    Abstract We aimed to examine the association between opioid use and the development of dementia in patients with chronic non-cancer pain in South Korea. Data were extracted from the National Health Insurance Service database in South Korea. Adult patients diagnosed with musculoskeletal diseases with chronic non-cancer pain between 2010 and 2015 were included in the analysis. Patients who were prescribed opioids regularly and continuously for ≥ 90 days were classified as opioid users. In total, 1,261,682 patients with chronic non-cancer pain were included in the final analysis, of whom 21,800 (1.7%) were opioid users. From January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2020, 35,239 (2.8%) patients with chronic non-cancer pain were newly diagnosed with dementia. In the multivariable model, opioid users showed a 15% higher risk of developing dementia than the control group. Additionally, opioid users showed a 15% and 16% higher risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and unspecified dementia, respectively, than the control group, but did not show any significant differences for vascular dementia. Among adult patients with chronic non-cancer pain, opioid users were at a higher risk of developing dementia than the control group; the risk was significantly higher for Alzheimer's disease but not for vascular dementia in this study. Our results suggest that in patients with CNCP, public health strategies should target opioid users for early dementia detection and intervention.

    Abstract Background: We aimed to investigate the association between short- and long-term opioid use and long-term mortality in Korea.
    Methods: In this population-based retrospective cohort study, data were obtained from the National Health Insurance Service of South Korea. The study included all adult individuals who were prescribed opioids in 2016. The control group comprised adults not prescribed opioids in 2016 selected using a 1:1 stratified random sampling technique. Participants were categorized into three groups: non-user, opioid 1-89 days user (short-term), and opioid ≥ 90 days user (long-term) groups. The primary endpoint in this study was 5-year all-cause mortality, evaluated from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021.
    Results: In total, 4,556,606 adults were included in this study. Of these, 2,070,039 were prescribed opioids at least once. Specifically, 1,592,883 adult individuals were prescribed opioids for 1-89 days, while 477,156 adults were prescribed opioid for ≥ 90 days. In the multivariable Cox regression modelling, the opioid user group had a 28% (hazard ratio [HR], 1.28; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.26-1.29;
    Conclusion: Both short and long-term opioid prescriptions were associated with increased long-term mortality among the Korean adult population.

    Abstract Obesity is a major public health problem worldwide and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However, studies have shown that obesity has sepsis-related mortality benefits. We aimed to determine whether there is an improved sepsis-related survival rate in patients with obesity in South Korea. We included data from 77,810 adults with sepsis between 1 January 2013 and 31 December 2020, extracted from the National Health Insurance Service database in South Korea. The patients underwent standard health examinations within a year before sepsis, and body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) were used to reflect obesity. Lower 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were observed in the overweight and obesity groups after adjusting for confounders, including WC. However, there was no difference in mortality between the patients with severe obesity and those with normal BMI. Underweight was associated with higher 30-day and 1-year mortality. Higher 30-day and 1-year mortality was found in the high and very high WC groups. In conclusion, patients with abdominal obesity and overweight and obesity and with sepsis showed reduced mortality, whereas underweight patients with sepsis showed increased mortality in South Korea.

    Abstract Introduction: We aimed to determine whether regional anesthesia (RA) has any advantages over general anesthesia (GA) in total joint arthroplasty (TJA) in terms of mortality and postoperative complications.
    Methods: This population-based retrospective cohort study included data of adults who underwent total knee or hip arthroplasty under RA or GA between 2016 and 2021 from the National Health Insurance Service of South Korea. RA included spinal or epidural anesthesia or a combination of both. Endpoints were 30-day mortality, 90-day mortality, and postoperative complications. Propensity score (PS) matching was used for statistical analysis.
    Results: We included 517 960 patients (RA, n=380 698; GA, n=137 262) who underwent TJA. After PS matching, 186 590 patients (93 295 in each group) were included in the final analysis. In the logistic regression analyses using the PS-matched cohort, the RA group compared with the GA group showed 31% (OR: 0.69; 95% CI, 0.60 to 0.80; p<0.001) and 22% (OR: 0.78; 95% CI, 0.72 to 0.85; p<0.001) lower 30-day and 90-day mortality rates, respectively. However, the total postoperative complication rate did not differ significantly between the two groups (p=0.105).
    Conclusion: RA compared with GA was associated with improved 30-day and 90-day survival outcomes in patients who underwent TJA. However, the postoperative complication rate did not differ significantly. Therefore, our results should be interpreted with caution, and more well-designed future studies are needed to clarify the most appropriate type of anesthesia for TJA.

