Table 4.
Comparison of the recovery rate of ACDF with UPR or non-UPR technique.
| Recovery rate | P-value | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| ACDF + UPR | ACDF | ||
| JOA | 78.26 ± 10.17% | 73.26 ± 11.35% | 0.58 |
| VAS | 86.64 ± 9.62% | 81.14 ± 10.72% | 0.21 |
ACDF, anterior cervical discectomy and fusion; UPR, uncinate process resection; JOA, Japanese orthopedic association; VAS, visual analog scale. P < 0.05 is considered as significant.
