Can individualized blood pressure control prevent delirium after surgery in high-risk patients with sleep disorders?
Trial report in BMC anesthesiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPostoperative delirium (POD) has many adverse effects on patients, yet the influence of intraoperative blood pressure on POD remains contentious. Sleep disorders have been proposed as a potential risk factor for POD, although limited prospective studies have been conducted on this topic. This study aimed to explore what target level of intraoperative blood pressure can effectively reduce the incidence of POD in patients with preoperative sleep disorders.
methodsA total of 124 patients scheduled for elective gastrointestinal tumor surgery who exhibited preoperative sleep disturbances were randomized into two groups. The higher blood pressure group (Group H) maintained intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP) at 20% above baseline, whereas the lower blood pressure group (Group L) maintained MAP at 20% below baseline. The primary outcome was the incidence of POD (including the overall incidence within 3 days after surgery and per day).
resultsComplete outcome data were obtained from 114 patients (Group H, n = 57, Group L, n = 57). POD was observed in 7 patients (12.3%) in Group H and 12 patients (21.1%) in Group L. There was no significant difference in the incidence of delirium within 3 days postoperatively between the two groups (P = 0.209), nor in the first, second, or third days after surgery.
conclusionAmong patients with preoperative sleep disturbances, maintaining intraoperative MAP at either 20% above or below baseline does not significantly influence the incidence of postoperative delirium. TRAIL REGISTRATION: IRB: KY-20220826001–02, date: August 26, 2022. ChiCTR: ChiCTR2300071264.
