Filter by:The proposed project aims at establishing Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-Related Axon Reflex of Trigeminal Afferents as a neurophysiological biomarker for migraine.
This study evaluates the efficacy of eptinezumab to prevent migraine and headache in patients with the combined diagnosis of migraine and medication overuse headache
Numerous treatments have been recommended for the prevention of migraine. The purpose of this randomized double-blind placebo controlled trial was to assess the efficacy of MIGRAINEGUARD ™ supplement by Herbacure Natural containing a combination of COQ10 , magnesium, riboflavin ,feverfew , Skullcap and black pepper as prophylactic treatment for migraine.
Comparison of efficacy and safety of amitriptyline and nerve blocks
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of physiotherapy program and review the associations between neck movements, pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movements and quality of life in individuals with migraine.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of clorazepate in addition to the usual medication for treating migraine attack in the emergency room
This study uses a factorial research design to evaluate a nurse delivered mind body intervention using different doses of 3 treatment components to determine the optimized treatment for headache day reduction.
Migraine is a highly prevalent and disabling neurological disease, which has a tremendous impact on sufferers, healthcare systems, and the economy. According to the 2016 WHO report, migraine is the second leading cause of years lived with disability, greater than all other neurological diseases combined. Yet, the treatment in migraine is far from optimum; the sufferers often abuse painkillers and complicated with medication overuse headache. Migraine is characterized by the hypersensitivity of the sensory system, potentially attributed to dysfunctional pain modulatory networks located in the deep brain structures, particularly the brainstem. However, the current understanding of these deeply seated, dysregulated pain modulatory circuits in migraine is limited due to technological constraints. Besides, studies with an in-depth analysis of the clinical manifestations (i.e., deep phenotyping) are lacking, and there is no corresponding animal model readily available for translational research. In this project, the investigators propose a multimodal approach to address these issues by applying the technologies and platforms developed by our team to explore the correlation between pain sensitivity and dysregulated connectivities from brainstem to other brain regions. In this four-year project, the investigators will recruit 400 migraine patients and 200 healthy subjects. The investigators aim at decomposing the key brainstem mechanisms underlying dysmodulated pain sensitivity in migraine from 5 comprehensive perspectives: (1) clinical deep phenotyping, (2) high-resolution brainstem structural MRI and functional connectivity analysis, (3) innovative brainstem EEG signal detecting technique, (4) multimodal data fusion platform with neural network analysis, and (5) ultrahigh-resolution brainstem-based connectomes, intravital manipulations and recording, and connectome-sequencing in animal models. Moreover, the investigators will collaborate with Taiwan Semiconductor Research Institute to develop a wearable high-density EEG equipment, integrated with a System-on-Chip capable of edge-computing the signal using algorithms derived from our brainstem decoding platform. The ultimate goal is to build a real-time brainstem decoding system for clinical application.
The main aim of the present pilot study is to prove the possibility to use the Nitroglycerin (NTG) model to describe the pathophysiology of headache using task-free advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniques, in order to depict the static changes of the ictal and inter-ictal phase of migraine attacks vs the pain free state in healthy subjects and to compare that with the spontaneous headache attack experienced by chronic migraineurs.
The prevalence of migraine is higher in female patients with various intestinal diseases. An explanation could be that migraine is caused by a leaky gut, defined by increased intestinal permeability that permits particles to pass through the gastrointestinal wall. Probiotics, may be able to improve intestinal barrier function. OBJECTIVE: To test whether probiotics, as adjucnt therapy, can reduce incidence and severity of migraine attacks by reducing intestinal permeability.
