Associated Factors with Neck Pain among Productive Adult Motorcyclists in Metropolitan University Settings : A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07071792 (Prevalence of Helmet Associated Neck Pain Among Tcs Riders), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
objectiveNeck pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder frequently experienced by motorbike riders and stands as a leading cause of high disability rates globally. Research on neck pain among motorcyclist in metropolitan universities remains limited. However, given the rising population of urban motorcyclists, identifying factors contributing to neck pain becomes increasingly crucial.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional, observational analytic study utilizing convenience sampling method that included 421 study respondents. Demographics, motorcycle riding habits, perceived stress, and neck pain history were collected using a questionnaire which was then analyzed statistically applying chi-square test, Spearman's rank, and logistic regression analysis.
resultsTwo-thirds (67%) of motorcycle riders in productive age report history of neck pain. Logistic regression analysis discovers that occupations as lecturers or teaching staff (odds ratio [OR], 3940; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1193-13007; p=0.024) and daily sleep duration of less than 7 hours per day (OR, 1774; 95% CI, 1094-2875; p=0.020) is a contributing factor for the occurrence of neck pain among productive adult motorcyclist in metropolitan university settings with age, marital status, and daily commuting distance as confounding factors.
conclusionNeck pain is a common complaint among productive adult motorcyclists. In our university, occupational factors and daily sleep duration pose as risk factors for neck pain in this demographic. It is crucial for both productive adult motorbike riders and healthcare professionals to identify and address these risk factors according to established guidelines.
