National Trends of Interhospital Transfers for Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in the United States.

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: The American Heart Association guidelines recommend transferring patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) to high-volume centers. The purpose of this study was to describe national trends in interhospital transfers (IHTs) for patients with aSAH in the United States. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional analysis of Nationwide Inpatient Sample (2008-2014) in adults hospitalized for aSAH. We performed weighted analyses using the χ Results: Of 146 461 aSAH hospitalizations, 53 289 (36.38%) patients underwent IHT and 93 172 (63.62%) patients did not. There was a significant increase in the prevalence of IHT for aSAH (31.66% in 2008 to 39.91% in 2014; Conclusions: IHT has been steadily increasing for patients with aSAH over the past few years in the United States. IHT has been associated with lower odds of in-hospital mortality, despite higher in-hospital costs, longer length of stay, and unchanged discharge disposition in this patient population. Future studies should explore the different reasons for IHT and the prevalence of neurological deterioration during IHT.
