Filter by:As the second phase of our study on migraine headaches and neurofeedback mindfulness, we will explore how chronic migraineurs will benefit from a long term practice (8 weeks) of neurofeedback mindfulness compared to a similar attention group and a waitlisted group. This randomized controlled trial will also explore if migrianuers could decrease their dependence on medicine intake after completion of the study.
To assess the 6-months effects and safety of stellate ganglion block(SGB) for Chronic Migraine (CM) patients who failure to undergo preventive therapy and are seeking a more suitable non-pharmacological therapy.
1. To correlate serum 25(OH)-vitamin D level with duration, frequency, and severity of migraine headache attacks 2. To evaluate the relationship between the serum level of vitamin D and other indices in patients with migraine. 3. To correlate the serum level of glutamate with gene expression of in migraine
This study is a single-center, randomized, double-blind controlled study. Patients will be randomly assigned to two groups by envelope drawing. The subjects will be divided into two groups: the acute intervention group and the preventive intervention group. In each group, the subjects will be randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group by means of envelope extraction. Children and adolescents (7-20 years old) with migraine who met the inclusion criteria will be enrolled as subjects in the experimental group, and the changes in headache scores before and after the intervention will be compared. The intervention method is as follows: ictal intervention, in which subjects will be evaluated for headache improvement after a short intervention during an acute exacerbation. By wearing a vagus stimulator, the stimulating electrode will be located in the concha region rich in vagus nerve fiber endings, and the appropriate stimulation intensity will be adjusted for stimulation. Therefore, this study will verify the effect of nVNS on the acute attack and preventive treatment of primary headache in children and adolescents. Based on the electrocardiogram and electromyography indicators during the intervention process of nVNS, an objective evaluation system for the improvement of headache by nVNS is established, and the role of stimulation parameters on the effect is further explored to realize the optimization of parameters.
Aim: The purpose of this study is to compare serum magnesium levels between patients with migraine and a control group and to examine the relationship between the frequency and duration of attacks in patients with migraine and mean serum magnesium levels. Material-Method: Patients diagnosed presenting to the Balıkesir University Medical Faculty pediatric neurology clinic between 01.09.2019 and 01.04.2023 and diagnosed with migraine were enrolled retrospectively. Patients diagnosed with migraine were included as the study group and healthy children presenting to the pediatric neurology clinic in the same period as the control group. The demographic characteristics (age, sex, and body mass index) of the patient group and their clinical (attack durations and frequencies, symptoms during attacks, and treatments) and laboratory (hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet, glucose, calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, folate and ferritin levels) characteristics were recorded.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of erenumab on medication-specific treatment satisfaction in patients newly started on erenumab over 12 weeks
Migraine, a chronic intermittent headache disorder, ranks in the top five causes of years lived with disability. One promising non-pharmacologic and integrative treatment for migraine may be chiropractic care due to the co-occurrence of migraine and musculoskeletal complaints. The goal of this application is to perform a pilot study of chiropractic care for episodic migraine to help inform the design of a future, full-scale pragmatic effectiveness trial.
The goal of this observational study is to estimate the frequency of neuropathic pain and migraines in a group of patients with osteoarthritis of the knees, hips, hands, spine or other joints. In addition to their usual care for osteoarthritis, participants will complete questionnaires to define migraine and neuropathic pain.
Migraine is one of the most common chronic neurological disorders, posing a significant global public health concern. Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is the most common congenital heart anomaly in adults. Mechanisms linking PFO to migraine include cortical spreading depression, vascular active substance theory, impaired cerebral autoregulation, and genetic susceptibility. Understanding these mechanisms holds promise for overcoming challenges in the prevention and treatment of migraines in PFO patients. At least 11 observational studies, comprising 1,632 subjects, described the efficacy of PFO closure in cryptogenic stroke. Of these, 34% had migraines, and percutaneous PFO closure reportedly reduced migraine days by 81% (with a reduction of over 50% in monthly migraine days). Prospective randomized controlled trials (PRIMA and PREMIUM trials) assessing the Amplatzer® PFO Occluder showed significant benefits in most secondary endpoints, with a pooled analysis indicating its safety and effectiveness compared to medical therapy.While traditional metal PFO closure studies suggest symptom relief, reports also mention potential new-onset or worsened migraines post-closure. Proposed mechanisms include platelet activation, microthrombus formation, nickel allergy, and septal deformation or stretching inducing the release of migraine-related vascular active substances. However, these theories are closely tied to the presence of permanent metal implants. Addressing these concerns, the MemoSorb® biodegradable PFO Occluder system, approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in September 2023, offers an innovative solution. Developed collaboratively by the National Biomedical Materials Engineering Technology Research Center, Professor Wang Yunbing's team, Professor Pan Xiangbin's team from Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, and HeartTech Medical, this groundbreaking technology represents a shift from metal to degradable materials. The occluder serves as a temporary bridge post-implantation, gradually degrading with endothelialization, facilitating comprehensive self-repair. This intervention concept theoretically avoids the lifelong complications associated with traditional metal occluders, effectively reducing postoperative symptoms like migraines and dizziness. To assess and compare the treatment outcomes, especially in relieving migraines, a prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled study has been designed for patients with patent foramen ovale and migraine, comparing the novel biodegradable occluder with the metal occluder.
This is a retrospective survey-study to assess the accessibility, preference, and frequency of adolescents using Nerivio by itself, in combination with pharmacological medications, or not at all, in the school setting. The study population is prescribed Nerivio users, under the age of 18 years old, who have used the Nerivio device at least once. The study will be conducted electronically, and will include eligibility questions, an electronic informed consent form signed by the parent/legal guardian (e-ICF), an assent form signed by the adolescent patient (e-Assent), and an e-survey relating to the management of headaches due to migraine attacks. Participants will be recruited from Nerivio's userbase and will be compensated for their participation.
