Aims: To explore the effect of postoperative hydrocodone analgesia on inflammatory factors, NSE levels, and cognitive function in elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty from January 2020 to December 2023. Among them, 43 patients with postoperative hydrocodone analgesia were included in an observation group, and 57 patients without postoperative hydrocodone analgesia in a control group. We compared the differences of general clinical data, inflammatory factors (CRP, WBC and PCT), NSE levels, and cognitive function.
Results: After surgery, the VAS scores decreased in both groups compared to before treatment, and the decrease was more significant in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). The NSE, WBC, CRP, and PCT level in the control group were significantly higher than those in the observation group at one day, 3 days, and 7 days after surgery (P < 0.05). Moreover, the MMSE score and the serum S100β protein concentration significantly improved in the observation group at one day, 3 days and 7 days after surgery compared to the control group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Postoperative hydrocodone analgesia can reduce the release of inflammatory factors after elderly hip replacement surgery, alleviating postoperative pain, and reducing the incidence of early postoperative cognitive impairment.

Objectives: To explore pain outcomes in patients prescribed hydrocodone and psychotropic medications with or without CYP2D6 inhibition activity.
Methods: Patients hospitalized for lower/limited upper extremity injuries who were prescribed hydrocodone alongside a psychotropic medication were considered for this study (n=224). A subset of these patients (n=178) was prescribed a psychotropic medication known to inhibit CYP2D6, while the remainder (n=46) were prescribed psychotropic medications without CYP2D6 inhibition activity.

Acute pain management requires balancing analgesia with adverse effects risk. The voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8 plays an important role in pain physiology, and its inhibition was shown to have analgesic effects.

We sought to identify long-term associations of medical complications and healthcare utilization related to polypharmacy following spinal surgery for degenerative lumbar pathology. The IBM MarketScan dataset was used to select patients who underwent spinal surgery for degenerative lumbar pathology with 2-year follow-up. Regression analysis compared two matched cohorts: those with and without polypharmacy.

Objective: To assess risk of persistent opioid use and emergency department (ED) and office/outpatient visits following post-operative prescriptions of common opioids in patients following artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation using a nationwide claims database.
Methods: The TriNetX US Collaborative Network, which encompasses over 115 million patients from 66 healthcare organizations was used to identify males who underwent first-time AUS placement between 2010-2024. Patients with history of opioid dependence/abuse, opioid use within 6 months prior to AUS placement, or surgery within 9 months post-operation were excluded.
