The role of inflammatory parameters in the prediction of postoperative delirium in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
Article in Cardiovascular journal of Africa. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectiveIn this study, we aimed to evaluate the association of pre-operative and early postoperative inflammatory parameters with postoperative delirium in patients operated on for coronary artery bypass grafting.
methodsThe data of 1 279 cardiac surgery patients operated on between June 2014 and March 2020 were analysed retrospectively. Among these, 777 (61.2%) patients operated on for isolated coronary artery bypass grafting surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were enrolled. Two groups were formed. The patients who developed postoperative delirium were placed in group 1 (
resultsPre- and early postoperative mean platelet volume, C-reactive protein level, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, platelet- to-lymphocyte ratio and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio were elevated in group 1 (
conclusionsPre- and early postoperative inflammatory parameters were observed to be predictors of postoperative delirium in patients operated on for coronary artery bypass grafting.
