Assessment of Long-Term Mild and Major Neurocognitive Disorders 48 Months After Cardiac Surgery.
Article in International journal of geriatric psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectivesTo assess the incidence of both Mild and Major Neurocognitive Disorders (NCD), according to the DSM-5 criteria, after cardiac surgery (off-pump an on-pump procedures) and to propose some risk associated factors.
methodsProspective and sequential study. Patients (n = 70, 65.9 years old, mean age) were evaluated for cognitive function (Neuronorma Battery) and daily life activities (Barthel Index and Bayer-Activities of Daily Living Scale) before surgery and at 1, 6, 12, and 48 months postoperatively. Off-pump (n = 36) and on-pump (n = 34) patients groups were compared. DSM-5 criteria for Mild NCD and Major NCD were applied. Independent associated risk factors were described.
resultsA 40.8% (off-pump) and 39.3% (on-pump) of patients met DSM-5 criteria for Mild NCD 48 months after cardiac surgery and a further 7.1% (on-pump) of them, for Major NCD. Clinical factors were associated with Mild NCD and both clinical and surgical factors, were associated with Major NCD.
conclusionA relevant incidence of long-term Mild NCD and Major NCD has been described 48 months after cardiac surgery, more intense in the on-pump group of patients. Assessment (identifying those with higher risk), prevention and treatment strategies for these patients should be provided. The DSM-5 criteria to classify NCD could be applied to characterize any cognitive decline due to any disease or surgical procedure.
