Delirium, also known as the state of conscious confusion, is a disorder of consciousness (which is the clarity of perceiving the environment), changes in consciousness (including changes in thinking),cognitive disorders, mental illness, and sleep-wake movements. The delirium is a recognized Complications of medical diseases, especially elderly patients, which is related to the mortality rate, and increase in Hospital costs[1,2]. In the palliative care setting, it is reported that the prevalence of delirium on admission is 20%-42%, and as high as 88% in the last few hours or days of life. Delirium is an acute neurocognitive disorder, in which a person's awareness of the surrounding environment is reduced, and attention disorder is its core feature; other mental deficits and perceptual abnormalities may also occur[3]. The collective symptoms of delirium can affect patients due to these characteristics and accompanying changes in psychomotor dysfunction or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Delirium is a symptomatic disorder, and its clinical management is challenging, especially when psychomotor agitation is present. This is especially true in the case of advanced disease and hospice care, where the patient's physical and functional decline can lead to a high degree of vulnerability to delirium (such as infections and adverse drug reactions)[5-6]. When delirium appears, it is associated with a mortality rate of 10% to 75%, although death may be more related to both advanced age and delirium. It is estimated that drug-induced delirium accounts for 22% to 39% of all cases. A study involving elderly hospitalized patients found that in their study population, the most likely cause of delirium was drug use[7-10].Antipsychotics and anti-anxiety agents are FDA-approved therapies for the treatment or prevention of delirium; however, data have revealed their lack of efficacy and the risk of serious side effects[11].

Subgroup analysis is also a commonly used method to identify heterogeneity in a meta-analysis. It investigates the source of heterogeneity from the perspectives of clinical and methodological heterogeneity, and it can incorporate the issue of effect size by referring to homogeneity research. According to the characteristics that may cause heterogeneity, the different types of experimental patients were analyzed in subgroups. In terms of the grouping of patients, the patients were divided into three subgroups: inpatient surgical patients, inpatient medical patients, and inpatient ICU patients. This is shown in the Forest diagram. Both the surgical group and the internal medicine group demonstrated statistical significance (

＜ 0.05), but not the ICU group (

＞ 0.05). Sensitivity analysis was performed on the analysis results. Two effect models (fixed and random) were used. After each study was eliminated one by one, the meta-analysis was performed again. The results found that the surgical group had high heterogeneity, indicating that the source of heterogeneity was not the research literature. Considering that many factors cause delirium, it is not possible to blindly adopt the random effect model to merge the effect size; following exclusion of the article by Stuti[27] in the internal medicine group, the combined effect size of the meta-analysis changed markedly, indicating that the source of heterogeneity in the internal medicine group was due to Stuti J, suggesting that the results of this study were robust.Individual studies were excluded one by one following subgroup analysis, and the sensitivity analysis approach of analyzing the difference between the combined effect size and the total effect size of the remaining studies, also known as impact analysis, was used. Among hospitalized patients in internal medicine, the effect sizes after excluding studies one by one were all within the 95%CI value of the total effect size. Therefore, they had little effect on the total combined effect size and were acceptable. The original meta-analysis results were strengthened to make them more convincing.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria were: (1) Research subjects: clinically hospitalized patients, including patients in surgery, internal medicine, and ICU, the criteria for diagnosing delirium were determined by the CAM= Delirium Confusion Assessment (CAM) criteria[14,15]; (2) Intervention measures: The selected study was an RCT, and there were no significant differences between the experimental group and the control group before the experiment; and (3) Outcome indicators: the main observation indicator was RR(Relative risk).

The overall effect of melatonin in all selected samples showed that it prevented delirium in hospitalized patients. Overall homogeneity (

= 62%,

＜ 0.0003) indicated multiple studies, and there was heterogeneity between the data; therefore, the random-effects model was used for analysis, but subgroup analysis was needed to determine the heterogeneity between multiple sets of data in this meta-analysis,as shown in Table 2 and Figure 4 (Forest map).

Study selection and data extraction

Two researchers who had received systematic evidence-based training performed the literature assessment and data extraction. They independently read, screened, and retrieved relevant content based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Excel entry was used to extract data, the first author Wei You completed the literature screening, and data extraction was completed by author Χiaoyu Fan. After completion, cross-checking was carried out. If there was disagreement, this was resolved by discussion or joint negotiation with the third author Cheng Lei. The relevant data extracted from the included studies were the title, first author, publication time, research country (region), sample size, intervention time, evaluation indicators, and other information.

