Cervical proprioception and its relationship with neck pain intensity in subjects with cervical spondylosis

"Studies reporting this assessment in subjects with cervical spondylosis (CS) have not previously been investigated… This study demonstrated that cervical proprioceptive errors (JPEs) are significantly larger in the CS group than in the healthy control group indicating that cervical proprioception is impaired in subjects with CS. Cervical proprioceptive errors in the CS group significantly and positively correlated with neck pain intensity. The cervical JPE increased with increased neck pain intensity showing that an increase in pain intensity will impair the proprioceptive functionality"
