OPRM1 gene polymorphism linked to anxiety in cancer-related pain patients: an observational study
Our study indicates that G allele carriers exhibit lower anxiety levels, suggesting a certain correlation between the OPRM1 gene polymorphism and anxiety in cancer pain patients. Furthermore, there is a need to pay increased attention to the psychological health of cancer pain patients with the AA genotype.
