Neck pain study comparing treatments by spinal narrowing
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how different levels of spinal narrowing affect pain, movement, and quality of life in people with long-term neck pain. It may help doctors understand the best ways to treat neck pain based on MRI findings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study follows adults with degenerative narrowing in the neck spine to see how symptoms and function change over time. It may help doctors better understand which patients improve or worsen, and why.
This trial looks at how chronic neck pain may affect the brain's signaling and lead to central pain. It tests a possible link between neck pain and central pain syndrome.
This study looks at whether narrowing of the spine in your neck (cervical stenosis) affects how well your hands work. If you have ongoing neck pain and have already had a neck MRI, the researchers want to see how the stenosis might relate to your hand function.
This study tests if a new approach can help people with chronic neck pain that has lasted at least 6 months and hasn't been treated in the past year. It aims to improve quality of life by finding better ways to manage pain.
This study is looking at a new, less invasive neck surgery for people with cervical spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal in the neck). It tests whether this surgery helps relieve symptoms like pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms or legs.
This study compares two surgical techniques to relieve pressure on the spinal cord in the neck. It aims to see which method provides better results for people with a narrowed spinal canal causing symptoms.
