Disease relevance of Headache

 

High impact information on Headache

  • In support, there is a clear association between the head pain and the release of the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) from the trigeminovascular system [6].
  • CSF volume depletions, whether from leak or shunt overdrainage, typically cause low CSF opening pressures, orthostatic headaches, and diffuse pachymeningeal gadolinium enhancement on MRI [7].
  • Experimental cranial pain elicited by capsaicin: a PET study [8].
  • MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Relief of head pain and recurrence of successfully treated headache [9].
  • INTERVENTIONS: Patients with moderate or severe head pain were randomized to receive either 1 mg of subcutaneous dihydroergotamine mesylate or 6 mg of subcutaneous sumatriptan succinate [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Headache

 

Biological context of Headache

 

Anatomical context of Headache

 

Gene context of Headache

  • Based on experimental findings, it can be postulated that reduced CSF levels of GDNF and somatostatin in both CM and PCM + PAAH patients can contribute to sustained central sensitization underlying chronic head pain [21].
  • The evidence supports a role for NGF related mechanisms in inflammatory vascular head pain [22].
  • In this review, we summarize the literature on the clinical features of headache in ischemic cerebrovascular disease (Part I) and elaborate upon the underlying mechanisms of the head pain (Part II--December issue) [23].
  • Hemicrania continua responds to cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors [24].
  • Emergency department physicians, however, diagnosed only 32% of the respondents with migraine, while 59% were diagnosed as having "cephalgia" or "headache NOS" (not otherwise specified) [25].
