Filter by:INTRODUCTION: It is very common that migraine patients could refer neck pain during or after the pain phase of migraine, suggesting that migraine pathophysiological mechanisms could be effective in activating neck pain pathways and be part of the migraine attack. Due to the therapeutic effect of multimodal physical therapy (mobilization and/or manipulation plus exercises) on several pain conditions arising from articular and/or muscular structures such as neck pain, and given the close clinical, anatomical and pathogenetic bi-directional relationship between neck pain and migraine, it would be of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of the physical treatment of the neck region in migraine pain. PURPOSE: to evaluate the efficacy of a combined multimodal physical therapy approach plus usual care vs. usual care alone in subjects with episodic and chronic migraine with concomitant cervical musculoskeletal dysfunctions. STUDY DESIGN: this is a prospective, parallel group, randomized clinical trial. METHODS: A total of 56 subjects aged 18-65 who meet criteria for episodic or chronic migraine with concomitant cervical musculoskeletal dysfunctions will be randomly assigned to receive, musculoskeletal focused multimodal physical therapy (16 sessions over 8 weeks) plus usual care treatment vs. usual care alone. CONFLICT OF INTEREST: not declared.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of multi-strain probiotics as an adjunctive treatment for episodic migraine
This study aims to evaluate the usefulness of an app-based headache diary in episodic migraine patients. For this the investigators will conduct a randomized clinical trial with a crossover design, using the app-based diary and a traditional paper-based headache diary. The patients will use each diary for 13 weeks. The investigators will evaluate diary adhesion after each 13-week period, and also evaluate headache burden and prophylactic medication compliance at the beginning, at the crossover point, and at the end of the study, and acute headache medication use through diary records. The investigators will also evaluate user preference through a questionnaire at the end of the study.
The purpose of this clinical study is to better understand the function of the autonomic nervous system in patients with migraine. We aim to understand whether the autonomic functions change depending on the migraine status (i.e. whether they are between or during attacks) and whether the CGRP monoclonal antibody (mAb) class of drugs affects the autonomic functions. The aim is not to investigate the effect of CGRP-mAb on migraine frequency. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a neurotransmitter in the nervous system that plays an essential role in the development of migraine headache. Monoclonal antibodies can block the function of this messenger substance. Several studies have shown that this blockade leads to a reduction in the frequency of migraine. In addition to its role in migraine, CGRP also acts on the blood vessels and the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for everything we have no control over in our body. This includes everything from heart rate and blood pressure to our digestion.
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.
