NCT ID NCT07126418
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 60 adults with chronic mechanical neck pain to see if men and women differ in how they sense their head's position (proprioception), pain levels, and disability. Researchers used a device called CROM to measure head repositioning accuracy. The goal is to understand these differences to create more personalized care plans.
