Minimally Invasive Cervical Foraminotomy vs. Anterior Cervical Fusion for Cervical Radiculopathy .
High Impact
This study has been identified as potentially high impact. OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself. Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone. This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.

Outcomes of interest included complication rates, reoperation rates, operative time and hospital length of stay. Pooled analysis demonstrated no significant differences between overall complication rates or reoperation rates. No differences in operative time or length of stay were found between groups.
