Sensitivity analysis of primary outcome measures, as identified by study authors

Number of studies Comparison Original effect size*(95% CI) New effect size*(95% CI)
Readmission to hospital 12 CCT vs no CCT −0·14 (−0·41 to 0·14) −0·12 (−0·41 to 0·17)
Readmission to hospital 11 Before vs after CCT 0·80 (0·53 to 1·08) 0·59 (0·34 to 0·84)
Use of community services 3 Before vs after CCT 0·87 (0·42 to 1·33) 1·02 (0·54 to 1·51)
