Patients with neck pain may experience cervical myelopathy, this may be detected by clinical myelopathic signs, although they did not have any symptom of myelopathy, except having neck pain. Decreasing physical performance is one symptom of cervical myelopathy that can lead to reduced quality of life in the elderly, however, in adult neck pain with clinical myelopathic signs have not been evaluated. Therefore, this research aimed to compare physical performance in two groups of adult patients with neck pain: those with and without clinical myelopathic signs. A total of 52 participants, gender, age, and body mass index (BMI) matched were allocated into 2 groups of 26 subjects with neck pain, those with, and without, clinical myelopathic signs. The grip and release test, nine-hole peg test, ten second step test and foot-tapping test were evaluated. The group of neck pain participants with clinical myelopathic signs exhibited greater impairment in all the tests than the group without clinical myelopathic signs (p < 0.001). Effect sizes (Cohen’s d) were grip and release test: 2.031, nine-hole peg test: 1.143, ten second step test: 1.329, and foot-tapping test: 0.798. Neck pain participants with clinical myelopathic signs demonstrated reduced physical performance. Physical performance tests may need to assessed in adult patients with neck pain who had clinical myelopathic signs.

“…Eight cross-sectional studies investigated other health outcomes. Large good-quality surveys (only one did not weight data) including adults found that DUs had significantly worse fitness [ 76 ] and significantly higher levels of uric acid and prevalence of hyperuricemia [ 23 ] compared with ESCC. Further, higher odds of COVID-19 symptoms and higher odds of confirmed/suspected COVID-19 diagnosis were found in DUs [ 25 , 77 ] than in ESCC, but significance levels were not tested.…”

“…Most of the studies did not collect robust data on the level of EC and CC consumption. Those that did, found that DUs smoked the same [ 15 , 21 , 29 , 35 , 57 , 76 ] or a significantly higher number of CPD as ESCC [ 66 ].…”

“…Moreover, one of the large, best available surveys showed that the frequency of CC use was positively associated with toxicant concentration [ 15 ]. Most of the studies that reported the same or higher tobacco consumption in DUs as in ESCC found significantly worse health outcomes in DUs than in ESCC [ 15 , 21 , 29 , 57 , 66 , 76 ]. None of the studies where DUs reported smoking a lower number of CPD than ESCC found a significantly worse outcome in DUs [ 52 , 59 , 62 ]; in fact, one of them found that ESCC had a worse outcome [ 59 ].…”

Background: A high prevalence of dual use of e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes has been reported across the world. Methods: A systematic search was carried out. We included original articles on any topic relevant to health, excluding mental health, in all languages. The PRISMA guidelines were followed. Both reviewers independently screened and read all publications. We compared dual use with exclusive smoking of conventional cigarettes (ESCC). Results: Fifty-two publications (49 studies) were included. Thirteen papers/10 studies were prospective. There was great heterogeneity across studies. Many methodological weaknesses, such as inaccurate exposure measurement, lack of adjustment for former tobacco consumption, and lack of significance testing were identified. Most prospective studies found dual use to be at least as harmful as ESCC. The longest follow-up was six years. Most of the best available cross-sectional studies found dual use associated with the same and, in several studies, significantly higher risk of self-reported symptoms/disease than in ESCC. The intensity of cigarette smoking seems associated with worse health. Conclusion: Existing studies indicate that dual use is at least as, or probably even more, harmful than ESCC. Due to the predominance of cross-sectional studies and the methodological weaknesses we judged the overall certainty of the evidence as “low certainty”.

“…One recent article relevant to the convergence of combustible cigarettes and vapor or e-cigarettes examined the effects if one or both on the lungs and consequently on physical fitness. 3 The public health branch of the US Army published a paper just before the COVID-19 outbreak describing a stepwise decrease in mean physical functioning in healthy soldiers depending on their use of cigarettes, e-cigarettes, or both. The soldiers who used both had an additive deficiency in 2-mile run time and the maximum number of push-ups and sit-ups performed in 2 minutes.…”
