Silent subcortical brain infarction
Introduction: The silent brain lesions detected by MRI were fairly common not only in first-ever stroke but also in normal elderly subjects. Some recent studies show the possible role of silent sub-cortical brain infarction in ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of silent sub-cortical brain infarction in acute first-ever ischemic stroke. Methods: In this descrip...
متن کاملBrain stimulation in migraine.
Migraine is a very prevalent disease with great individual disability and socioeconomic burden. Despite intensive research effort in recent years, the etiopathogenesis of the disease remains to be elucidated. Recently, much importance has been given to mechanisms underlying the cortical excitability that has been suggested to be dysfunctional in migraine. In recent years, noninvasive brain stim...
متن کاملHistamine in migraine and brain.
BACKGROUND Histamine has been studied in both health and disease since the initial description a century ago. With its vasodilative effect, it was suggested early on to be involved in the pathophysiology of migraine. Over the past 25 years, much has been learned about histamine as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. The role of this neurotransmitter system in migraine has not been...
متن کاملStructural brain changes in migraine.
CONTEXT A previous cross-sectional study showed an association of migraine with a higher prevalence of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-measured ischemic lesions in the brain. OBJECTIVE To determine whether women or men with migraine (with and without aura) have a higher incidence of brain lesions 9 years after initial MRI, whether migraine frequency was associated with progression of brain l...
متن کاملCessation of Migraine after Thalamic Infarction
The thalamus is a key center in migraine: nociceptive signals are conveyed there from the trigeminal brainstem nuclear complex. Not surprisingly, it is activated during the acute attack and some drugs like triptanss or propanolol elicit their pain-relief effect by locally activating thalamic neurons. By the same token, thalamic structural lesions could potentially modify the course of this diso...
