Analysis of posture and balance impairments in individuals with chronic nonspecific neck pain-an observational study.
Article in Health science reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Neck pain is one of the most burdensome chronic musculoskeletal problems globally. Impaired proprioception is associated with Chronic Nonspecific neck pain as the structures of the cervical spine are crucial for proprioception and balance. There is a paucity of literature examining objective measures of balance and postural sway in patients with Nonspecific neck pain. Methods: This study was observational and consisted of 126 samples (63 cases and 63 controls who were recruited using convenience sampling. The demographics of the samples were collected and the postural and balance impairment was assessed using Biodex Balance SD. Mean, Median, and SD were obtained and the inferential analysis was done using the Whitney U Test and the level of significance was accepted at Results: The subjects with neck pain showed had a lower static stability index, static sway index, static stability index- forward backward and static sway index lateral scores than the normal counterparts. There are significant differences in the overall static stability index, ( Conclusion: Subjects with neck pain showed had a lower static stability index, static sway index, static stability index- forward backward and static sway index lateral scores than the normal counterparts and there was a significant difference between the static sway and static stability index in forward and backward directions as well as in lateral direction. These findings may help to assess the specific balance parameters and address the underlying causes of balance issues in patients with neck pain and also provide a comprehensive care to the patients. Clinical Trial Registration: The trial was registered with CTRI India with registration number: CTRI/2022/07/044222.
