Temporal trends in 30-day and 90-day hospital readmission rates among individuals with inflammatory bowel diseases in Ontario, Canada: a population-based 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
Background: Individuals with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are at increased risk of repeated disease-related hospital admissions, some of which may be preventable with targeted outpatient interventions. We assessed population-level trends in the rates of IBD-specific hospital readmission within 30 and 90 days of index hospitalization among those with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) during a period marked by major changes to IBD management. Methods: We accessed Ontario health administrative datasets to study CD (2002-2017) and UC (2004-2020) patients hospitalized for IBD-specific indications. We compared IBD-specific 30-day and 90-day hospital readmission rates across 4 (UC) and 5 (CD) year time periods using multivariable logistic regression, controlling for age, sex, comorbidities, residential setting, household income, hospital type, and clustering of admissions within patients. Results: Among CD patients, 30-day readmission rates decreased from 9.7% to 7.4%, and 90-day rates decreased from 16.0% to 14.1% between 2002-2007 and 2012-2017 periods. There was a higher likelihood of 30-day readmission during 2002-2007 (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.32; 95% CI, 1.16-1.50) and 2007-2012 (aOR 1.15; 95% CI, 1.01-1.32), and of 90-day readmission during 2002-2007 (aOR 1.14; 95% CI, 1.03-1.26), as compared to 2012-2017. Among UC patients, readmission rates remained stable across time periods. Conclusion: Inflammatory bowel disease-related early rehospitalization risk has declined over time among individuals with CD but not among individuals with UC.
