Hospital@Home: improving discharge management and reducing the risk of rehospitalizations in multimorbid Patients - Protocol for a randomized clinical trial.
Article in Trials, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundHospital rehospitalizations within 30 days represent a burden for patients and the healthcare system. Improving the care during the hospital discharge period could decrease the risk of avoidable rehospitalizations.
aimTo describe the methods of our trial aiming to define the efficacy of a tailored transition program in patients with high risk for rehospitalization compared to the usual discharge procedure with the endpoint of 30 day rehospitalization rate.
methodsPragmatic, randomized, open-label, single-center superiority trial with a follow-up of 30 days. Included are adult patients hospitalized in an acute internal medicine department who are planned to be discharged home with a high estimated risk (20% or more) of 30-day rehospitalization. Patients in the intervention group will receive individualized and coordinated discharge management by an interdisciplinary team, compared to usual care in the control group. The multimodal intervention includes individualized pre-discharge, bridging, and post-discharge intervention components. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Before enrolling the first patient, the trial was prospectively registered at the ISRCTN registry (registration date April 4th 2023) under the number ISRCTN11162162 and was approved by the ethical committee (Ethikkommission Nordwest- und Zentralschweiz (EKNZ), ID 2022-01040).
conclusionThis trial aims to assess the efficacy of a well-defined multicomponent discharge intervention to reduce unplanned rehospitalization rates in high-risk patients.
