Core Tip

Core Tip: Thoracolumbar fracture is a type of continuous injury of the thoracolumbar bone caused by an external force, which easily damages the peripheral nerve tissue of the body and causes lower limb paralysis. This study adopts a comprehensive approach, evaluating the interplay between psychological states (anxiety and depression) and social factors (stress and support), which provides a nuanced understanding of patient recovery dynamics.
