The effect of two different modes of anaesthesia maintenance on postoperative delirium in elderly patient with low preoperative mini-cog score.
Observational study in BMC anesthesiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06597812 (the Effect of Two Different Modes of Anaesthesia Mainantance on Postoperative Delirium in Elderly Patient With Low Preoperative Mini-cog Score), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
The trial behind it

Abstract
backgroundPostoperative delirium is a common distressing symptom experienced following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The study aimed to investigate the influence of a low preoperative Mini-Cog testing score and 2 different anesthesia methods: total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) versus sevoflurane, on postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
methodsA total of 84 patients over 60 years old who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy between March 1and - October 1 2023 were included in the study. Patients with a Mini-Cog score of 0-2 were considered to have low and possibly impaired neurocognitive function. We invastigated the effects of preoperative Mini-Cog score and the two anesthesia methods used on the incidence of postoperative delirium.
resultsThe proportion of patients with low Mini-Cog score in the preoperative period was 17.9%. Sevoflurane and TIVA was used in 41 and 43 patients respectively. The incidence of postoperative delirium in patients with low preoperative Mini-Cog scores was 66.7% at postoperative 0 h and 33.3% at the 1st hours. Postoperative delirium was found to be statistically higher in patients with low Mini-cog scores than in those with negatively-screened for Mini-cog scores (p: 0.01-0.035). In patients using sevoflurane, the incidence of postoperative delirium was 26.8% and 24.4% at the 0 and 1st hours, respectively. This was found to be statistically higher than in patients receiving TIVA (p: 0.036 - 0.010).
conclusionLow Mini-Cog score was an indicator of a higher risk of early postoperative delirium. Sevoflurane is more likely to cause postoperative delirium than TIVA.
