Summary

This study looked at 84 adults with chronic neck pain to see how central sensitization (a condition where the nervous system becomes overly sensitive) relates to pain intensity, thinking patterns, sleep quality, and jaw function. Researchers used questionnaires to measure these factors. The goal was to better understand the role of the nervous system in chronic neck pain, which could help improve treatment approaches.
