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

Aim: Pediatric delirium remains understudied among oncology patients. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of delirium and associated factors among children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in Jordan. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted over 6 months, including 165 pediatric oncology patients aged 1 month to 18 years. Delirium was assessed twice daily using the Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium (CAPD). Demographic and clinical variables were analyzed for associations with delirium. Results: Delirium occurred in 29% of patients. Younger age (<5 years), prolonged PICU stay (>7 days), and higher night-shift acuity scores were significantly associated with delirium ( Conclusion: Delirium was common among critically ill pediatric oncology patients admitted to the PICU. These findings highlight the importance of routine delirium screening using validated tools in this population.
