Filter by:To assess the 6-months effects and safety of stellate ganglion block(SGB) for Chronic Migraine (CM) patients who failure to undergo preventive therapy and are seeking a more suitable non-pharmacological therapy.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the clinical and nutritional effectiveness of ketogenic diet (KD) in pediatric patients with genetic, neurological or metabolic conditions requiring KD. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - does KD support adequate growth? - does KD improve clinical symptoms? - how does KD impact quality of life? Participants will be followed up as per clinical practice
A single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted from January 2022 to September 2023. Chronic migraine patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either Laser acupuncture or sham treatment. The co-primary outcomes were changes in monthly migraine days (MMD) and acute headache medications usage days per month from baseline. Evaluations were taken at baseline and each follow-up point.
This study will unpack the behavioral intervention for migraine and determine the optimum combinations. In addition, the study will test preference and self-selection effects during the trial.
Migraine is a leading cause of disability with an estimated prevalence of 12% in Europe. The headache field witnessed a breakthrough since the introduction of specific preventive therapies which proved effective and well tolerated, namely the monoclonal antibodies directed against the Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) pathway (mAbs). Their mechanism of action is still debated. Several Authors claimed that, despite the site of action is peripheral (namely outside of the blood brain barrier), the resulting action may take place at central level. Another valuable hypothesis is that the clinical modifications resulting from mAbs treatment may induce functional modulation of several brain areas. With these premises, the primary aim of the study is to evaluate changes in functional connectivity in patients undergoing preventive mAbs treatment using high density EEG.
The aim of this work is to assess the efficacy of ultrasound guided greater occipital nerve block either by local anesthetic or by botulinum toxin in comparison to medical treatment in prevention of chronic migraine.
The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and effectiveness of the study drug, Dysport® when compared with placebo in preventing chronic migraine. A migraine is a headache with severe throbbing pain or a pulsating sensation, usually on one side of the head, and is often accompanied by feeling or being sick and a sensitivity to bright lights and sound. Chronic migraine is defined as having at least 15 days of headache a month with at least 8 of those days being migraine headache days. Migraines are caused by a series of events which cause the brain to get stimulated/activated, which results in the release of chemicals that cause pain. Dysport® is a formulation of Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A), a medication that stops the release of these chemical messengers. The study will consist of 3 periods: 1. A 'screening period' of 6 to 12 weeks to assess whether the participant can take part to the study and requires 1 visit. 2. A first Treatment Phase of 24 weeks. On Day 1 and at Week 12 of the first Treatment Phase, participants will receive injections into various muscles across the head, neck, face and shoulders. The injections will contain either a dose "A" or dose "B" of Dysport® or a placebo (an inactive substance or treatment that looks the same as, and is given in the same way as, an active drug or intervention/treatment being studied). Participants will make 4 visits to the clinic in person and have 4 remote (online) visits. 3. A second Treatment Phase of 24 weeks (extension phase). At Week 24 and at Week 36, all participants will get Dysport® (dose "A" or dose "B"). There will be 3 in person visits and 4 remote visits. Participants will need to complete an e-diary and questionnaires throughout the study. Participants will undergo blood samplings, urine collections, physical examinations, and clinical evaluations. They may continue some other medications, but the details need to be recorded. The total study duration for a participant will be up to 60 weeks (approx. 14 months).
People with chronic migraine headaches face many challenges, including high levels of daily pain, disturbances to everyday activities and sleep, and problems with mood such as depression or anxiety. This trial is being completed to study whether changing an individual's behaviors may have an impact as a treatment for migraine headaches. Eligible participants will be randomized to one of the four arms. This study will be conducted remotely without in-person contact. Study Hypothesis: - There is a main effect of attending either the Empowered Relief and Health Education intervention on reductions in migraine-related disability 1 month after completing either intervention - There is a main effect of Empowered Relief and Health Education interventions on reducing pain-related catastrophizing and migraine symptom severity 1 month after completing either intervention (secondary hypothesis) - The expected reductions in migraine-related disability, pain catastrophizing, and migraine symptom severity will be maintained at secondary time points (2 months, 3 months, and 6 months after completing either intervention) (secondary hypothesis)
This study examines cervical joint position sense in individuals with chronic migraine vs. healthy controls. The ability to reposition the cervical spine after active movement will be evaluated in different head positions. Impaired proprioception and motor control is hypothesized in the migraine group.
The purpose of this prospective and multicentric study is to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of lasmiditan as acute migraine treatment in a cohort of episodic or chronic migraine patients.
