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: Patients in acute medical care units (AMUs) often encounter complex discharge processes due to rapid turnover and acute care demands. The advanced clinical practice nurse-led discharge management and education (ADIEU) program was developed to address these challenges and improve postdischarge outcomes. Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness of the ADIEU program on clinical outcomes and satisfaction among patients and healthcare providers in AMUs. Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 360 patients discharged from the AMU of a tertiary hospital in Republic of Korea and compared them before and after ADIEU program implementation. Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied using age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), and reason for admission as matching variables. After PSM, 139 patients were included in each group. Thirty-day readmissions and unexpected emergency department (ED) visits within 72 h were evaluated after PSM. Patient and healthcare personnel satisfaction were separately assessed. Results: The ADIEU program significantly reduced the risk of 30-day readmission (odds ratio = 0.333). However, no significant reduction in unexpected ED visits within 72 h was observed. Discharge management satisfaction improved among nurses (mean score: 3.09-3.43) and physicians (mean score: 3.67-4.67). Conclusions: The ADIEU program effectively reduced 30-day readmissions and increased satisfaction among healthcare providers and patients. Implications for Nursing Management: The ADIEU program represents a promising model for enhancing discharge management in AMUs despite its minimal impact on short-term ED visits.
