First seen Feb 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study looked at 130 people with lumbar disc herniation (slipped disc) to see if a blood-based marker called the Systemic Immune-Inflammatory Index (SIII) could help predict which discs would shrink naturally. Researchers compared patients who had surgery with those treated medically. The goal was to understand if inflammation levels in the blood relate to how the body heals a herniated disc. This is an observational study, not a treatment trial.
