Effect of Infusion of Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide on Cluster Headache Attacks: A Randomized Clinical Trial

JAMA Neurology, 2018
Importance Signaling molecule calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) induces migraine attacks and anti-CGRP medications abort and prevent migraine attacks. Whether CGRP provokes cluster headache attacks is unknown.

“What Medical Management Should Be First Line for Bladder Storage Symptoms in NLUTD”—Pro Botox

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) severely impairs patient quality of life (QoL). While oral medications are often first‐line treatments, their high failure rates and side effects limit their effectiveness. Thus, we argue for the use of intravesical botulinum toxin A (BoNT‐A) injections as a first‐line alternative ...

Methylation of migraine-related genes in different tissues of the rat [PDF]

, 2014
17β-Estradiol, an epigenetic modulator, is involved in the increased prevalence of migraine in women. Together with the prophylactic efficacy of valproate, which influences DNA methylation and histone modification, this points to the involvement of ...

Focal extracorporeal shockwave therapy in shoulder calcific tendinopathy: A retrospective observational study of sonographic prognostic factors

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To assess the potential prognostic role of sonographic parameters such as glenohumeral joint effusion, subacromial‐subdeltoid bursitis, and the type of intratendinous calcific deposition to predict the clinical and functional outcomes of focal extracorporeal shockwave therapy (fESWT) in patients with calcific tendinopathy of the ...

Calcitonin and Bone Physiology: In Vitro, In Vivo, and Clinical Investigations

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Calcitonin was discovered as a peptide hormone that was known to reduce the calcium levels in the systemic circulation. This hypocalcemic effect is produced due to multiple reasons such as inhibition of bone resorption or suppression of calcium release ...

Relief of pain associated with spasticity in adult patients after treatment with onabotulinumtoxinA: Post hoc observational results from the ASPIRE study

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pain is often observed in patients with spasticity, but little is known about the relationship between pain and spasticity and the effectiveness of treating pain with botulinum toxins in these patients. Objective To explore onabotulinumtoxinA (onabotA) use and pain relief in patients with spasticity with pain at baseline.

Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Level in Cystic Fibrosis Patients

Life
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has long been implicated in both the physiology and pathophysiology of the respiratory tract. The objective of our study was to determine the serum concentration of alpha CGRP (αCGRP) in cystic fibrosis (CF) that ...
