Investigation of Related Factors in Patients With Non-Specific Neck Pain
Investigation of Temporomandibular Disorder, Migraine, and Other Related Factors in Patients With Non-Specific Neck Pain
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
It has been shown that there is a complex association between neck pain, temporomandibular joint dysfunctions, and migraines, and that these conditions can be influenced by factors such as depression, physical inactivity, and health-related quality of life. Likewise, it is observed that all the factors within this complex structure can actually act as triggers, initiators, or intensifiers of each other. In recent years, with a more detailed examination of their physiological connections, a reciprocal triangular relationship has been demonstrated between temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunctions, headaches-especially migraines-and neck pain. A detailed correlation of risk factors affecting neck pain-primarily temporomandibular joint involvement and headaches-in patients with neck pain will help identify underlying secondary effects and facilitate the inclusion of patient-centered, specific exercises in rehabilitation programs for these patients. Studies in the literature indicate that the relationship between neck pain, temporomandibular joint dysfunctions, and migraines has not been evaluated collectively, and the impact of factors such as depression, physical inactivity, and health-related quality of life on these conditions has not been thoroughly assessed. Therefore, this study aims to comprehensively investigate the effects of temporomandibular joint dysfunctions, migraines, and other associated factors in individuals with non-specific neck pain.
