Description
Shusaku Hosono and co-authors measured neck movement directly in patients with atopic dermatitis and related it to their sleep problems, in a 2024 study. Poor sleep is common and distressing in this skin disease, and stiff neck movement had been suspected as one factor, though earlier work leaned on self-reports. The team enrolled 261 adults with the disease.
Neck range of motion was read from bending X-rays by an automatic system. Sleep disturbance and itch were scored on rating scales, and blood tests covered allergy and inflammation markers. Comparing groups, the authors explored how measured stiffness lines up with broken sleep and with the lab values.
