Background: Amyloid deposition is a potential contributor to postoperativecognitivedysfunction.
2
Patients undergoing major surgery are at risk for postoperativecognitivedysfunction (POCD).
3
Preliminary evidence suggests that postoperativecognitivedysfunction (POCD) is common after lung transplantation.
4
Conclusions: In this study, postoperativecognitivedysfunction was not associated with 6-week cortical amyloid deposition.
5
Background: Studies on postoperativecognitivedysfunction (POCD) have attracted extensive attention and achieved significant progress.
6
Various studies have implicated a potential association between candidate gene polymorphisms and postoperativecognitivedysfunction, yet corroborative studies are lacking.
7
We aimed to identify if preoperative frailty or prefrailty is associated with preoperative and postoperative neurocognitive disorders or postoperativecognitivedysfunction.
8
Understanding the role of pain signaling after surgery may lead to novel interventions for common complications such as delirium and postoperativecognitivedysfunction.
9
We investigated the variants in genes encoding platelet glycoprotein-IIIa and apolipoprotein-E and their relationship with postoperativecognitivedysfunction one year after cardiac surgery.
10
Both plasma Abeta(42) and Abeta(40) levels assessed before the surgery were significantly lower in patients who later had postoperativecognitivedysfunction at 3 months.
11
Postoperativecognitivedysfunction was determined using Z test scores.
12
Methods: The International Study of PostoperativeCognitiveDysfunction recruited patients undergoing noncardiac surgery from 8 countries.
13
Postoperativecognitivedysfunction, confusion, and delirium are common after general anesthesia in the elderly, with symptoms persisting for months or years in some patients.
