NCT ID NCT06595927
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at 29 people—some with chronic neck pain and some without—to see how their neck muscles behave during an endurance test. Researchers used MRI to measure muscle activity before and after the test, and compared it to clinical signs like balance and movement. The goal is to better understand what happens in the neck muscles of people with ongoing pain.
