Brief Summary

Introduction: With the increase of the elderly population, the number of elderly patients undergoing surgery is increasing, and postoperative delirium is 11-51% depending on the type of surgery. In recent cohort studies have shown that delirium might reduce cognitive function and develop dementia. Since delirium is difficult to treat, the key to treatment is prevention, and about 40% is prevented when prophylactic intervention is applied. However, delirium is difficult to diagnose and difficult to predict, therefore, biomarkers are needed to diagnose and prevention. Exosome and brain efficiency test(electroencephalogram, and pulse wave test) have the potential of simple biomarkers that can diagnose postoperative delirium and predict cognitive decline. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the risk factors affecting delirium in the elderly who have spinal surgery and to search for biomarkers of delirium for early detection and prevention of delirium.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (9)

  • Exosomes in Urine: Differences in Gene Expression

    \- Gene expression and expression comparison in exosomes The gene expression difference is determined using the SAM tool and DEseq2, and the Gene Ontology (GO) Database (www.geneontology.org) and the KEGG database (www.genome.jp/kegg) are used to find the correlation between gene functions. In the case of miRNA, there will be a regulatory function of the coding gene, so for this purpose, an integrative analysis is performed to identify the mRNA-miRNA interaction

    Just before surgery

  • Exosomes in Urine: Differences in Gene Expression

    \- Gene expression and expression comparison in exosomes The gene expression difference is determined using the SAM tool and DEseq2, and the Gene Ontology (GO) Database (www.geneontology.org) and the KEGG database (www.genome.jp/kegg) are used to find the correlation between gene functions. In the case of miRNA, there will be a regulatory function of the coding gene, so for this purpose, an integrative analysis is performed to identify the mRNA-miRNA interaction

    just before end of surgery

  • Exosomes in Urine: Differences in Gene Expression

    \- Gene expression and expression comparison in exosomes The gene expression difference is determined using the SAM tool and DEseq2, and the Gene Ontology (GO) Database (www.geneontology.org) and the KEGG database (www.genome.jp/kegg) are used to find the correlation between gene functions. In the case of miRNA, there will be a regulatory function of the coding gene, so for this purpose, an integrative analysis is performed to identify the mRNA-miRNA interaction

    Post operative day 1 (6 AM)

  • Exosomes in Urine: Differences in Gene Expression

    \- Gene expression and expression comparison in exosomes The gene expression difference is determined using the SAM tool and DEseq2, and the Gene Ontology (GO) Database (www.geneontology.org) and the KEGG database (www.genome.jp/kegg) are used to find the correlation between gene functions. In the case of miRNA, there will be a regulatory function of the coding gene, so for this purpose, an integrative analysis is performed to identify the mRNA-miRNA interaction

    Post operative day 1 (6 PM)

  • Exosomes in Urine: Differences in Gene Expression

    \- Gene expression and expression comparison in exosomes The gene expression difference is determined using the SAM tool and DEseq2, and the Gene Ontology (GO) Database (www.geneontology.org) and the KEGG database (www.genome.jp/kegg) are used to find the correlation between gene functions. In the case of miRNA, there will be a regulatory function of the coding gene, so for this purpose, an integrative analysis is performed to identify the mRNA-miRNA interaction

  • Exosomes in Urine: Differences in Gene Expression

In the case of miRNA, there will be a regulatory function of the coding gene, so for this purpose, an integrative analysis is performed to identify the mRNA-miRNA interaction
