INTRODUCTION: During an acute migraine attack, changes in ventricular repolarisation parameters may occur due to an imbalance in the autonomic nervous system. Tpeak-tend (Tp-e) interval, Tp-e/QT ratio, and Tp-e/corrected QT (QTc) ratio are novel parameters of arrhythmogenesis and can be easily calculated in electrocardiography (ECG). The objective of this study is to demonstrate that novel ventricular repolarisation parameters can anticipate the risk of ventricular dysrhythmia in the migraine attack period...

BACKGROUND: Because migraine is a common headache, finding ways to approach it better would be useful. So, studying the relation of dimensions of general health and personality types and pain severity in patients with migraine will be useful for fulfilling this aim. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, the number of patients with migraine headache studied in this study was 170. The checklists used in this study were migraine disability assessment (MIDAS), visual analog scale (VAS), Neuroticism-Extraversion-Openness (NEO FFI), and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28)...

BACKGROUND: Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is an autosomal dominantly inherited cerebral small vessel disease caused by Neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 3 (NOTCH3) gene mutations. The main clinical features include migraine with aura, recurrent ischemic strokes and dementia. Brain MRI typically shows multiple small lacunar infarcts and severe, diffuse, symmetrical white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), with characteristic involvement of the anterior temporal pole, external capsule, and superior frontal gyrus...

Arteriovenous malformation is a developmental anomaly of the vascular system characterized by arteriovenous shunt through a collection of tortuous vessels without intervening capillary bed. Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) may cause hemorrhagic stroke, epilepsy, and chronic headache. Migraine with aura was reported in up to 58% of females with AVM. A 23-year-old female presented with episodes of severe left-side headache for five months, throbbing in character with photophobia, phonophobia, and nausea...

Non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) has recently been suggested as a potential therapy for traumatic brain injury (TBI). We previously demonstrated that nVNS inhibits cortical spreading depolarization, the electrophysiological event underlying migraine aura, and is relevant to TBI. Our past work also suggests a role for interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in cognitive deficits after closed head injury (CHI) in mice. We show that nVNS pre-treatment suppresses CHI-associated spatial learning and memory impairment and prevents IL-1β activation in injured neurons, but not endothelial cells...

OBJECTIVE: Cortical spreading depolarization is highly conserved among the species. It is easily detectable in direct cortical surface recordings and has been recorded in the cortex of humans with severe neurological disease. It is considered the pathophysiological correlate of human migraine aura, but direct electrophysiological evidence is still missing. As signatures of cortical spreading depolarization have been recognized in scalp EEG, we investigated typical spontaneous migraine aura, using full band high-density EEG (HD-EEG)...

In the initial assessment of a headache patient, several dangerous secondary etiologies must be considered. A thorough history and physical examination, along with a comprehensive differential diagnosis may alert a physician to the diagnosis of a secondary headache particularly when it is accompanied by certain clinical features. Evaluation and workup include a complete neurological examination, consideration of neuroimaging, and serum/spinal fluid analysis if indicated. Careful attention to the patients' history and physical examination will guide the diagnostic work-up and management...

Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) are serine/threonine-selective proteins and ERK1/2 can be phosphorylated in peripheral and central brain regions after cortical spreading depolarization (CSD) and calcitonin gene-related peptide; However, it remains unclear about whether and how ERK activity modulates CSD that correlates to migraine aura. Here, we determined the role of ERK in regulating CSD and explored the underlying mechanism involving transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), a stress-sensing cation channel...

BACKGROUND: Sometimes migraine aura changes from attack to attack, raising the question of whether the change is heralding an ischemic stroke or an unusual aura. Differentiating unusual migraine aura from the onset of an acute ischemic stroke in patients with migraine with aura (MwA) can be challenging. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this cohort study was to assess clinical characteristics that help distinguish between MwA and minor stroke in patients with a previous history of MwA who presented with suspicion of stroke...
