Core Tip
Core Tip: To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal infection by nucleic acid detection and its possible correlation with psychological stress in children. After the study, we concluded that in clinical practice, nucleic acid detection can effectively assist the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal infection in children, and some patients show different degrees of anxiety or other psychological stress reactions when receiving nucleic acid detection. The study underscores the psychological impact of abdominal infections on children, revealing significant associations between perceived stress, anxiety, depression, and coping mechanisms. Promoting adaptive coping strategies like acceptance and distancing could help reduce the emotional distress experienced by these patients.
