Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

With the recent release and upcoming release of several cervical disc replacements, we are potentially at the juncture of a major change in practice habits. The present article reviews the most recent research into the rationale, patient selection, clinical results and complication profile of cervical arthroplasty. Recent results of prospective randomized controlled trials comparing cervical disc replacement and anterior fusion have demonstrated safety as well as equal or superior clinical results. In vivo kinematic studies also suggest decreased rates of adjacent segment disease after disc replacement. Increasingly, more studies are examining the complication profile and emerging contraindications for cervical disc replacement. Cervical arthroplasty is a new technique in its infancy of development. Understanding potential complications and pitfalls will ensure correct patient selection and avoidance of common preventable complications associated with cervical arthroplasty. Although initial results appear promising, long-term data are eagerly awaited before a final decision on the value of this procedure can be made.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
