The quality of reports on cervical arterial dissection following cervical spinal manipulation.
<h4>Background</h4>Cervical artery dissection (CAD) and stroke are serious harms that are sometimes associated with cervical spinal manipulation therapy (cSMT). Because of the relative rarity of these adverse events, studying them prospectively is challenging. As a result, systematic rev...