Statistical analysis

In the groups of patient (surgery, internal medicine, ICU), their

were 75%, 45%, and 36%,respectively, indicating that there was no obvious heterogeneity in internal medicine patients in the subgroups; but if the three subgroups were combined,

was 61% indicating that there was heterogeneity, the intervention effect of melatonin in preventing delirium in different hospitalized patients was inconsistent, and the different types of hospitalized patients were the source of the heterogeneity.Melatonin had a stronger effect in reducing the incidence of delirium in hospitalized medical patients,according to subgroup analysis (

＜ 0.01) as shown in Figure 8. Therefore, Stuti's[27] article was eliminated. Following removal of this study, the heterogeneity test was performed again. The results showed that the remaining 6 documents did not demonstrate heterogeneity (

= 45% ＜ 50%,

= 0.1).After elimination of this study, the fixed-effects model was used to combine the effect size.

RESULTS

Characteristics of the included studies

The flowchart of the research selection process is shown in Figure 1. The literature search retrieved 217 related documents from the Chinese and English databases. The document management software deleted 173 duplicate documents, read the titles and abstracts, and eliminated a total of 63 articles including reviews, systematic reviews, reviews, and animal experiments. Further research included reading the full text, deleting contents with inconsistent research data or inconsistent intervention measures/control measures (90 documents), excluding non-RCT literature (1), and one study with inconsistent outcome indicators was excluded. A total of 18 articles were finally re-analyzed, and the functions of the re-study are shown in Table 1. The basic characteristics of the literature in 18 articles were reviewed[16-33] and published in 2010-2021. The languages of the included literature are English and Chinese, and the study included 16 English articles and 2 Chinese articles. A total of 521 studies were involved. All included studies were divided into the control group and experimental group. The intervention in the experimental group was melatonin, and the intervention in the control group was a placebo (Table 1).

The experimental group was given melatonin to prevent delirium, and the control group was given placebo to prevent delirium.

Learning quality assessment

This study included 18 RCTs, 18 of which were of high quality, 6 of which scored 6 points, 7 of which described the method of random allocation sequence in full, and 18 assessed subjects using a blind approach. All trials provided complete data and no other potential risk of bias. The risk of bias in selective reporting was low. As shown in Figure 2, the standard was "+" and the standard "-" was not met. Figure 3 shows a statistical chart of the proportion of each item in the literature quality evaluation.See Figure 2 and Figure 3 for details.

Meta-analysis results

The exclusion criteria included: reviews, conference papers, systematic reviews, dissertations, animal experiments, repeat publications, unavailable full text or incomplete data extraction, low quality of the literature or obvious research flaws; already suffering from mental illness before admission, patients with abnormalities, severe sensory disturbances, history of depression or delirium, or long-term use of antipsychotic drugs.

Heterogeneity test

The 18 documents in this study were tested for heterogeneity, and it was found that

= 62% ＞ 50%, and the Q test showed

= 0.0003 ＜ 0.1, suggesting that the documents selected in this study were heterogeneous. Further investigation using Rabe diagrams and star diagrams indicated that there was a strong possibility of heterogeneity in the literature with regard to different patient types (Figures 5 and 6).Therefore, heterogeneity testing was required.

Sensitivity analysis

Sensitivity analysis is a method of testing the stability of results obtained under certain assumptions bychanging some important factors that affect the combined results, such as inclusion criteria, literature evaluation, loss to follow-up, and different effect sizes, and then re-analyzing the data. The results before and after changing the conditions were compared, to judge the stability of the meta-analysis conclusions. A sensitivity analysis of the 18 articles found that different types of hospitalized patients had a greater impact on the heterogeneity, and it was necessary to further determine the source of heterogeneity (Figure 7).

