Background: Breast cancer (BC) mortality primarily stems from metastases rather than the primary tumor itself. Perioperative stress, encompassing both surgical and anesthetic factors, profoundly impacts the immune system, leading to alterations in neuroendocrine pathways and immune functions, potentially facilitating tumor progression and metastasis. Understanding the immunomodulatory effects of different anesthesia techniques is crucial for optimizing perioperative care in patients with BC.

This study assessed the predictive value of intraoperative electroencephalography (EEG) patterns for POD in adults.
Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis followed the PRISMA and Cochrane Handbook guidelines.
