Review in Die Anaesthesiologie, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Postoperative delirium during emergence from anesthesia is the most frequent neuropsychiatric complication in the post-anesthesia care unit. In addition to increased medical and especially nursing care efforts, affected patients are threatened with delayed rehabilitation with a longer hospital stay and an increased mortality. It is therefore essential to identify risk factors at an early stage and to implement preventive measures; however, should a postoperative delirium occur in the post-anesthesia care unit despite the use of these preventive measures, it should be detected and treated at an early stage using suitable screening procedures. In this context, working instructions for delirium prophylaxis and standardized test procedures for detection of delirium have been shown to be useful. An additional drug treatment can be indicated when all nonpharmacological options have been exhausted.