Subgroup analysis

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain from the amino acid tryptophan. Synthetic melatonin supplements have been used for various medical conditions, especially sleep-related diseases, and have proved to be successful[12]. Delirium is characterized by a disturbance in the circadian sleep-wake cycle, which leads to the hypothesis that the neurotransmitter melatonin and associated metabolic changes are involved in the pathogenesis of delirium. After admission, especially after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), the metabolism of melatonin is disturbed, all of which are factors that cause delirium. These characteristics suggest an association between melatonin abnormalities and delirium. Although there is still a lack of evidence of causality[2], melatonin regulates the body’s sleep-wake cycle, season, and circadian rhythm[13]. It is a sleep-improving substance. Oral melatonin has been widely used nationally and internationally.Although melatonin depletion is considered to be one of the mechanisms of delirium, there have been some studies on the effect of melatonin on the prevention of delirium; however, there are differences in the various research results. Therefore, this study analyzed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of melatonin interventions to prevent delirium using a meta-analysis, aiming to quantitatively synthesize the results of multiple studies to provide more reliable quantitative results and to target patients in different situations. The best intervention measures to prevent delirium in hospitalized patients are recommended to provide evidence-based data and serve as a basis for the prevention and clinical treatment of delirium in hospitalized patients.

Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 15.0 software were used to conduct a meta-analysis on the extracted data.Subgroup analysis was conducted to analyze the heterogeneity of the included study results, and the corresponding effect model was selected based on the results: if

≥ 0.1 and

＜ 50%, this indicated that the statistical heterogeneity between the studies was acceptable. A fixed-effects model was chosen for data merging; if

＜ 0.1 and

≥ 50%, this indicated that the clinical heterogeneity between studies was large, and the source of heterogeneity was assessed or a random-effects model was chosen for data merging. Two categories of delirium incidence and relative risk (RR) were selected for analysis, and the 95%CI was calculated. When necessary, a sub-analysis of potential heterogeneity factors was performed,as well as an analysis to test the data.

Bias test

To determine whether there was publication bias in this study, a funnel chart was developed. The funnel chart for this study is shown in Figure 9. The funnel chart results of hospitalized patients in internal medicine showed a symmetrical distribution, suggesting that the publication bias of the included literature was small.

DlSCUSSlON

Delirium is characterized by dramatic changes in cognition, which are accompanied by changes in consciousness and in mental state, and these changes will fluctuate over time[34]. The incidence of delirium on admission is 11%-33%. The number of elderly patients in the emergency department,internal medicine, and surgery wards of general hospitals has increased by 6%[35-37].

In palliative care, the clinical management strategy for delirium episodes is to identify and treat correctable precipitating factors if they are consistent with the patient's desired treatment objectives;when the desired care goals are completely focused on comfort or delirium, the clinical management method is to identify and treat correctable precipitating factors. When episodes are difficult to treat, the therapeutic intervention must focus on symptomatic management of painful symptoms, such as perceptual disturbance or agitation. Antipsychotic drugs have been advocated for the first-line pharmacological treatment of painful delirium symptoms[38,39]. However, there is evidence that antipsychotic drugs have no preventive effect on delirium in hospitalized adults, and their therapeutic effects are limited[12,40,41]; in a recent trial of palliative care patients, antipsychotic drugs were less effective than placebo. Exacerbation of mild to moderate delirium can occur[42]. The proposed overall management approach is shifting to larger preventive measures, especially non-pharmacological interventions, and minimizing the use of antipsychotic drugs[43]. Multi-component non-pharmacological interventions,including maintenance of sleep hygiene, have significant effects in preventing delirium in the elderly[44,45], but in studies of palliative care populations, similar interventions plus suppressive therapy have not been effective in preventing delirium. Sleep-wake cycle disorder is not the core diagnostic criterion for the diagnosis of delirium, but it is reported that the prevalence of delirium in cancer patients is between 75% and 100%[46,47]. Although the pathophysiology of delirium is complex and not fully understood,melatonin disorders and related sleep-wake cycle disturbances are thought to be contributing factors to delirium. This is consistent with the initiation and maintenance of sleep; it plays an important role in the regulation and synchronization of the sleep-wake cycle and circadian rhythm[48]. According to reports,melatonin circadian rhythm disorders are found in postoperative patients and critically ill patients,especially in sepsis patients[49-51]. Melatonin disorders have therefore been confirmed in the majority of clinical patients with the highest risk of delirium, and this is the main hypothetical basis for the exogenous use of melatonin to prevent delirium. Postoperative delirium is closely related to postoperative cognitive dysfunction. In addition, postoperative delirium is considered to be a predictor of postoperative cognitive decline[52].

Although there is increasing attention on the effects of melatonin and melatonin receptor agonists in promoting sleep and preventing delirium in critically ill patients and other high-risk populations[53],the heterogeneity of melatonin supplementation to prevent delirium has ruled out broad concluding recommendations[54].

