Persistent Postoperative Delirium Following Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

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
Gallstones are the primary cause of symptomatic gallbladder disease and lead to a significant portion of hospitalizations related to gastrointestinal diseases. The gold standard treatment for gallbladder disease continues to be cholecystectomy, which is commonly done laparoscopically, and improves patients' quality of life. With any surgical intervention there are inherent risks, and in the setting of severe illness, the risk of potential complications increases immensely. Postoperative altered mental status, namely, delirium, may occur in the elderly and a high index of suspicion is required to recognize the clinical signs for swift diagnosis and management. This case involves a 61-year-old male who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and developed persistent delirium during the hospital course. This report aims to explore the multiple risk factors that lead to postoperative delirium and review the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies utilized in managing this patient.
