Intraoperative Hypotension and Major Adverse Cardiac Events Among Older Adult Patients Undergoing Noncardiac Surgery: Retrospective Cohort Study.

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
Background: Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) is an important risk factor for major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. However, the IOH threshold in older adult patients remains controversial. Objective: This study aimed to explore an appropriate IOH threshold in older adult patients to decrease the risk of MACE. Methods: This study involved older adult patients undergoing noncardiac surgery (age ≥65 y) from January 2012 to August 2019 in the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital (PLAGH; 35,262 patients) and Shanghai Changhai Hospital from January 2024 to December 2024 (13,418 patients). Univariate moving-average plots and multivariate restricted cubic splines were used to determine the IOH thresholds associated with an increased risk of MACE. The relationship between the IOH threshold and MACE was assessed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses by 3 different hypotension exposure forms (duration, area, and time-weighted average mean arterial pressure [MAP]). Results: Out of 35,262 patients, 874 developed MACE in PLAGH, and 296 of 13,418 patients developed MACE in Changhai Hospital. In PLAGH, MAP below an absolute threshold of 70 mm Hg was associated with MACE. When the IOH absolute threshold was 70 mm Hg, the risk of MACE demonstrated a "dose-increasing" effect with changes in IOH exposure, and the risk of MACE was significantly increased when the duration lasted >15 minutes (odds ratio 1.51, 95% CI 1.22-1.88; P<.001). The stratified analysis showed that in patients younger than 80 years, when intraoperative MAP dropped below 70 mm Hg for more than 15 minutes, the odds ratio was 1.38 (95% CI 0.86-2.28), P<.01. In Changhai hospital, intraoperative MAP <70 mm Hg was also significantly associated with MACE. Furthermore, IOH lasting longer than 15 minutes substantially increased the risk of MACE. Conclusions: For older adult patients undergoing noncardiac surgery, intraoperative MAP should be kept above 70 mm Hg to reduce the risk of postoperative MACE.
