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

Post-operative delirium (POD) represents a unique challenge in the care of any surgical patient but is especially challenging in neurosurgical inpatient management due to a host of potentially significant predisposing factors. Patients undergoing stereoencephalography (SEEG) for diagnosis of drug resistant epilepsy are at unique risk due to safety concerns, yet POD has been underdiscussed in this population. Patients should be counseled pre-operatively about their risk and subsequent steps be taken post-operatively. We present two cases of POD status-post SEEG and propose a mechanism by which future post-operative care be coordinated by the physician, patient, and patient's family.
