ReviewDer Anaesthesist2005
[Pharmacological peculiarities and problems with older patients].
Review in Der Anaesthesist, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
Because of demographic developments, the fraction of the German population over 65 years of age in the year 2025 will have risen to 20% and will continue to rise so that in 2030 this number will have doubled compared to today's numbers. This has a huge impact on the requirements for anaesthesiologic procedures. In addition to the frequent multi-morbidity in this age group, physiologic changes also occur in the elderly which have to be taken into consideration during the entire perioperative management of these patients. Renal, cardiovascular and hepatic function are impaired in many elderly patients. A major concern in addition to cardiovascular and operative complications is the postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), not only because of its implications for the patient but also because of economical consequences. Regional anaesthesia has some benefits when compared to general anaesthesia as it leads to a reduction in thromboembolic and respiratory complications.
