A double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial comparing intrathecal bupivacaine with bupivacaine plus morphine to reduce delirium in patients with hip fractures-Salmon-Mind trial study protocol.
Trial report in BJA open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Surgical treatment of proximal femur fractures is complicated by postoperative delirium in about one-third of patients. Pain and opioid consumption are modifiable factors that may influence the incidence of delirium. Objective: The primary objective is to compare the incidence of delirium. The secondary objectives are to compare pain scores, systemic opioid consumption, and (opioid-related) side-effects. The tertiary objective is to test the association between intrathecal morphine and neurofilament light as a marker of neuronal injury. Study design: A double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled intervention study is proposed. Study population: All patients with a proximal femur fracture who are scheduled for surgery under spinal anaesthesia. Intervention: The intervention is the addition of morphine 100 μg to the intrathecal injection for spinal anaesthesia. The intervention group will receive a mixture of bupivacaine 10 mg and morphine 100 μg. The control group will receive bupivacaine 10 mg. Clinical trial registration: EU Clinical Trials Register: EudraCT number 2020-002143-27.
