Effects of inflammation and oxidative stress on postoperative delirium in cardiac surgery.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 51 papers, 4 of them syntheses 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
The past decade has witnessed unprecedented medical progress, which has translated into cardiac surgery being increasingly common and safe. However, complications such as postoperative delirium remain a major concern. Although the pathophysiological changes of delirium after cardiac surgery remain poorly understood, it is widely thought that inflammation and oxidative stress may be potential triggers of delirium. The development of delirium following cardiac surgery is associated with perioperative risk factors. Multiple interventions are being explored to prevent and treat delirium. Therefore, research on the potential role of biomarkers in delirium as well as identification of perioperative risk factors and pharmacological interventions are necessary to mitigate the development of delirium.
