Forearm bone mineral density predicts subsidence of titanium mesh cage after anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion in patients with cervical spondylosis

Table 2 Imaging examination parameters

The normality test was performed using the Shapiro-Wilk test, and the results were as follows: Mean HU value of upper vertebral body (P = 0.231), Mean HU value of lower vertebral body (P = 0.118), C2-7 sagittal vertical axis (P = 0.223), and Average forearm BMD (P = 0.131) conformed to a normal distribution using the independent samples t-test, and Cobb angle correction (P = 0.015), and Restored height of fused segmental vertebrae (P = 0.011) did not conform to normal distribution using the Mann-Whitney U test
