Filter by:The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of non-invasive auricular vagus nerve stimulation on pain and pulse variability in women aged 18-55 years with migraine. It is also aimed to see the effects of vagus nerve stimulation from all directions by making pain, pulse, blood pressure and autonomic measurements.
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the tolerability (how patients handle the study treatment) and safety of atogepant compared to topiramate in participants with migraine. Atogepant is a medicine currently approved for the preventive treatment of adult patients with episodic migraine (0 to 14 migraine days per month) and is being studied for the preventative treatment of migraine globally. Topiramate is an approved medication for migraine prevention. This study is conducted in 2 periods. In Period 1, participants will be randomly put into 1 of 2 groups at the start of the study to receive atogepant or topiramate. In Period 2, eligible participants will receive atogepant. Approximately 520 participants aged 18 and older will be enrolled in this study in approximately 85 sites across the world. Participants will receive atogepant (and placebo for topiramate) or topiramate (and placebo for atogepant) for 24 weeks in Period 1. Both atogepant and placebo for atogepant are given as a tablet to take by mouth while topiramate and placebo for topiramate are given as a capsule to take by mouth. After 24 weeks, all eligible participants will receive atogepant for 52 weeks in Period 2. Participants are monitored for safety for 4 weeks after their last study treatment. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The safety and tolerability of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for adverse events and completing questionnaires.
Is dietary intake of advanced glycation different between individuals with and without migraine? Is there a difference between the groups in terms of energy and nutrients? The answers to these questions are sought.
A prospective study that investigates the impact of circadian rhythm disturbances due to daylight saving time transitions on migraine patients. The Primary aim is to investigate the impact of springtime DST (March 12 2023 at 2 AM on Sunday) on sleep metrics in patients with migraine headaches. Secondary aim is to examine the association between incidence of migraine headaches and sleep metrics with time transitions. Participants will be provided with a Withings non-wearable/contactless sleep tracker, which will be placed under the mattress for a period of 4 weeks (2 weeks before and 2 weeks after) during daylight saving time transition in March, 2023. Withings Health Mate app will be downloaded to the participant's smartphone to collect Sleep Data. Headache diaries will be provided to log the details of the migraines during the study period. Morningness - eveningness questionnaire (MEQ) will be used to categorize subjects on the chronotype spectrum.
The goal of this randomized control trial is to analyse the effectiveness of Physiotherapy intervention among university students with migraine symptoms. The main objective is: 1. To determine the effect of aerobic exercise on the resting-state brainwaves among university students in UTAR with migraine symptoms compared with biofeedback and control exercise. 2. To analyse the influence of aerobic exercise on the sleep quality and quality of life among the cohort compared with biofeedback and control exercise. Although the Migraine Research Foundation listed three main types of non-drug treatments for migraine are lifestyle advice, therapies, and exercises. Some common aerobic exercises such as walking, jogging, a behavioral weight loss program, cycling, and a combination of cross-training, walking, jogging, and cycling are suggested to be beneficial to the migraine patients but there remains no specific protocol established till now. Hence the other main objective of this is to establish a aerobic exercise protocol for patients with migraine symptoms.
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the relationships between sex hormone levels and experimental pain sensitivity and migraine severity will be examined.
The purpose of this study is to see how well blocking two to ten of the scalp nerves (that give feeling to the scalp and are painful during migraine headaches) with bupivacaine anesthetic (numbing medication) and low dose methylprednisolone (cortisone-like medicine or steroid) work for treating and preventing migraines. Our hypothesis is that the pain of most episodic migraine headaches can be eliminated and prevented for months by blocking the nerves that give pain sensation during a migraine.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of using remote electrical neuromodulation, using the Nerivio ® device, to relieve pain associated with receiving onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox) injections for chronic migraine prevention.
Chronic migraine patients treated with OnabotulinumtoxinA may experience breakthrough headaches, especially toward the end of their 12-week therapy. The addition of a CGRPmAb could help in decreasing or eliminating these episodes, but this combination is considered "experimental" by many payers, which often leads to a denial of coverage. Currently, there is no reference in the literature or data to support the treatment of chronic migraine with OnabotulinumtoxinA and CGRPmAbs (Aimovig, Ajovy, Emgality or Vyepti) combination therapy. This has resulted in many patients and providers having to settle for one or the other. Investigators hopes to provide crucial data and findings to support the addition of CGRPmAb in some chronic migraine patients currently on monotherapy OnabotulinumtoxinA.
Migraine is a common, debilitating neurologic condition affecting more than 900 million individuals worldwide. Established treatments for migraine include medications, vitamin and herbal supplements, neuromodulation, and behavioral treatment strategies. This study aims to determine whether a novel, home-based behavioral approach, combined biofeedback-virtual reality therapy, can improve self-reported migraine-related outcomes in individuals living with chronic migraine. In this randomized, controlled pilot study, 50 adults with chronic migraine are randomized to the experimental group (frequent use of a heart rate variability biofeedback-virtual reality device plus standard medical care; n=25) or wait-list control group (standard medical care alone; n=25). The primary outcome is reduction in mean monthly headache days between groups at 12 weeks. Secondary outcomes include mean change in acute analgesic use frequency, depression, migraine-related disability, stress, insomnia, and catastrophizing between groups at 12 weeks. Tertiary outcomes include change in heart rate variability and device-related user experience measures.
