Association of postoperative delirium with visual acuity after ophthalmic surgeries under local anesthesia.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2025. 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
purposeTo investigate the incidence rate and risk factors for postoperative delirium (POD) following ophthalmic surgery under local anesthesia. STUDY
designA retrospective study
methodsWe retrospectively investigated the incidence rate of POD in 4658 patients who underwent vitrectomy or glaucoma surgery between January 2009 to March 2023 and analyzed the risk factors with multivariate logistic regression compared to non-delirium patients. Risk indices included age, sex, operation time, preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (pre-BCVA), comorbidity of dementia, and the use of sedative or hypnotic drugs.
resultsPOD developed in 19 out of 4658 patients (0.41%). POD was more prevalent in older patients and those with dementia (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively). However, sex, longer operation time, the use of sedative or hypnotic drugs were not associated with POD. The low pre-BCVA in either operated eye or fellow eye was more likely observed in patients with POD (P = 0.003 and P = 0.001, respectively). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age (odds ratio [OR], 1.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00-1.12; P = 0.04), dementia (OR, 34.95; 95% CI, 12.32-99.15; P < 0.001), pre-BCVA in the operated eye (OR, 2.00; 95% CI, 1.13-3.53; P = 0.02) and pre-BCVA in the fellow eye (OR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.16-2.89; P = 0.01) were significantly associated with developing POD.
conclusionsPOD developed following ophthalmic surgery under local anesthesia. Identified risk factors included older age, comorbid dementia and low pre-BCVA.
