BACKGROUND No study has investigated the impacts of migraine on depression, anxiety, and somatic symptoms and remission at the two-year follow-up point among patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). This study aimed to investigate the above issues. METHODS Psychiatric outpatients with MDD recruited at baseline were investigated at a two-year follow-up (N = 106). The Hamilton Depression ...

objectives: to report a case of somatoform disorder (not otherwise specified-nos). methods: the patient was an eight-year-old boy who complained of anxiety and seeing visual hallucinations of colorful shapes. he was administered ant migraine and antiepileptic drugs. however, no changes were observed. psychotherapy was started, as well as fluoxetine (20 mg per day). initial assessments included ...

Migraine, a widespread and incapacitating neurological disorder, affects numerous individuals worldwide, causing severe headaches impairing their quality of life. The interplay genetic, environmental, neurovascular factors underlies the pathophysiology migraine. This report highlights case 25-year-old woman with recurrent, headaches, predominantly in right frontal temporal regions. She was diag...

OBJECTIVE Previous studies on the association between migraine and the risk of developing hemorrhagic stroke (HS) have generated inconsistent results. The aim of the present population-based, age- and sex- matched follow-up study was to investigate whether migraine is associated with an increased risk of HS. METHOD A total of 20925 persons with at least two ambulatory visits in 2001 with the ...

Migraine is a common, disabling, and undertreated episodic brain disorder that is more common in women than in men. Unbiased genome-wide association studies have identified 13 migraine-associated variants pointing at genes that cluster in pathways for glutamatergic neurotransmission, synaptic function, pain sensing, metalloproteinases, and the vasculature. The individual pathogenetic contributi...

Chronic pain conditions are multifactorial disorders with a high frequency in the population. Their pathophysiology is often unclear, and treatment is inefficient. During the last 20years, genetic linkage analysis and association studies have made considerable strides toward identifying key molecular contributors to the onset and maintenance of chronic pain. Here, we review the genetic variants...

Abstract Background Migraine is one of the most prevalent and disabling primary headache disorders. has many triggers factors as stress irregular sleep pattern. Medical study in Egypt so stressful with great psychological physical burden; hence medical students are vulnerable to migraine. This aims determine prevalence, characteristics, degree disability, associated migraine among at different ...

Menière's disease and vestibular migraine (VM) are the most common causes of spontaneous recurrent vertigo. The current diagnostic criteria for the two disorders are mainly based on patients' symptoms, and no biological marker is available. When applying these criteria, an overlap of the two disorders is occasionally observed in clinical practice. Therefore, the present prospective multicenter ...

BACKGROUND Migraine, a common chronic-intermittent disorder among reproductive age women, has emerged as a novel risk factor for adverse perinatal outcomes. Diagnostic reliability of self-report of physician-diagnosed migraine has not been investigated in pregnancy cohort studies. We investigated agreement of self-report of physician-diagnosed migraine with the diagnostic criteria promoted by t...
