INCIDENCE AND ASSOCIATIONS OF UNPLANNED ACUTE CARE UNIT READMISSIONS OF PRIMARY BRAIN TUMOUR PATIENTS DURING REHABILITATION: A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY.

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
Objective: To examine incidence and associations for unplanned Acute Care Unit Readmissions (ACURs) in Asian primary brain tumour patients. Design: A retrospective single-centre cohort study. Patients: A total of 173 Asian primary brain tumour patients undergoing inpatient rehabilitation in a tertiary rehabilitation centre. Methods: Primary outcome was unplanned ACUR. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine associations with patients who had an unplanned ACUR. Results: Altogether, the majority of patients had low-grade (World Health Organization Class I and II) tumours (76.9%), whilst 32 (18.5%) patients had glioblastoma multiforme tumours. Unplanned ACUR occurred in 27 (15.9%) patients, with the 2 most common causes being neurosurgical complications (37.0%) and non-neurosurgical infections (25.9%). Significant risk factors for ACUR patients were a longer acute hospitalization stay (odds ratio = 1.024; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01-1.04; Conclusions: Despite rehabilitation goals of prevention of complications, patients with primary brain tumours undergoing inpatient rehabilitation continue to demonstrate significant unplanned ACUR rates (15.9%) with neurosurgical complications being common. These findings underscore the importance of continued vigilance, access to and coordination of neurosurgical care and management beyond the acute surgical phase, in order to ensure optimal outcomes.
