Trajectory and influencing factors of changes in anxiety and depression in elderly patients after lumbar interbody fusion.
Article in World journal of psychiatry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundLumbar interbody fusion (LIF) is the primary treatment for lumbar degenerative diseases. Elderly patients are prone to anxiety and depression after undergoing surgery, which affects their postoperative recovery speed and quality of life. Effective prevention of anxiety and depression in elderly patients has become an urgent problem.
aimTo investigate the trajectory of anxiety and depression levels in elderly patients after LIF, and the influencing factors.
methodsRandom sampling was used to select 239 elderly patients who underwent LIF from January 2020 to December 2024 in Shenzhen Pingle Orthopedic Hospital. General information and surgery-related indices were recorded, and participants completed measures of psychological status, lumbar spine dysfunction, and quality of life. A latent class growth model was used to analyze the post-LIF trajectory of anxiety and depression levels, and unordered multi-categorical logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors.
resultsThree trajectories of change in anxiety level were identified: Increasing anxiety (
conclusionDuring clinical observation, combining factors to predict anxiety and depression in post-LIF elderly patients enables timely intervention, quickens recovery, and enhances quality of life.
