OBJECTIVES: It has previously been shown that the peptide (34Pro,35Phe)CGRP27-37 is a potent calcitonin gene-related peptide, CGRP receptor antagonist, and in this project we aimed to improve the antagonist potency through the structural modification of truncated C-terminal CGRP peptides. METHODS: Six peptide analogues were synthesized and the anti-CGRP activity confirmed using both in vitro and in vivo studies. KEY FINDINGS: A 10 amino acid-containing peptide VPTDVGPFAF-NH2 (P006) was identified as a key candidate to take forward for in vivo evaluation, where it was shown to be an effective antagonist after intraperitoneal injection into mice...

BACKGROUND: Dihydroergotamine (DHE), like triptans, is contraindicated in patients with ischemic heart disease or coronary vasospasm. Its true safety, tolerability, and efficacy in patients with cardiovascular risk without ischemic heart disease or coronary vasospasm remain unclear. OBJECTIVES: To assess the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of repetitive intravenous DHE in patients with cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS: A single-center, retrospective cohort study was conducted at the Jefferson Headache Center inpatient unit for refractory chronic migraine patients treated with our intravenous DHE protocol between January 1, 2019, and October 15, 2019...

BACKGROUND: Migraine is a neurovascular disease that can cause ocular and systemic ischemic damage. Despite from aura, a limited number of studies have considered the effect of the chronic migraine in cases without aura. Our aim was to evaluate the differences in the retinal and optic disc microvasculature among episodic and chronic migraine cases without aura using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging. METHODS: 45 cases with migraine, and 25 control subjects were included in this prospective, cross-sectional study...

INTRODUCTION: Migraine is a neurologic condition characterized by hypersensitivity to auditory, olfactory, visual, and cutaneous stimuli; vomiting and nausea; and severe headache. It is the most frequent headache syndrome in children and can be categorized in chronic and/or episodic. Multiple dietary supplements have been inaugurated for the management of migraine, the most prevalent of which is vitamin D. BACKGROUND: In recent years, vitamin D deficiency has been a global public health problem, with 30-80% of the worldwide population having vitamin D deficiency...

BACKGROUND: Girls and women are more frequently affected by headache than boys and men. The influence of gender on the effectiveness of headache therapies has so far been hardly investigated. We examined gender differences in the outpatient multimodal Dresden Child and Adolescent Headache Program DreKiP. METHODS: We treated 140 patients with primary headache in a 15-hour structured group program. At baseline (T0) and six (T1) and twelve months (T2) after the end of the program, data on headache-related limitation of daily activities (PedMIDAS) as well as headache frequency, intensity, and pain-related disability (P-PDI) were collected...

BACKGROUND: Pharmacological treatment is the primary approach in chronic migraine (CM), although non-drug interventions such as physical therapy are used as adjunct treatments. We aimed to review the efficacy of physical therapy and rehabilitation approaches for CM and their impact on quality of life (QoL) and disability. METHODS: This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in adults with CM...

Previous studies have suggested that there are sex differences in the treatment and outcome of neurological emergencies; however, research identifying the role these sex differences play in the management of neurological emergencies is lacking. More knowledge of the way sex factors into the pathophysiology of neurological emergencies will be helpful in improving outcomes for these patients. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to assess the prevalence and management of neurological emergencies while evaluating sex differences in the diagnosis and treatment of these emergencies...

BACKGROUND: The relationship between migraine and breast cancer risk has generated conflicting findings. We attempted to assess the association between migraine and breast cancer risk using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. METHODS: We selected genetic instruments associated with migraine from a recently published genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Inverse variant weighted (IVW) analysis was adopted as the main method, and we also performed the weighted-median method and the MR‒Egger, MR pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO), and MR Robust Adjusted Profile Score (MR-RAPS) methods as supplements...

OBJECTIVE: To explore and critically appraise the evidence supporting the role of estrogen withdrawal in menstrual migraine. MAIN BODY: Menstrual migraine, impacting about 6% of reproductive-age women, manifests as migraine attacks closely related to the menstrual cycle. The estrogen withdrawal hypothesis posits that the premenstrual drop in estrogen levels serves as a trigger of migraine attacks. Despite its wide acceptance, the current body of evidence supporting this hypothesis remains limited, warranting further validation...

BACKGROUND: Homocysteine (Hcy) is an endogenous nonprotein sulfur-containing amino acid biosynthesized from methionine by the removal of its terminal methyl group. Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) has been linked to many systemic disorders, including stroke, proteinuria, epilepsy, psychosis, diabetes, lung disease, and liver disease. The clinical effects of high serum Hcy level, also known as hyperhomocysteinemia, have been explained by different mechanisms. However, little has been reported on the clinical and laboratory findings and etiologies of genetic HHcy in children...

INTRODUCTION: Overuse of medication to treat migraine attacks can lead to development of a new type of headache or significant worsening of pre-existing headache, known as medication overuse headache. However, data concerning the burden of medication overuse (MO) in migraine are limited. This study aimed to assess the humanistic burden of MO in individuals with migraine from five European countries. METHODS: Data are from the 2020 National Health and Wellness Survey-a cross-sectional, population-based survey conducted in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK...

BACKGROUND: Since the first description of nummular headache (NH), more than 500 cases have been described, delineating its clinical phenotype and response to treatment. However, data on the natural history of NH and outcomes during long-term follow-up are not currently available. The present study aimed to describe the long-term outcomes and follow-up of a large series of patients with NH. METHODS: A descriptive observational ambisective study with a series of cases was conducted...
