population based cohort study, so cant "prove" cause effect.

gabapentin group was sicker to start.

there were multiple potential limitations - a question arose as to whether the gabapentin group was more likely to be on opioids and whether they were smokers, for example.

but the trend does need to be considered - ie does gabapentin increase risk for respiratory distress.
