Incidence Rate and Factors Associated with Delirium and Subsyndromal Delirium in Patients with COVID-19 in an Intensive Care Unit.

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
backgroundDelirium subsyndrome (SSD) and delirium (DL) are known complications in the intensive care unit (ICU) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to screen for SSD and DL in individuals with COVID-19 admitted to the ICU and to study the associated factors and clinical outcomes.
methodAn observational, longitudinal study was conducted in the reference ICU for COVID-19. All admitted individuals with COVID-19 were screened for SSD and DL during their ICU stay using the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist (ICDSC). Individuals with SSD and/or DL were compared to those without SSD and/or DL.
resultsNinety-three patients were evaluated, of which 46.7% had SSD and/or DL. The incidence rate was 4.17 cases/100 person-days. Individuals with SSD and/or DL had higher severity of illness on admission to the ICU, as measured by the APACHE II score (median 16 versus 8 points,
conclusionIndividuals with SSD and/or DL had greater disease severity and longer ICU and hospital stays when compared to those without SSD and/or DL. This reinforces the importance of screening for consciousness disorders in the ICU.