    Abstract Introduction: Socioeconomic status affects the treatment of patients with low back pain and/or neck pain. We examined the relationship between socioeconomic status (occupation and household income level) and treatments such as chronic opioid use and interventional procedures among these patients.
    Methods: Data from the National Health Insurance Service database in South Korea were used in this population-based cross-sectional study. Approximately 2.5% of adult patients diagnosed with low back pain and/or neck pain between 2010 and 2019 were selected using a stratified random sampling technique and included in the analysis.
    Results: We analyzed the data of 5,861,007 patients with low back pain and/or neck pain in total. Among them, 4.9% were chronic opioid users and 17.7% underwent interventional procedures. Healthcare workers and unemployed individuals had 18% lower and 6% higher likelihood of chronic opioid use compared with office workers, respectively. Those with a very low household income had 18% higher likelihood of chronic opioid use than those with a poor household income. Other workers and unemployed individuals had 4% and 8% higher likelihood of undergoing interventional procedures than office workers, respectively. Healthcare workers had 5% lower likelihood of undergoing interventional procedures than office workers. Patients with middle, high, and very poor household incomes had a higher likelihood of undergoing interventional procedures, while those in the very high household income group had a lower likelihood of undergoing interventional procedures than those with poor household incomes.
    Conclusions: Socioeconomic status factors are associated with treatment in patients with low back pain and/or neck pain.

    Abstract Background: The economic burden for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) survivors is a critical issue. We investigated the total healthcare costs for one year following ECMO support and its association with three-year all-cause mortality.
    Methods: This population-based cohort study used data from the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) in South Korea. Adult ECMO survivors (age ≥18 years who were alive ≥365 days following ECMO support) from January 1, 2005, to December 31, 2018, were included. The total healthcare costs for one year included all the expenses for hospital and outpatient clinic visits after discharge.
    Results: In total, 6,044 patients were included in the final analysis comprising 3,566 (59.0%) in the cardiac indication group, 658 (10.9%) in the respiratory indication group, and 1,820 (30.1%) in the "other" group. The median total healthcare cost was United States Dollars (USD) 46,308.0 [interquartile range (IQR): 25,727.0-86,924.8]. The median ECMO support and hospital stay durations were three (IQR: 1-7) days and 25 (IQR: 15-31) days. In the multivariable Cox regression model, a USD 1,000 increase in the total healthcare cost was associated with an increase in the three-year all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 1.01; 95% CI: 1.00-1.01; P=0.015).
    Conclusions: After one year, ECMO survivors accrued USD 46,308 in healthcare costs in South Korea. An increase in the total healthcare cost was associated with a higher risk of three-year all-cause mortality among ECMO survivors.

    Abstract Purpose: We aimed to examine whether preoperative lifestyle factors are associated with mortality after cancer surgery.
    Methods: This study used data from the National Health Insurance Service database in South Korea. We included all adult patients who underwent major cancer surgery between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2018. Three lifestyle factors were evaluated preoperatively: smoking status, alcohol consumption, and physical activity.
    Results: A total of 48,557 patients who underwent major cancer surgery were included in the final analysis. In the multivariable logistic regression modeling, current smokers showed 1.40-fold higher odds of 90-day mortality after cancer surgery (odds ratio, 1.40; 95% confidence interval, 1.14-1.71; P = 0.001) than never smokers. However, alcohol consumption and physical activity were not associated with 90-day mortality after cancer surgery. In the multivariable Cox regression modeling, current smokers showed 1.25-fold higher odds of 1-year mortality after cancer surgery (hazard ratio, 1.25; 95% confidence interval, 1.13-1.38; P < 0.001) than never smokers. However, alcohol consumption and physical activity were not associated with 1-year mortality after cancer surgery.
    Conclusion: In conclusion, current smoking was associated with worse short- and long-term survival outcomes in South Korea, though preoperative alcohol consumption and physical activity levels were not associated with mortality after cancer surgery.

    Abstract Our objective was to determine whether nutritional status correlates with mortality in sepsis patients. Data from a nationwide registration database were utilized for this population-based cohort study. The study subjects comprised adults who received standard health examinations before being admitted to the hospital for sepsis and were diagnosed with sepsis between 2018 and 2020. Nutrition scores were evaluated using the Nutritional Lifestyle Assessment Tool in South Korea. Overall, 2482 patients with sepsis were included in this study. The 90-day and 1-year mortality rates in patients with sepsis were 26.8% (664/2482) and 34.2% (848/2482), respectively. In the covariate-adjusted multivariable logistic regression model, a 1-point increase in nutrition score was associated with a decrease in 90-day mortality in patients with sepsis (odds ratio [OR]: 0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.97, 0.98;
