- The number of studies examining each risk factor and their association with cardiac complication in THA and TKA, and the number which showed a significant (p ≤ 0.05) positive and negative association. Studies, which studied a given risk factor but did not show any significant association (p > 0.05), are also identified. CHF congestive heart failure, PVD peripheral vascular disease, CAD coronary artery disease, CVD cerebrovascular disease, ASA American Society of Anaesthesiologists. N number of studies examining this risk factor; + studies showing a positive and significant association; − studies showing a negative, significant association; ~ insignificant result
