Migraine, cortical excitability and evoked potentials: a clinico-pharmacological perspective.
Coppola et al., (2005) studied somatosensory evoked highfrequency oscillations (HFO) in migraine patients between attacks and advances the hypothesis that the habituation deficit in migraine patients is owing to a reduced pre-activation level of sensory cortices. While further proposing that a reduced interictal excitation (‘pre-activation’) level might be the pathophysiological basis of migrai...
متن کاملAssessing cortical excitability in migraine: reliability of magnetic suppression of perceptual accuracy technique over time.
OBJECTIVES To examine test-retest reliability of magnetic suppression of perceptual accuracy (MSPA) prior to its use as a marker of cortical excitability in a trial of migraine prophylactic agents. BACKGROUND MSPA is a relatively novel avenue of research in headache, providing an opportunity to study cortical responsiveness objectively and noninvasively. However, little is known about the rel...
متن کاملMotor cortical excitability in schizophrenia.
BACKGROUND Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) provides a method to examine cortico-cortical motor excitability and hemispheric asymmetry in unmedicated and medicated schizophrenia patients. METHODS Fourteen right-handed schizophrenia patients (seven on conventional neuroleptics and seven medication-free) were compared with seven right-handed, age- and gender-matched normal control subjec...
متن کاملP141: The Role of Microglia in Cortical Spreading Depression in Migraine
Migraine is a disorder that afflicts nearly one tenth of the population. Involving both nervous and vascular system, it has been found as a prominent factor of disability. The migraine attacks may be initiated in the brainstem or may begin peripherally in the meninges while the role of cortical activation preceding an attack is also debated. Although available treatments, more studies on migrai...
متن کاملChronic migraine in women.
Chronic migraine is a frequent, severely disabling headache that often evolves from EM. Treatment should be individualized with consideration of the patient as a whole person rather than just the headaches. Many options have been used for acute and preventive pharmacologic management, although good scientific and clinical evidence is limited to a few options. Evidence supports the efficacy and ...
