The relationship between mild cognitive impairment and postoperative delirium undergoing total knee arthroplasty: The PNDABLE study by Bin Wang, Chuanlin Mu, Xinhui Tang, Fei Wang, Gaofeng Zhang, Jiahan Wang, Rui Dong, Xu Lin, Yanlin Bi

“…All the participants were assessed using Winblad's criteria for diagnosing MCI on pre-operation and using the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) and the Memorial Delirium Assessment Scale (MDAS) postoperative 1–7 days (or before discharge) for diagnosing POD by an anesthesiologist. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers of POD were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). …”

Correlation between microRNA-320 and postoperative delirium in patients undergoing tibial fracture internal fixation surgery by Bin Wang, Zeng Yin, Yanan Lin, Xiyuan Deng, Fanghao Liu, He Tao, Rui Dong, Xu Lin, Yanlin Bi

“…POD cases and non-POD controls (1:1 matched) were selected by an anesthesiologist using Confusion Assessment Method. Results For Group AS, the escape latency was significantly longer and the ratio of time spent in the target quadrant was significantly reduced, APP and miR-320 were upregulated and IGF-1mRNA was downregulated compared with Group C. …”

Habitual tea consumption and postoperative delirium after total hip/knee arthroplasty in elderly patients: The PNDABLE study by Xu Lin, Xiao‐xuan Li, Rui Dong, Bin Wang, Yan‐lin Bi

“…Habitual tea consumption (odds ratio [OR] = 0.370, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.205–0.670, P = .001) was significantly associated with POD in the logistic analysis, and then after adjusting for age and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status (OR = 0.353, 95% CI: 0.190–0.655, P = .001). …”

Cerebrospinal fluid cholinergic biomarkers are associated with postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing Total hip/knee replacement: a prospective cohort study by Xu Lin, Jiaming Tang, Chen Liu, Xiaoxuan Li, Xipeng Cao, Bin Wang, Rui Dong, Wei Xu, Xinjuan Yu, Mingshan Wang, Yanlin Bi

“…Logistic analysis showed the activities of ChAT, AChE and BuChE in CSF were still related to POD after adjusting for related factors such as sex, age, years of education, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted to determine the Area Under Curve (AUC) of AChE, BuChE and ChAT activity in CSF was 0.679 (P < 0.01), 0.940 (P < 0.01) and 0.819 (P < 0.01) respectively and found that BuChE activity had the most accurate diagnostic value. …”
