Review in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundAlthough herniated discs in the cervical spine are rare overall, patients with this clinical picture regularly present themselves in orthopedic and neurosurgical practice. Initially, those affected often have severe local and predominantly radicular pain and, optionally, dermatome-related neurological deficits in the upper extremities, with medullary signs occasionally being found. PROGNOSIS: The prognosis for complete remission is usually favorable, so that primary therapy is almost always conservative. Based on guidelines, the relative and absolute indications for surgery can be derived depending on pain symptoms and neurological deficits. SURGICAL TREATMENT: There are various surgical procedures to choose from. The ventral approach to the cervical spine with either insertion of a cage and the goal of fusion or implantation of an intervertebral disc prosthesis as arthroplasty is most often chosen. For lateral disc prolapse, dorsal foraminotomy with sequestrectomy is recommended. The postoperative outcome is predominantly positive with a relatively low complication rate.
