Botulinum Toxin as Preventive Treatment for Migraine: A Randomized Double-Blind Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Aim: To determine if botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) injections can reduce the frequency and severity of migraines. Methods: Patients (n = 127) were randomized to receive placebo or two doses of BoNT-A (Dysport (R)). The primary endpoint was reduction in

Selectivity in genetic association with sub-classified migraine in women. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Migraine can be sub-classified not only according to presence of migraine aura (MA) or absence of migraine aura (MO), but also by additional features accompanying migraine attacks, e.g. photophobia, phonophobia, nausea, etc.

Evaluating Treatment Success in CGRP Antibody Prophylaxis: A Retrospective Cohort Study Comparing Monthly Migraine Days, MIDAS Scores, and HIT-6 Scores

open access: yesPain and Therapy
Introduction Monoclonal antibodies targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) or its receptor represent a major advance in migraine prevention. However, standardized criteria for assessing treatment response are lacking.

Early antiseizure response to cenobamate (200 mg/day) in focal drug-resistant epilepsy: a retrospective single-center analysis

open access: yesEpilepsy & Behavior Reports
Clinical studies have shown cenobamate (CNB) is effective for treating drug-resistant focal epilepsy. This study examines Polish patients with epilepsy, assessing the efficacy and safety of CNB at 200 mg/day and factors influencing early therapeutic ...

The Role of Calcitonin Gene‐Related Peptide in High‐Altitude Headache: A Prospective Field Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective High‐altitude headache (HAH) is a common neurological condition associated with rapid ascent to high altitude. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying HAH remain incompletely understood. Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide implicated in migraine pathophysiology, may play a key role in the pathophysiology of ...

Rizatriptan as an Over-the-Counter Triptan in the Treatment of Migraine Attacks

open access: yesPain and Therapy
Around 91% of migraine patients use over-the-counter medicines to treat attacks, often without further treatment or medical consultation. This therapeutic principle is established in most countries, regardless of how the healthcare system is otherwise ...

P/Q-type calcium-channel blockade in the periaqueductal gray facilitates trigeminal nociception: a functional genetic link for migraine? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The discovery of mis-sense mutations in the alpha1A subunit of the P/Q-type calcium channel in patients with familial hemiplegic migraine indicates the potential involvement of dysfunctional ion channels in migraine.

Memory and Resting‐State Connectivity in Acute Transient Global Amnesia: A Case–Control fMRI Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a striking model of isolated amnesia. While hippocampal lesions are well described, the network‐level mechanisms and the precise neuropsychological profile remain debated. Our objective was thus to characterize functional and neuropsychological correlates of acute TGA and their ...
