Key Points

Higher preoperative nutritional risk correlates with poorer surgical outcomes in degenerative cervical myelopathy patients.
The geriatric nutritional risk index serves as an effective predictor of postoperative complications and recovery trajectories.
Cohort analysis utilized medical records of older adults undergoing cervical surgery, emphasizing the importance of nutritional assessment.
Findings suggest that addressing nutritional status could improve surgical recovery in geriatric populations.
