Study on neck muscle endurance and position sense in cervical radiculopathy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how well neck muscles can hold a position and how accurately you can sense your head's position. It is for people with cervical radiculopathy—a condition where a pinched nerve in the neck causes pain that travels down the arm.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult between 20 and 60 years old.
- You have had pain in your neck that spreads to your arm for at least 4 weeks.
- A doctor has diagnosed you with cervical radiculopathy, possibly with imaging like an MRI.
- You are able to follow instructions and take part in tests of neck endurance and head position sense.
- You have not had neck surgery or a recent neck injury.
- You do not have other nerve or balance problems (like stroke, multiple sclerosis, or inner ear issues).

This study tests how well people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck causing arm pain) can sense their arm's position. It aims to understand if this condition affects your body's awareness of where your arm is in space.
This study looks at how neck pain and muscle weakness affect the way people walk when they have a pinched nerve in the neck. It aims to find connections that could help with treatment.
This study looks at how forward head posture affects your sense of body position and back muscle strength in people with neck pain that travels to one arm. It may help understand better ways to treat neck and arm pain.
This study tests if combining laser guidance with neck exercises helps people with cervical radiculopathy (nerve pain in the neck that travels to the arm) improve their neck control and reduce pain. It may be a good fit if you have moderate neck-related arm pain.
This trial tests a specific neck movement retraining program to improve joint awareness and daily function in people with chronic cervical radiculopathy (nerve irritation in the neck). It may help if you have had neck pain that goes into your arm for at least 3 months.
This study tests whether core stabilization exercises (exercises to strengthen your trunk and back) can help reduce pain and improve function in people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck that causes arm pain and numbness). If you're between 35 and 50, have had neck pain for over six weeks, and your symptoms fit, you may be eligible.
