Article in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
As life expectancy and modern surgical and intensive care techniques develop, the number of old patients in surgery is rising. Associated are problems with the indication for surgical intervention and rising incidence of "typical" peri- and postoperative complications such as postoperative delirium. Geriatric assessment serves to identify patients at risk of developing complications, to describe the postoperative course of functional and cognitive abilities, and to adjust therapeutic strategies to the individual needs of these patients. The most important instruments of geriatric assessment are described. Postoperative delirium, the most prevalent complication in surgical geriatric patients, is discussed in detail with regard to risk factors, prevalence, diagnosis, and therapeutic options.
