Inferior vena cava collapsibility index for predicting hypotension after spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to identify risk factors associated with hypotension in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) under spinal anesthesia.
methodA total of 200 patients (50-75 years of age) who underwent elective TKA under spinal anesthesia between October 2023 and January 2024 were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups (hypotensive and nonhypotensive) depending on the occurrence of postspinal anesthesia hypotension (PSAH). Patient characteristics (age, sex, body mass index, and medical history), blood pressure, heart rate, and ultrasound data before anesthesia were documented. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine risk factors for hypotension after spinal anesthesia. Furthermore, a nomogram was constructed according to independent predictive factors. The area under the curve (AUC) and calibration curves were employed to assess the performance of the nomogram.
resultsIn total, 175 patients were analyzed and 79 (45.1%) developed PSAH. Logistic regression analysis revealed that variability of the inferior vena cava (odds ratio, OR, 1.147; 95% confidence interval, CI: 1.090-1.207; p < 0.001) and systolic arterial blood pressure (SABP, OR 1.078; 95% CI: 1.043-1.115; p < 0.001) were independent risk factors for PSAH. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the AUC of the inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) and SABP alone were 0.806 and 0.701, respectively, while the AUC of both combined was 0.841. Specifically, an IVCCI of > 37.5% and systolic arterial blood pressure of > 157 mm Hg were considered threshold values. Furthermore, we found that the combination had a better predictive value with higher AUC value, sensitivity, and specificity than the index alone. The nomogram model and calibration curves demonstrated the satisfactory predictive performance of the model.
conclusionElevated preoperative systolic arterial blood pressure and a higher IVCCI were identified as independent risk factors for hypotension in patients receiving spinal anesthesia, which may help guide personalized treatment.
