To clarify whether intraoperative hypotension contributes to the development of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. ⋯ This systematic review showed no conclusive association between intraoperative hypotension and the development of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Given the vast methodological differences of the included studies, the role of intraoperative hypotension in the development of postoperative cognitive dysfunction remains uncertain. Future research into the association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative cognitive dysfunction should be conducted in a standardized manner.

Review Meta Analysis
Effect of dexmedetomidine on hemodynamic responses to tracheal intubation: A meta-analysis with meta-regression and trial sequential analysis.
An uncontrolled adrenergic response during tracheal intubation may lead to life-threatening complications. Dexmedetomidine binds to α2-receptors and may attenuate this response. The primary aim of our meta-analysis is to investigate dexmedetomidine efficacy in attenuating sympathetic response to tracheal intubation, compared with placebo or no dexmedetomidine, in terms of heart rate and blood pressure at intubation. ⋯ Patients receiving premedication with dexmedetomidine for tracheal intubation, compared with no dexmedetomidine, have a lower blood pressure and heart rate, however, the risk of bradycardia and hypotension is relevant and its use during daily practice should be cautiously evaluated for each patient.
