Note: Data are presented as numbers (proportion). The number of 5-aminolevulinic acid-pretreated patients for analysis was 25, because 1 patient did not proceed with the surgery due to a persistent SBP of <80 mmHg.

Abbreviations: SBP <80mmHg, patients who had intraoperative hypotension below 80 mmHg; SBP ≥80mmHg, patients who had intraoperative minimum systolic blood pressure above 80 mmHg; GA, general anesthesia; SA, spinal anesthesia; CKD, chronic kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate <60mL/min/1.73m2); RAS, renin-angiotensin system.
