Long-term mortality of critically ill patients with cancer and delirium who survived to discharge: a retrospective cohort study.

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
purposeDelirium is common in critically ill patients and has been associated with lower short-term survival; however, its association with long-term survival has been scarcely evaluated and few studies have shown divergent results.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients with cancer admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and discharged from hospital from January 2015 to December 2018. We considered delirium present if the Confusion Assessment Method for Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU) result was positive. We assessed the association between delirium during ICU stay and long-term mortality (up to three years after discharge). We also assessed the association between delirium type (hypoactive, hyperactive, and mixed) with long-term mortality.
resultsWe included 3,079 patients. Of these, 430 (14%) were considered delirious at some point during their ICU stay. Delirium was associated with one-year mortality after hospital discharge (hazard ratio [HR], 1.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.36 to 1.83) after adjustment for potential confounders, but not with one to three year-mortality (HR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.61 to 1.39). Hypoactive and mixed delirium were associated with one-year mortality (HR, 1.77; 95% CI, 1.46 to 2.14 and HR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.21 to 2.00, respectively), but none of the delirium motor types was associated with one to three-year mortality.
conclusionsWe observed that delirium during ICU stay was associated with increased one-year mortality, but was not with mortality after one year. This association was observed in hypoactive and mixed delirium types but not with hyperactive delirium.
