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

Background: Approximately 30% of older adults admitted to hospital in Sweden are readmitted within three months. Short hospital stays and readmission can lead to further functional decline, as recovery appears to be poor at home after discharge. Aim: To explore healthcare professionals' experiences of transitional care in older adults in order to prevent readmission. Methods: Four focus group interviews were conducted with healthcare professionals ( Results: Healthcare professionals' perceptions were compiled into seven descriptive categories. Three of the categories, i.e., Conclusion: Several interacting structural issues cause readmissions. These include premature discharge from hospital, poor hand-over between healthcare professionals, and a lack of qualified staff in the home-setting. To prevent readmission, medical competence and interprofessional teamwork must be improved in the home setting.
