Recent progress in surgical treatment of cervical spine myelopathy - A narrative review.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Surgical techniques and technology for cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) have demonstrated remarkable advancement during the past decade. This narrative review examines the evolution of surgical approaches and technological innovations, focusing on both anterior and posterior techniques. Anterior approaches have progressed through the development of endoscopic procedures, novel decompression methods such as vertebral body sliding osteotomy, and advanced implant materials including 3D-printed customized devices. Posterior approaches have evolved with the integration of endoscopic techniques and refined fixation methods, demonstrating reduced tissue trauma and improved outcomes. The integration of surgical assistance technologies, including navigation systems, robotics, and augmented reality, has enhanced surgical precision while potentially reducing procedural risks. While these advances show promising outcomes in terms of surgical precision and patient recovery, challenges persist regarding technology implementation and cost-effectiveness. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence for surgical planning, patient-specific implants, and adjunctive biological therapies may further improve CSM treatment. The optimal application of these innovations requires continued research and careful evaluation to establish their long-term efficacy and safety in clinical practice.
