متن کاملHeadache (chronic tension-type).
INTRODUCTION Chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) is a disorder that evolves from episodic tension-type headache, with daily, or very frequent, episodes of headache lasting hours or they may be continuous. It affects up to 4% of the general population, and is more prevalent in women (up to 65% of cases). METHODS AND OUTCOMES We conducted a systematic overview, aiming to answer the following c...
متن کاملCentral sensitization in tension-type headache--possible pathophysiological mechanisms.
The aim of the present thesis was to investigate the pathophysiology of chronic tension-type headache with special reference to central mechanisms. Increased tenderness to palpation of pericranial myofascial tissues is the most apparent abnormality in patients with tension-type headache. A new piece of equipment, a so-called palpometer, that makes it possible to control the pressure intensity e...
متن کاملneuroimaging in outpatients with tension type headache
background: research into the role of neuroimaging in primary headaches such as tension type headache (tth) is ongoing. in the present study, we aim to evaluate the ability of neuroimaging to detect potential abnormalities in patients with new onset tth and normal neurological exam. materials and methods: in a prospective study, 294 cases of new onset tth with normal neurological exam, that had...
متن کاملNitric oxide-induced headache in patients with chronic tension-type headache.
An experimental model of headache offers unique possibilities to study the mechanisms responsible for head pain. Using the glyceryl trinitrate [GTN; nitric oxide (NO) donor] model of experimental headache, we studied the intensity, quality and time profile of headache after infusion of GTN in 16 patients with chronic tension-type headache and in 16 healthy controls. Subjects were randomized to ...
