Development and Validation of a Predictive Model to Evaluate the Risk of Dysphagia Following Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion.
Article in Global spine journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
STUDY
designA retrospective study.
objectiveTo investigate the potential risk factors of dysphagia after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and to establish and validate a prediction model.
methodsThe clinical data of 252 patients who underwent anterior cervical discectomy and fusion in our hospital from January 2018 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into the dysphagia group and the non-dysphagia group according to whether dysphagia occurred after surgery. Age, gender, body mass index, smoking and drinking history, hypertension history, diabetes history, disease duration, placement of Hemovac negative pressure drain, number of segments involved in surgery, whether C
resultsA total of 252 patients were included in the study, 115 of whom presented with dysphagia within 1 week after anterior cervical fusion. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that male gender (OR = .045, 95% CI .223-.889) and whether preoperative tracheal exercise (OR = .260, 95% CI .107-.633) were independent risk factors associated with reduced incidence of postoperative dysphagia.
conclusionThe incidence of dysphagia symptoms after anterior cervical decompression and fusion gradually decreased with the extension of follow-up time, and preoperative tracheal exercise and shortening the operation time may help to reduce the occurrence of postoperative dysphagia.
