málaga, covering all admissions between January 1, 2007, and March 31, 2024. Patients with a primary or secondary International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition (ICD-10) personality disorder diagnosis were included. The dependent variable was hospital readmission, analyzed both at 30 days and at 1 year. Mixed logistic regression models were used to identify risk factors.
resultsA total of 2403 admissions of 1072 individuals for 30-day readmission and 2256 admissions of 1029 individuals for 1-year readmission were analyzed; 17.15% of the admissions resulted in readmission at 30 days, and 42.33% at 1 year. The variables significantly associated with early readmission in the multivariate analysis were younger age (odds ratio (OR) = 0.973, p < 0.001), having a history of previous admissions (OR = 1.900, p < 0.001), and voluntary admission (OR = 1.348, p = 0.033). For readmission at 1 year, the significant variables included younger age (OR = 0.973, p < 0.001), history of previous admissions (OR = 1.956, p < 0.001), having another type of personality disorder diagnosis other than emotionally unstable personality disorder (OR = 0.654, p = 0.006), and comorbidity with affective (OR = 1.726, p = 0.025) and anxiety (OR = 1.915, p = 0.034) disorders compared to no comorbidity.
conclusionsThis study identified key risk factors for hospital readmission of individuals with personality disorders, including younger age, previous admissions, voluntary admission, specific personality disorder types, and comorbidity with affective and anxiety disorders. These findings underscore the need for future research to better understand the risk factors for readmission in this population.
