Opioid Modulation of Major Neurotransmitter Systems: Acute, Chronic, and Withdrawal Effects
Opioids are widely used but also frequently misused drugs that affect multiple neurotransmitter systems, including dopaminergic, glutamatergic, GABAergic, serotonergic, and cholinergic pathways. Opioid‐induced neuroadaptations depend on the duration of drug exposure, with distinct changes also emerging following drug discontinuation.

ABSTRACT Background Preoperative risk stratification to identify patients who develop acute refractory pain after lumbar spine surgery is a first step to prevent unfavorable outcomes. In this study, we aimed to develop and internally validate a clinically relevant, multidimensional prediction rule for preoperative risk assessment.
