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

This study evaluated the association between preoperative cognitive performance and postoperative delirium (POD) using a multicenter prospective cohort, and explored potential causality using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. We analyzed data from 2257 patients aged ≥ 75 years undergoing elective noncardiac and noncranial surgeries across 16 Chinese medical centers. Preoperative cognitive assessment using Mini-Cog revealed 28.4% of patients had cognitive impairment (score ≤ 2). POD occurred in 9.7% of patients, with higher incidence among those with cognitive impairment. Logistic regression demonstrated that cognitive impairment was significantly associated with increased POD risk (odds ratio [OR], 2.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.55-2.74;
