Post-discharge evaluation of patients with hospital-acquired pressure injuries: prospective cohort study.
Article in Revista latino-americana de enfermagem, 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
objectiveto evaluate the healing evolution of pressure injuries developed in the hospital setting among adult patients in the post-discharge period, as well as the complications and care provided to these patients.
methodprospective cohort study with patients who developed pressure injuries during hospitalization and were subsequently discharged. Data were collected at 7, 15, 30, and 60 days after hospital discharge.
resultsthe sample included 113 patients, 63 men (55.8%), with a mean age of 64.6 years old (± 15.1). A total of 246 injuries occurred, predominantly in the sacral region (91; 37.0%) and classified as stage 2 (117; 47.6%). Readmission rates ranged from 10.6% to 16.8% over 60 days and 25 deaths (22.1%) occurred. At the last interview, 57 patients participated, of whom 29 (50.9%) remained bedridden or with very limited mobility, while 48 (84.2%) showed improvement or complete healing. Stroke occurred in 22 (19.5%) patients and was an unfavorable factor in the healing process (HR = 0.6; p = 0.021).
conclusionduring the 60 days after discharge, patients experienced unfavorable outcomes, including death, hospital readmission, and non-healing of pressure injuries. Stroke was associated with a slower progression of the healing process.
