1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Delirium is a common presentation after acute stroke. Post-stroke delirium is related to poor recovery, higher rates of mortality, falls, and longer hospital stays. Delirium can lead to challenging behaviour such as anger, aggression, and confusion. As such, it is important to identify delirium promptly for early management and to reduce the negative impact on post-stroke recovery and outcomes. An important aspect of identifying delirium depends on the use of efficient, easy to use and validated assessment tools. A wide range of tools are available, although it is not known how accurately they can identify post-stroke delirium. This article critically appraises a systematic review which identified delirium screening tools for patients with acute stroke, and summarised their accuracy.
