Effects of core stabilization exercise and strengthening exercise on proprioception, balance, muscle thickness and pain related outcomes in patients with subacute nonspecific low back pain: a randomized controlled trial.
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of two different exercise regimes, core stabilization exercises (CSE) and strengthening exercise (STE), on proprioception, balance, muscle thickness and pain-related outcomes in patients with subacute non-specific low back pain (NSLBP).

Effect of neck flexion angles on neck muscle activity among smartphone users with and without neck pain.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that both smartphone users with and without neck pain should try to keep their neck flexion angle between 0° and 15° when using their smartphone to reduce neck muscle activity and the risk of developing neck disorders associated with smartphone use.

TL;DR: The RULA results identified the high ergonomics risk of smartphone users, this resulted from two key risk factors: posture and muscle use.
Effect of specific deep cervical muscle exercises on functional disability, pain intensity, craniovertebral angle, and neck-muscle strength in chronic mechanical neck pain: a randomized controlled trial.
TL;DR: It is suggested that 6 weeks of training in both exercise groups can improve neck disability, pain intensity, CV angle, and neck-muscle strength in chronic mechanical neck pain.
