Clinical, Economical, and Organizational Impact of Chronic Ischemic Cardiovascular Disease in Italy: Evaluation of 2019 Nationwide Hospital Admissions Data.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2025. 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
backgroundChronic ischemic cardiovascular disease (CICD) is a common cardiovascular disease and a frequent cause of hospitalization, with significant differences between men and women. It is also an important comorbidity, affecting hospitalization length and mortality. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the clinical and economic impact of CICD on hospital admissions of non-surgical patients.
methodsTo conduct the study, hospital discharge data (SDO) from each public and private hospital facility regularly sent by the regions to the Ministry of Health were analyzed, focusing on internal medicine, cardiology, and geriatrics departments' 2019 discharged data coming from all Italian hospitals. Data were stratified according to age, gender, hospital charge ward, and costs.
resultsThe typical CICD patient is elderly (average age 80 years) and stays longer (+10.5 days) compared to the average one. They are also typically chronic patients with many comorbidities (respiratory and renal failure, as well as atrial fibrillation) in geriatrics and internal medicine departments, while in the cardiology departments, atrial fibrillation and outcomes of acute cardiovascular events predominate.
conclusionsCICD is a condition that leads to more hospitalizations in internal medicine departments than in cardiology and geriatrics departments and generates an average hospitalization value in line with the average one in internal medicine and geriatrics departments. In cardiology, the average value level is higher than the department average. Gender differences were found in cardiology departments; this data could suggest that the existing guidelines are affected by studies carried out mainly on males which lead to fewer recommendations for interventional procedures on females.
