| Core Tip |
Data from 95 older patients with depression who had gastrointestinal tumor surgery, were retrospectively analyzed, and there was an incidence of post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) of 36.84%, seven days post-operatively. Advanced age, high pre-operative Hamilton Depression Rating Scale score, long duration of surgery, intra-operative anticholinergics, and high post-operative interleukin-6 (IL-6) change rate were independent risk factors for POCD. Mechanistically, pre-operative depression exacerbated systemic inflammation (via IL-6) and impaired cholinergic function (via reduced cholinesterase), jointly increasing the risk of POCD, with the two mediating effects accounting for 19.7% and 17.2% of the total effect, respectively. These findings provide a basis for the targeted prevention of POCD. |
