2010Publisher Summary The chapter discusses the mechanisms of tension-type headache (TTH). Tension-type headaches (TTHs) are very prevalent and responsible for substantial costs for both the individual and society. In contrast to migraine, no significant improvement in treatment possibilities has been seen in TTH within recent decades.

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2011
Tension-type headache (TTH) is a relatively featureless headache. Many primary and secondary headache disorders can mimic TTH, particularly in its chronic form, chronic tension-type headache. This review will address both primary and secondary disorders that can present with headaches phenotypically similar to TTH, and will focus on clinical pearls ...

Epidemiology of Tension-type Headache
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2010Tension-type headache (TTH) is the most prevalent type of headache across all age groups worldwide. TTH is common, disabling, and associated with medical and psychiatric comorbidities. This review will focus on the epidemiologies of episodic and chronic TTH in various age groups, factors associated with progression and remission, comorbidities, and the

Pathophysiology of tension-type headache
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2005Tension-type headache is one of the most common primary headache disorders. Advances in basic pain and clinical research have improved our understanding of pathophysiologic mechanisms of tension-type headache. Increased excitability of the central nervous system generated by repetitive and sustained pericranial myofascial input may be responsible for ...

[The myth of tension-type headache].
Revista de neurologia, 2014Tension-type headache is an entity recognised by the International Headache Society in its International Headache Classification. The limits of this condition, however, are somewhat fuzzy and poorly defined, and its diagnostic criteria are a sort of negation of the symptoms of migraine.

Burden of tension-type headache
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2006Epidemiology of headache has been the subject of increased attention recently. It appears that the overall human and financial cost of headache is considerable. Moreover, when the comorbidity and indirect implications of headache are taken into account, the result can be staggering.

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2009
Tension-type headache is the most common headache type worldwide. Chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) affects 2% to 3% of patients, yet it represents the least talked about subtype of chronic daily headache. There is much debate in the headache community on whether CTTH exists as its own entity or is a milder form of chronic migraine (CM), because ...

Pharmacoprophylaxis of tension-type headache
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2005Although tension-type headache typically is not as disabling as migraine, its chronic form may significantly impair patients' functional ability. The pathogenesis of tension-type headache remains largely unknown. Compared with migraine, tension-type headache is the object of much less research.

Pharmacotherapy of tension-type headaches
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2002The first International Headache Society classification defined tension-type headaches by itemizing characteristics of migraines that tension-type headaches did not possess. As a result, tension-type headaches (episodic and chronic) remain the most nonspecific of all the commonly observed primary headaches. Until recently, there has been little impetus
