Study Design. Population‐based, cross‐sectional mailed survey. Objective. To determine the lifetime, period, and point prevalence of neck pain and its related disability among Saskatchewan adults and investigate the presence and strength of nonresponse bias. Summary of Background Data. In Europe, the life‐time and point prevalence of neck pain is almost as high as the prevalence of low back pain. Similarly, chronic neck pain is highly prevalent and a common source of disability in the working…

Epidemiology of Neck Pain and Its Impact on Quality-of-Life—A Population-Based, Cross Sectional Study in Singapore
TLDR
The findings show that neck pain is a prevalent condition with chronicity and severity of symptoms associated with reduced QoL and increased disability and Population sample health scores can serve as potential reference targets in disease management and aid national health care policy-making.
Prevalence of chronic spinal pain and identification of associated factors in a sample of the population of São Paulo, Brazil: cross-sectional study.
TLDR
Quality of life and self-rated health scores were significantly worse among individuals with chronic spinal pain, and the factors independently associated with chronic pain were female sex, age 30 years or older, low education, symptoms compatible with anxiety and physical exertion during the main occupation.
Prevalence and Risk Factor of Neck Pain in Elderly Korean Community Residents
TLDR
Although the majority of individuals had low-intensity/low-disability pain, subjects with neck pain had a significantly worse SF-12 score indicating that neck pain has significant health impact, this is the first large-scale Korean study estimating the prevalence of neck pain in elderly population.
Incidence and Recurrence of Disabling Low Back Pain and Neck-Shoulder Pain
TLDR
Prevalence and incidence of disabling low back and neck-shoulder pain in an industrial population and the association with sex and job title simultaneously leads to a better understanding of the natural pattern and distribution of LBP and NSP in a working population are studied.
