Ungraded means an effect was reported without a GRADE rating; it is not a gap. No studies means the review found nothing to answer the question. The six categories are a display order, not a score.

Population: adults with cervical spine facet dislocations
| Outcome | Effect | Evidence | Status / GRADE |
|---|---|---|---|
Final post‐surgical neurological status NASS (North American Spine Society) scores. Scale from: 0 to 100 (higher scores indicate better neurological function). Anterior vs posterior surgical approaches | no estimate extracted | 1 study · 33 participants | Very low Downgraded: risk of bias, imprecision |
Functional aspects and quality of life ‐ SF‐36 physical scores SF‐36. Scale from: 0 to 100 (higher scores indicate better quality of life). Anterior vs posterior surgical approaches | no estimate extracted | 1 study · 33 participants | Very low Downgraded: risk of bias, imprecision |
Emotional aspects and quality of life ‐ SF‐36 mental scores SF‐36. Scale from: 0 to 100 (higher scores indicate better quality of life). Anterior vs posterior surgical approaches | no estimate extracted | 1 study · 33 participants | Very low Downgraded: risk of bias, imprecision |
