To assess the relationship between primary headaches and irritable bowel syndrome
This study aims to assess the effect and safety of erenumab compared to placebo for the treatment of acute posttraumatic headache (PTH) in military service members and civilians with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Migraine causes severe impairment in quality of life (QOL) both during and between attacks. Migraine also increases absenteeism, reduces productivity at work as well as at home, disrupts social and family relationships, also is associated with increased healthcare costs. The current study aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated therapeutic patient education and relaxation training intervention in order to decrease the burden of migraine headache among adult patients attending the headache clinic in Ain Shams University Hospitals.
The coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 was pandemic since 2020. Vaccination is one of the most important measure to control the outbreak. The countries of the world started the vaccination since December, 2020. Taiwan started since March, 21st, 2021. Currently, Taiwanese people receive COVID-19 vaccination by either AZ or Moderna; Pfizer/BNT vaccine may import in the near future. The side effects post vaccination including injection site pain, fatigue, headache, myalgia, chills, arthralgia, fever, and so on. Incidence of side effects more frequent in young people than elders; more frequent in the first dose than second dose in AZ vaccine; more frequent in the second dose in Moderna or Pfizer/BNT vaccine. Taiwan V-watch is a system monitored by CDC for people proactive notification of side effects post COVID-19 vaccination. But it doesn't include the objective cardiovascular parameters, for example, heart rate, arrhythmia, blood pressure, central body temperature (ear temperature) and blood oxygen saturation level. This study aims to monitor the physiologic and psychologic effects, and side effects before and after COVID-19 vaccination in patients at high cardiovascular risk, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and type 2 diabetes, and arrhythmia or coronary artery disease. The investigators arrange two weeks of continuous home BP/HR monitoring (7 days pre- and post-vaccination) for evaluation of physiologic effects post vaccination. Due to fever noted in some people post-vaccination, the investigators also measure ear temperature, pulse oximetry, and environmental temperature and humidity, for the reference of BP monitoring. In conclusion, this study may provide important information of cardiovascular response and psychosocial effects after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for proactive prevention of cardiovascular complications.
The study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind clinical trial that aims to investigate the effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) on attack frequency and severity in patients with chronic cluster headache (CH). Study outline Month 1: Baseline. Establishment of a baseline profile of the participants CH attacks (severity, duration, medicine utilization etc), health-related quality of life (QoL) and symptoms of anxiety and depression. No active treatment. Follow-up visit after 30 days. Months 2-4: TENS period. All participants will receive TENS-treatment. Clinical follow-up visit by the end of month four. Months 5-7: Double-blinded, randomized experimental period. All participants will have an ONS-system (lead, impulse generator) implanted and will be randomized 1:1 to receive either 1) burst (paresthesia-free) ONS or 2) placebo (deactivated ONS system). Clinical follow-up visit by the end of month seven. Months 8-10: Open label period. All participants will receive tonic (conventional, paresthesia-inducing) ONS. Clinical follow-up visit by the end of month ten. During every study phase each participant will fill out a weekly electronic headache registration as well as answering questionnaires regarding health-related quality of life and symptoms of anxiety and depression before every follow-up visit.
Study Purpose: This study will explore the feasibility of administering Holographic Memory Resolution® (HMR) to adults who are experiencing chronic pain for 6 months or more.
The aim of this study is to find out the effects of Mulligan SNAGs along with thoracic postural correction techniques on patients with chronic cervicogenic headache. Patients suffering from cervicogenic headache are often associated with muscle imbalance. This study will be significant in determining the effects of SNAGs along with thoracic postural correction techniques to improve pain, level of disability and functional status in patients of cervicogenic headache. It will be Randomized controlled trial study design Data will be collected from Lady reading Hospital Peshawar Purposive sampling, group randomization using lottery method will be used in this study.
To evaluate the effect of the cannabidiol (CBD) + cannabigerol (CBG) + tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) up to 133/66/4mg daily versus placebo as adjuvant treatment in chronic migraine (CM) patients under preventive treatment at a stable dose for at least 3 months who present at least 5 headaches day a month. CM patients of both sexes, between 25 and 65 years old, who have not had CBD and/or THC as a migraine treatment. Patients may be having migraine preventive treatment such as propranolol, atenolol, topiramate, valproic acid/sodium valproate, levetiracetam, gabapentin, lamotrigine, pre-gabaline, flunarizine, amitriptyline, nortriptyline, clomipramine, candesartan, galcanezumab, erenumab, fremanezumab, botulinum toxin type A. Acute treatment will follow patients doctor's prescription. Exclusion criteria: active liver disease or elevated liver transaminases> 3 times than the normal values, pregnancy, fertile age women without contraceptive treatment or who intend to get pregnant, patients without migraine preventive treatment or that changed the preventive treatment less than 3 months from the study start, substance abuse or addiction, use of medical cannabis or products with CBD or THC in the last 30 days or during study period, history of allergy or adverse reactions with the use of CBD or related products, substance users of liver enzymes inducers such as rifampicin, ketoconazole, theophylline, carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital and St. John's wort, clobazam, macrolides, verapamil, fluoxetine, amiodarone and tacrolimus. Patients on vitamin K anticoagulant medicines, as warfarin. Randomization using a computacional system will stratify participants in each group by gender (F/M), age (25-34/35-44/45-54/55-65yo), headache days presented in the baseline month (5-10/11-15/16-20/21-25/26-30), overuse medication (yes or no). After randomization patients will be divided into two groups of 55 participants, who will receive CBD + CBG + THC up to a maximum daily dose of 133/66/4 mg or placebo for 12 weeks (V0 screening, V1 allocation, V4 final visit). The main outcome is the reduction in frequency of headache days per 4 weeks between V1 and V4 compared to placebo. Secondary outcomes will be a reduction in duration and intensity of migraine attacks, amount of painkillers used and percentage of patients with a reduction greater than 50% on migraine days, 50% reduction in the other variables as MIDAS scores, HIT-6 scores, Beck's Anxiety and Depression Scales, Epworth Sleepiness Scales, and the scores at The Severity of Dependence Scale used as an indicator of overuse medication in this sample. Clinical data will be registered on a personalized headache diary developed to this study using MyCap, from RedCap System, as an APP for daily entries using smartphones, androids or IOS system. The clinical and laboratory data obtained in this study will comply with the objectives elaborated in the evaluation of the primary and secondary endpoints, the proposal of which is to publish the data regardless of the results obtained.
