Risk factors associated with postoperative intensive care unit delirium in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation following acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThis study was performed to determine the risk factors associated with intensive care unit delirium (ICUD) in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) secondary to acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
methodsData involving 620 patients undergoing IMV secondary to acute exacerbation of COPD from 2009 to 2019 at the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University were retrospectively analysed. The primary endpoint was the risk factors associated with developing ICUD. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify these risk factors.
resultsOf 620 patients, 93 (15.0%) developed ICUD. In the multivariable analysis, risk factors that were significantly associated with ICUD were increased age, male sex, alcoholism with active abstinence, current smoking, stage 3 acute kidney injury (AKI), and an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of III.
conclusionThis study showed that increasing age, male sex, alcoholism with active abstinence, current smoking, stage 3 AKI, and an ASA physical status of III might be associated with a risk of developing ICUD. Even if these risk factors are unaltered, they provide a target population for quality improvement initiatives.
