1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionFew data on the impact of specific interventions against Emergency Rooms 'or Hospitals overcrowding are available in France.

methodsIn the present report, we retrospectively investigated the impact of the implementation of a short-stay observation unit associated with the admitter-rounder model, especially onto the other in-patient internal medicine units in a French University Hospital.

resultsDuring the first 100 days, 242 patients were admitted into the short-stay observation unit. The median length of stay (LOS) was 5 days, but it was lower during the first and third parts with the admitter-rounder model than during the second part without: 4 versus 6 days (p = 0.007). Internal medicine bed-spaced patients accounted for 19.5% of the bed-spaced patients during the study period versus 28.1% during the same period the previous year (p = 0.04). The median LOS increased significantly in two units of internal medicine: 10 versus 8 days (p = 0.005) and 10 versus 8 days (p = 0.01) during the study period versus the same period the previous year, respectively. DISCUSSION: The reduced number of Internal Medicine bed-spaced patients, the reduced LOS of patients in short-stay observation unit when associated with the admitter-rounder model and the increase of LOS among some of the in-patient internal medicine units observed in this study should be evaluated elsewhere.
