1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundDelirium is a common and serious syndrome in elderly patients. The hypoactive type of delirium is known to have different characteristics, but further studies are needed to define the specificities of these characteristics. Our study aims at finding specific risk factors, especially estimated blood loss during operations of hyper- and hypoactive delirium in orthopedic elderly patients.

methodsOne hundred and seventy-five elderly patients were evaluated using the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) and the 4

resultsThirty-nine patients (22.3%) were diagnosed with multiple types of delirium, which included 17 hyperactive types (65.9%), 13 hypoactive types (33.3%), and 9 mixed types (23.1%). Although the mean estimated blood loss in patients with either hyper- or hypoactive symptoms was larger than in patients lacking these symptoms, the odds ratio was only significant in patients with hyperactive symptoms. In addition, age, preoperative daily function, and preoperative hyponatremia were found to be risk factors for hyperactive but not hypoactive symptoms.

conclusionPatients with hypoactive symptoms had different risk factors than patients with hyperactive symptoms of delirium. The estimated blood loss, well-known risk factors for delirium, might be risk factors for only hyperactive delirium. The acute precipitating factors seemed to show stronger correlation with the hyperactive type of delirium than with the hypoactive type.
