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

Background: Delirium is a form of acute brain dysfunction and geriatric patients are particularly vulnerable to this health problem. The aim of the study was to assess the incidence of delirium and determine the risk factors for delirium in patients ≥ 60 years of age hospitalized due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: The study included 405 consecutive patients (mean age: 73.1 ± 8.5, males: 61%) hospitalized due to AMI divided and characterized according to the in-hospital delirium presence. Results: Of 405 patients, 57 (14%, mean age: 80.9 ± 7.3, males: 58%) experienced delirium. Patients with delirium were older (80.9 ± 7.3 Conclusions: The in-hospital course of AMI is complicated by delirium occurrence in 14% of patients ≥ 60 years old. Recognizing and modification of potential, reversible risk factors associated with AMI can reduce the risk of delirium.
