Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn how exercise-induced irisin protects the brain. It also explores irisin's effect on postoperative delirium (POD) in older adults. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does daily activity link to POD? Does irisin play a mediating role in this process? Researchers will enroll active and inactive adults aged 65 and older. All will have surgery under spinal anesthesia. The researchers will measure irisin levels in spinal fluid. They will track POD and other complications for five days after surgery.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Preoperative physical activity level

Before the surgery, the activity levels of the participants over the past week were assessed using the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE).
