Association between perioperative rate pressure product and postoperative delirium in geriatric patients with hip fracture.

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
Introduction: Postoperative delirium (POD) is a serious complication of elderly hip fracture patients, leading to deleterious outcomes and substantial healthcare burdens. Early predictors remain a critical imperative. Rate pressure product (RPP), a stress indicator, has not been studied in relation to POD. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between RPP at admission and incidence of POD in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery and to explore whether the effect of RPP on POD is mediated by inflammatory response. Methods: This study was conducted on patients aged ≥65 years who underwent hip fracture surgery under spinal anesthesia. POD was diagnosed using the 3-Minute Diagnostic Interview for CAM-defined Delirium (3D-CAM). A comprehensive dataset including demographics, clinical parameters, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores, and RPP. Preoperative plasma levels of IL-1βand IL-6 were quantified. To mitigate confounding biases, a propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Logistic regression analyses were used to build a model predicting probability of POD. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis assessed the predictive utility of RPP. Mediation analysis was employed to further explore the relationship between RPP and POD. Results: From an initial pool of 468 elderly patients undergone hip fractures, the rigorous screening and matching process culminated in a final analytical cohort of 150 patients. Post-PSM, patients in POD group exhibited higher admission RPP ( Conclusion: Elevated RPP at admission is a risk factor of POD in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery and the effect of RPP at admission on POD may be partially mediated by preoperative plasma IL-6.
