Hospital discharge readiness based on Meleis's transition theory and its associated factors among patients after coronary artery bypass grafting: a cross-sectional 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
Introduction: Readiness for hospital discharge is an ongoing concern for healthcare providers. There is currently limited evidence on patients' readiness for hospital discharge after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) among the Jordanian population. This study aimed to assess the readiness for hospital discharge levels among patients post-CABG surgery and to identify its associated factors in a large cardiovascular center in Jordan using the transition theory by Meleis. Method: A cross-sectional design was used across a total of 203 patients who were selected using a convenience sampling procedure. The Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) was used to collect data on the day of hospital discharge. Statistical analysis, including the chi-square test and multiple linear regression tests, was then used to identify factors associated with readiness for hospital discharge. Results: The total mean readiness scale score was 6.69 (±1.311), indicating a moderate level of discharge readiness. Patients in this study scored highest on physical readiness ( Conclusion: Healthcare providers should seek to assess readiness for discharge among post-CABG patients comprehensively to offer special education and support to those patients at highest risk to enhance their recovery post-CABG surgery.
