Thank you for the great talk and sharing your practice experience with us @DrHopeMO

The authors developed a set of aura images (25 images) representing visual aura phenotypes (SMAI),and tested it in multicenter population of patients (n=215).SMAI can be used to describe and recognize migraine aura

Galcanezumab was effective in almost 50% of patients with refractory chronic cluster headache.
This finding could support individual off-label treatment attempt with Galcanezumab 240 mg without major safety risks.

#allodynia- sign of refractory migraine.

[American Migraine Foundation @amfmigraine]

Did you know heightened sensitivity to touch can be a symptom of migraine? Pain from a non-painful stimulation of the skin, such as brushing hair, is known as #allodynia. Learn about the possible causes and treatments for this lesser-known symptom:

This study analyzed patient-generated real-time records of 10 million #migraine attacks and conducted simultaneous comparisons of 25 acute migraine medications. Triptans, ergots, and antiemetics were found to be the most effective classes of medications: https://t.co/ZyBPKyBx7c

A higher prevalence of migraine is observed in mitochondrial diseases.
Mitochondrial dysfunction could be a factor in the chronification of migraine.
Sleep disorders have a bidirectionally relation to headache, independent of mitochondrial dysfunction.

Common comment I get from patients “a bottle of soda helps with my headache”. Important to note the recommended consumption of caffeine to avoid #dehydration which is a #migrainetrigger #Neurology #migraine

[American Migraine Foundation @amfmigraine]

Caffeine is a commonly reported #migrainetrigger, yet some people find it brings relief during an attack.

So, what’s the deal with caffeine and migraine? Its effects vary from person to person, but the key is often caffeine quantity. Learn more:

The #estrogen withdrawal hypothesis posits that the premenstrual drop in estrogen levels serves as a trigger of #migraine attacks. Despite its wide acceptance, the current body of evidence supporting this hypothesis remains limited: https://t.co/18DaWXcxJU
