Filter by:Chronic migraine (CM) is defined as a headache that occurs more than 15 days per month, which has the features of migraine headache on at least 8 days per month.1 The cause of CM is not well understood. Many patients with CM appear to have associated musculoskeletal neck pain. The purpose of this study is to treat cervicalgia in patients with migraine and to look for improvement in migraine frequency and intensity. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) can diagnose and treat common musculoskeletal dysfunction. This may break facilitation within the nervous system and reduce musculoskeletal pain which subsequently will reduce headache frequency. This will be a randomized controlled trail comparing patients with CM treated with OMT vs no treatment. The investigators will look at the frequency of migraine days before and after the treatment period to determine migraine frequency and improvement.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the efficacy of greater occipital nerve and supraorbital nerve blockade with local anesthetics for the preventive treatment of migraine without aura.
This study evaluates the efficacy of auricular neurostimulation via an non-invasive percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator in children and adults with cyclic vomiting syndrome.
The main purpose of this study is to evaulate the efficacy and safety of galcanezumab in participants 6 to 17 years of age for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine. The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of galcanezumab versus placebo in the reduction of monthly migraine headache days across the 3-month double-blind treatment period.
The study is to assess the effectiveness of topically applied bimatoprost in reducing migraine headache frequency, severity, and duration. It will also assess the effect of topical bimatoprost on quality of life.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of white matter lesions in Chinese migraineurs with and without right-to-left shunt. The aim is to study the relationship among right-to-left shunt, migraine and white matter lesions.
Abstract: Introduction: Vestibular migraine(VM) is a disease that manifests with episodic vertigo attacks in patients with or without migraine type headaches, when present accompanying the headaches. Its prevalence was found out as %1 in a study in Germany. It usually involves middle aged women. VM can make a huge impact on quality of life, therefore advances in its diagnosis and management are valuable. While pharmacotherapy that is being used in migraine can be beneficial, vestibular rehabilitation(VR) programmes are predicted to be one of the most important types of treatment in management of VM. This study compares the results of pharmacological management options and vestibular rehabilitation programmes in the context of dizziness, balance problems and headache. Material and methods: 77 patients with VM were included in study, and 60 of them completed it. While one group took only VR programme, and another took only pharmacological prophylaxis. The third group took a combined therapy, and the groups were consisted of 20 patients. Patients were assessed with caloric tests, audiometric studies, static posturography, Dizziness Handicap Inventory(DHI), and Activities Specific Balance Confidence(ABC) scales. All of the assessments were applied 3 times throughout the study, and the results were compared with relevant statistical tests.
This study aims to compare the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation on the clinical and cognitive function in patients with chronic migraine.
The purpose of this feasibility study is to gather preliminary information on the safety and effectiveness of patient self-administration of a noninvasive neurostimulation of the vagus nerve using the GammaCore device for the treatment of pain and allodynia symptoms associated with acute migraine in adults.
Chronic migraine is a disabling type of migraine and is often resistant to treatment. Non-pharmacological interventions have been investigated as potential treatment although, unfortunately, the literature on their efficacy is poor and showed mixed results. Well-Being Therapy (WBT) is a brief psychotherapy which has shown efficacy in decreasing the relapse rates of depression in adults, in generalized anxiety disorder and in cyclothymia. It can be implemented to empower psychological well-being. The aim of the present study is to test the efficacy of WBT in a sample of patients with chronic migraine to verify if it reduces the disability due to migraine and distress, it increases the psychological well-being as well as the level of euthymia.
