In countries where headache services exist at all, their focus is usually on specialist (tertiary) care. This clinically and economically inappropriate: most disorders can effectively more efficiently (and lower cost) be treated in educationally supported primary At the same time, compartmentalizing divisions between primary, secondary tertiary care many health-care systems create multiple inefficiencies, confronting patients attempting to navigate these levels (the "patient journey") with...
We present a prospective study of 240 patients with medication overuse headache (MOH) treated drug withdrawal and prophylactic medications. At 1-year follow-up, 137 (57.1%) were without chronic overuse, eight (3.3%) did not improve after 95 (39.6%) relapsed developing recurrent overuse. Age at time MOH diagnosis, regular use benzodiazepines, frequency Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) score headache, age onset primary MIDAS ergotamine compound daily intake significantly different...
Objective: Previous migraine studies have reported gray matter alterations in various cortical regions with conflicting results.This study aimed to explore a morphometric difference migraineurs aura (MA) compared healthy subjects (HS) and delineate possible between the morphological features different phenotypes.Materials Methods: Forty-eight MA 30 HS that were balanced by sex, age, educational level selected for this study.T2-weighted three-dimensional T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging...
Objective To evaluate long-term predictors of remission in patients with medication-overuse headache (MOH) by prospective cohort study. Background Knowledge regarding MOH outcome is limited. Methods Two hundred and forty recruited from 2000 to 2005 were included a one-year follow-up study then subsequently followed until 31 December 2013. The median was three years (interquartile range, years). Predictive values selected variables assessed the Cox proportional hazard regression model....
Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is an intraoral burning sensation for which no medical or dental cause can be found. Recent studies suggest that primary neuropathic dysfunction might involved in the pathogenesis of BMS. Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) plays important role development pain and serves as a biological marker trigeminovascular activation. The aim this study was to determine levels CGRP saliva BMS patients estimate activation were measured, by RIA method 78 16 healthy...
Introduction Aura occurs in 20–30% of patients with migraine. Some descriptions aura go far beyond the most frequent visual and sensory symptoms, suggesting involvement different cortical areas. The aim this prospective study was to evaluate frequency types disorders higher functions (HCF) that occur during and/or aura. Methods We interviewed 60 about HCF praxia, gnosia, memory, speech, Patients were divided into two groups, without disorders, compared terms demographic data characteristics....
The study was a collaboration between Lifting Burden (LTB) and the European Headache Federation (EHF). Its aim to evaluate implementation of quality indicators for headache care Europe-wide in specialist centres (level-3 according EHF/LTB standard). Employing previously-developed instruments 14 such centres, we made enquiries, each, health-care providers (doctors, nurses, psychologists, physiotherapists) 50 patients, analysed medical records other patients. Enquiries were 9 domains:...
Background: Cerebral small vessel disease is rarely described in association with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a hereditary connective tissue disorder skin, eye and vascular manifestations. This autosomally inherited elastic has been attributed to mutations the ABCC6 gene located on chromosome 16p13.1. Different stroke mechanisms are suggested PXE patients, arterial hypertension accelerated atherosclerosis being leading ones. Case Descriptions: 1: A 49-year-old man history of mild...
Introduction The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and clinical impact interictal microembolic signals (MES) in patients suffering from migraine with higher cortical dysfunction (HCD), such as language memory impairment, during an aura. Patients methods This carried out on 34 migraineurs impairment aura (HCD group), 31 only visual or somatosensory symptoms (Control group I), healthy controls II). We used a Doppler instrument detect microemboli. Demographic data, disease...
Background According to the I nternational C lassification of H eadache D isorders diagnostic criteria, differences between migraine and cluster headache ( CH ) are clear. In addition attack duration pain characteristics, symptoms accompanying represent key features in a differential diagnosis these 2 primary disorders. Just few studies patients with exist examining presence nausea, vomiting, photophobia, phonophobia, aura, commonly headache. The aim this study was determine migraine‐like MF...
Objectives: Headache is among most frequently encountered neurological symptom during hemodialysis (HD), but still under investigated in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence and clinical characteristics headache (DH) HD PD Material methods: A total 409 patients (91 on 318 HD) were interviewed using a structured questionnaire, designed according diagnostic criteria International Classification Disorders from 2004. Patients with DH underwent...
The age of onset cluster headache (CH) attacks most commonly is between 20 and 40 years old, although CH has been reported in all groups. There increasing evidence with early or late a different course the disorder. aim study was to analyze influence on clinical features, disorder course, therapy effectiveness patients.A retrospective cross-sectional analysis performed 182 patients divided into three groups according onset. first group consisted attack before age, second third after age....
Background: Manifestations of typical migraine aura can be numerous. Investigation its pathophysiological mechanisms challenging if a stratification phenotypes is not performed. In this context, the Migraine Aura Complexity Score (MACS), recently developed, may help. Here we aimed to categorize patients into homogenous groups using MACS and compare those with respect patient's characteristics neuroimaging findings. Methods: Participants who have (MwA) were interviewed after each attack in...
The utility of the differences between cluster headache (CH) and paroxysmal hemicrania (PH) is limited by considerable overlap their clinical characteristics. We compared 54 patients with CH eight PH in terms demographic features, characteristics attacks, associated autonomic temporal forms disorders, response to verapamil. According our results, features that distinguished were: maximal pain localization, ocular extra-ocular group; mean attack duration was longer frequency lower comparison...
Background/Aim. Etiology of ischemic stroke (IS) among young adults varies countries. The aim the study was to investigate causes and risk factors IS in Serbia. Methods. A total 865 patients with IS, aged 15 45 years, were treated throughout period 1989-2005. Etiologic diagnostic tests performed on patient by basis according their availability at time investigation. most likely cause categorized TOAST (Trial ORG 10172 Acute Stroke Treatment) criteria.

The aim of this study was to evaluate and analyze the incidence features headaches in patients undergoing hemodialysis.In prospective 318 patients, 119 women 199 men, chronic HD four hemodialysis centers Serbia, were questioned about their problems with using a questionary designed according diagnostic criteria International Headache Classification Disorders (ICHD) from 2004. Patients distributed two groups presence (HDH). compared regarding sex, age, duration HD, primary diseases that lead...
Currently, there is no scoring system for assessing the complexity of migraine aura. Our goal was to develop a Migraine Aura Complexity Score that synthesizes quantity and quality aura symptoms test its applicability in neuroimaging studies.Patients with were interviewed order obtain characteristics Explorative confirmatory analyses used Score. Median values derived from 10 consecutive auras each patient. The correlated an average cortical thickness different brain areas studied patients....
The brainstem plays a significant role in migraine pathogenesis, but relationship between volume alterations of subregions and aura characteristics has not been sufficiently investigated. aim this study is to compare the brainstem, its subregions, patients with (MwA) healthy controls (HC), also correlate MwA subregions. Forty-two 42 HCs, balanced by sex age, were selected for study. Total changes as well pons, medulla, midbrain superior cerebellar peduncles investigated relative HCs. In...
Background and Purpose Various features of the cerebral cortex white matter have been extensively investigated in migraine with aura (MwA), but morphological characteristics subcortical structures largely neglected.The aim this study was to identify possible differences between MwA patients healthy subjects (HS), also determine correlations volumes structures.Methods Thirty-two 32 HS matched by sex age were analyzed study.Regional brain automatically calculated using FSL/FMRIB Image...
