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.

Abstract

backgroundCase-control studies have associated delirium with blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. However, this approach cannot determine whether delirium is attributable to high pre-existing permeability or to perioperative changes. We tested whether perioperative changes in cerebrospinal fluid/plasma albumin ratio (CPAR) and plasma S100B were associated with delirium severity.

methodsParticipants were recruited to two prospective cohort studies of non-intracranial surgery (NCT01980511, NCT03124303, and NCT02926417). Delirium severity was assessed using the Delirium Rating Scale-98. Delirium incidence was diagnosed with the 3D-Confusion Assessment Method (3D-CAM) or CAM-ICU (CAM for the ICU). CSF samples from 25 patients and plasma from 78 patients were analysed for albumin and S100B. We tested associations between change in CPAR (n=11) and S100B (n=61) and delirium, blood loss, CSF interleukin-6 (IL-6), and CSF lactate.

resultsThe perioperative increase in CPAR and S100B correlated with delirium severity (CPAR ρ=0.78, P=0.01; S100B ρ=0.41, P<0.001), delirium incidence (CPAR P=0.012; S100B P<0.001) and CSF IL-6 (CPAR ρ=0.66 P=0.04; S100B ρ=0.75, P=0.025). Linear mixed-effect analysis also showed that decreased levels of S100B predicted recovery from delirium symptoms (P=0.001). Linear regression demonstrated that change in plasma S100B was independently associated with surgical risk, cardiovascular surgery, blood loss, and hypotension. Blood loss also correlated with CPAR (ρ=0.64, P=0.04), S100B (ρ=0.70, P<0.001), CSF lactate (R=0.81, P=0.01), and peak delirium severity (ρ=0.36, P=0.01).

conclusionPostoperative delirium is associated with a breakdown in the BBB. This increased permeability is dynamic and associated with a neuroinflammatory and lactate response. Strategies to mitigate blood loss may protect the BBB.
