AUTHORS: Zhang, Lei MD, PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 140(3):p 710-722, March 2025. BACKGROUND: In elderly individuals, excessive lactate levels in the brain may be associated with the development of cognitive impairment after surgery, including delayed neurocognitive recovery (dNCR). Since the origin of this increased lactate is unknown, here we assessed associations between metabolic pathways […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Ahmed, Meah T. BS-BME et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 140(3):p 655-664, March 2025.
