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
purposeWe retrospectively evaluated the postoperative efficacy of an orexin receptor antagonist for patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe invested 108 patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery at our hospital. Patients were categorized as those received orexin receptor antagonist after surgery (S group, n = 64) or without orexin receptor antagonist (N group, n = 44), and the following data were analyzed between both groups.
resultsThe incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) was significantly less in the S group than in the N group (N vs. S = 36.4 vs. 6.3%, p <0.001). Postoperative new atrial fibrillation (POAF) was significantly less in the S group compared with the N group (N vs. S = 36.4% vs. 12.5%, p = 0.003). Intensive care unit stay (N vs. S = 5.0 ± 1.5 vs. 3.8 ± 0.9 days, p <0.001) and hospitalization (N vs. S = 20.5 ± 9.2 vs. 17.1 ± 7.2 days, p = 0.037) were significantly shorter in the S group compared with the N group.
conclusionOrexin receptor antagonists might reduce POD and POAF, and this effect could introduce the shortness of intensive care unit stay and hospitalization. Orexin receptor antagonist could be useful for patients who undergo OPCAB.
