Filter by:This is a pilot feasibility acceptability study to examine the impact of smartphone-based progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) on migraine quality of life, frequency, intensity, and disability. Feasibility is measured by: a) Proportion of patients who enrolled in the study/were recruited for the study, b) Number of days PMR practiced/week as determined with the backend analytics in the RELAXaHEAD app, c) Minutes/day spent doing PMR, d) Reasons for non-adherence. Acceptability is measured by: a) Satisfaction using Likert scale questions on RELAXaHEAD usability, content, and functionality b) Willingness to repeat a similar treatment intervention in the future (Definitely No/Probably No/Unsure/Probably Yes/ Definitely Yes) c) Attrition. In addition, whether use of electronically based PMR introduced in the emergency department (ED) improves migraine quality of life (MSQv2) and migraine related disability (MIDAS) at 3 months post ED-discharge (or post enrollment date if recruited post ED discharge) compared to those who are not introduced to PMR will be assessed. All participants will be asked to track their headache frequency and intensity using our smartphone application (app) and will be asked to complete migraine quality of life assessments and migraine related disability at follow-up.
Individuals with migraine have impaired cognitive function and worse autonomic function compared to individuals without migraine. Objective: To evaluate the autonomic function and cognition in young individuals with migraine compared to healthy individuals without migraine. Methods: Cross-sectional study will be carried out at University of Fortaleza with individuals with previous migraines diagnoses and healthy volunteers without migraines. Volunteers of both sexes, aged between 18 and 60 years, clinically diagnosed with migraine or not, who have not undergone any type of drug treatment for at least three months and who accept to participate in the research will be enrolled in the research. Individuals who have comorbidities such as hypertension and Diabetes mellitus (type I and II), respiratory, cardiac and/or chronic vascular diseases, have suffered any significant facial trauma, have a cognitive problem or dysfunction associated with cognition, or have suffered any episode of stroke or transient ischemic attack prior to conducting this research will not be enrolled. Participants will be assessed through cognitive tests, and autonomic function such as Neck Disability Index, Migraine Disability Assessment Questionnaire, Stroop Colo test, digit symbol substitution test, Addenbrooke's cognitive examination, mini-mental state examination, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Trail Making Test A and B and reaction time test and by MindWave Mobile® devices and Polar V800®.
To explore the relationship between clinical response to erenumab and genetic biomarkers
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is a peptide of 28 amino acid residues that belongs to the glucagon/secretin superfamily of peptides. Along with other neuropeptides, such as calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), it is released from the trigeminal afferents and exerts a strong vasodilating activity on the cranial vasculature. Especially, it shares 70% structure with PACAP and acts on the same receptors. But, unlike it, VIP cannot induce a long-lasting vasodilation and has a modest capability to induce migraine attacks. Whether it may induce migraine-like attacks in migraine patients, as a twenty-minute infusion of PACAP, is unknown.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the treatment benefit of erenumab on headache duration of at least moderate pain intensity.
Acute headache is one of the most common reasons for presentation to the emergency department (ED), accounting for 2-3% of all emergency visits. Migraine is a disorder of the central nervous system characterized by a moderate or severe headache, which is generally associated with nausea and/or sensitivity to light and sound, interfering with daily activities.
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was suggested to provide beneficial effects in chronic migraine (CM), a condition often associated with medication overuse (MO) for which no long-term therapy is available.
To investigate the glutaminergic system in the onset of migraine-like attacks.
In seeking to understand the capacity for psilocybin to reduce migraine headache burden, this study will investigate single and repeated dosing of psilocybin up to two doses. In seeking to identify an underlying mechanism in psilocybin's effects, neuroinflammatory markers for migraine headache will be measured.
