Vertebral Artery Dissection Following Anterior Cervical Decompression and Artificial Disc Replacement.

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
Vertebral artery dissection (VAD) is a rare vascular cause of acute stroke. Although VAD may be classified as spontaneous or traumatic, it is increasingly recognized that trivial mechanical stress typically precipitates this potentially dangerous condition. Herein, we report a rare case of VAD and acute stroke following anterior cervical decompression and artificial disc replacement (ADR). To our knowledge, there have been no other cases of acute vertebrobasilar stroke caused by VAD following anterior cervical decompression and ADR. This case highlights that, although rare, acute vertebrobasilar stroke may occur after the anterior cervical approach.
