Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: Neck pain is a common global problem, an important source of disability Bad posture of neck with respect to chest is one of the commonest causes of chronic neck pain. This is common to the job related (e.g. computer professionals, clerks, bank employees) where the neck is kept in a flexed position for long periods of time. The objectives of the study is to compare the effectiveness of self SNAGs with dynamic isometric exercise in chronic neck pain.Methods: It is a comparative experimental study. This study includes (N=40) desk job people with chronic neck pain subjects with age group of 25-45 years. They were randomly assigned into 2 groups (Group A and B). Group A had 20 (N=20) subjects who are treated with self SNAGs, Group B had 20 (N=20) who are treated with dynamic isometric exercise using resistance band. The subjects were given intervention once a day for 6 weeks.Results: At the end of 6 weeks, both neck pain and disability decreased in both groups, range of motion had also improved statistically significantly in both groups, but the results showed that the pain scores are significantly improved in group A( t = -2.707) which is significant at 5% level of significance (p = 0.01). It has been inferred that VAS decreases more when self SNAGs was applied and the difference of means of NDI, t = -4.468 which is highly significant (p = 0.00) implying that NDI decrease more when self SNAGs was applied as compared to dynamic isometric exercise.Conclusion: From the above study it is concluded that, self SNAGs is an effective way of decreasing pain and increasing functional ability when compared to dynamic isometric exercise using resistance band.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