A total of 18 studies and 2137 patients were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The results of the study suggest that melatonin has a more significant effect in preventing delirium in hospitalized patients (

＜ 0.01), but no outstanding advantages have been observed in surgery and ICU patients, especially in surgical patients, although the effect was significant (

＜ 0.01). However, the heterogeneity in each study was strong. Melatonin cannot yet be considered effective in preventing delirium in surgical (post-surgery) patients; in ICU patients, the effectiveness of melatonin in preventing delirium in patients was not significant (

＞ 0.01), and there are currently few RCT-based studies on the effect of melatonin in the prevention of delirium in ICU patients. Multi-center, large-sample randomized controlled experimental data are still required to support these findings. Melatonin can be used to prevent delirium in hospitalized patients. However, it is unknown whether it is worthy of clinical recommendation, and the results of this study should be treated with caution.

This systematic study only retrieved publically available Chinese and English publications, and there are limitations in the retrieval of other languages and grey literature, which may cause certain publication bias. However, many predisposing factors of delirium were taken into account (for example,higher age, cognitive impairment, and dementia) and predisposing factors (for example, infections,drugs, and electrolyte disorders). Future studies should consider different subgroups of medical,surgical, and trauma patients, and patients with a higher incidence of delirium, such as the elderly, to evaluate which subgroup benefits most from exogenous melatonin supplementation. Larger RCTs should assess the possible differential melatonin effects in different patient subtypes to determine which subgroups of patients can benefit from melatonin to prevent delirium and which dose and duration of melatonin management are the most effective.

Melatonin may reduce the incidence of delirium in medical patients, but did not significantly reduce the occurrence of delirium in surgical and ICU patients.

Research objectives

We conducted a meta-analysis, mainly for one purpose. It was based on high-quality studies with a large enough sample size to calculate a reliable estimate of the incidence of melatonin in preventing delirium in hospitalized patients, and to evaluate the role of melatonin in reducing the incidence of delirium in different types of patients.

Research methods

Various databases were searched and relevant studies on the incidence of delirium treated with melatonin in hospitalized patients were retrieved. In our meta-analysis, fixed-effects and random-effects models were used to estimate the incidence of delirium in hospitalized patients. Publication and sensitivity bias analysis was used to test the robustness of the data.

Two researchers who had undergone rigorous evidence-based training assessed the quality of the literature. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the bias risk assessment approach provided by the Cochrane Handbook 5.1.0, and discrepancies were addressed through discussion or by third-party researchers. The evaluated items included: (1) The generation of a random allocation plan;(2) Whether to carry out the allocation plan

(3) Whether to blind the subjects and researchers; (4)Whether to blind the evaluators; (5) Incomplete results; (6) Selectively reported research results; and (7)Other sources of bias. The evaluation result of "yes" indicated that the risk of bias was low; the result of"no" indicated that the risk of bias in the study was higher; "unclear" indicated that the study did not mention or did not have sufficient information to evaluate whether bias was present. Publication bias was tested using Egger's Funnel plots.

Research results

A total of 18 studies involving 2137 patients were eligible for this review. Melatonin was shown to be more effective in reducing the incidence of delirium in hospitalized medical patients, and the findings were statistically significant (

＜ 0.01).

Research conclusions

Melatonin can reduce the incidence of delirium in medical patients, but its impact on reducing the incidence of delirium in patients with behavioral disorders and ICU patients is unclear.

除了訊問外，詢問也是收集言詞證據(jù)的主要手段。在刑事訴訟傳統(tǒng)的辦案方式中，詢問證人的方式通常是由辦案人員采取文字記錄的方式形成書面的證人證言，再由被詢問人簽字確認(rèn)。這種方式不能反映詢問時的各種情況，包括詢問的背景環(huán)境、被詢問人的語氣和表情、回答問題的精確措詞等，而且可能存在辦案人員沒有如實記錄的問題。因此，和訊問一樣，監(jiān)察機(jī)關(guān)有必要通過錄音錄像對證人證言進(jìn)行固定。

Research perspectives

Our meta-analysis showed that melatonin can reduce the incidence of delirium in hospitalized medical patients. Unfortunately, limited research has shown that the benefit is not seen in surgical patients or ICU patients. Further study to determine the role of melatonin in reducing the incidence of delirium in surgical and ICU patients is required.
