The effect of surgical weight loss on morbidly obese patients with MH provides a unique opportunity to evaluate this potential association. METHODS We analyzed

An association between obesity and migraine has been observed in recent studies and it is supported by plausible biological mechanisms. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of frovatriptan and other triptans in the acute treatment of migraine, in patients enrolled in three

Here we aimed at determining the therapeutic effect of a very low-calorie diet in overweight episodic migraine patients during a weight-loss intervention in which subjects alternated randomly between a very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) and a very low-calorie non-ketogenic diet (VLCnKD) each

Summarizing the previous sections, we have demonstrated that the gastric accommodation reflex in man involves the release of serotonin and the activation of a nitrergic motor neuron. We observed that almost half of the patients with functional dyspepsia have an impaired accommodation reflex, and

Vestibular migraine is considered to be the second most common cause of vertigo and the most common cause of spontaneous episodic vertigo. The duration of attacks varies from seconds to days, usually lasting minutes to hours, and they mostly occur independently of headaches. Long-lasting individual

OBJECTIVE White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) were often found in migraine patients. The aim of study was to characterize WMHs, assess their prevalence, determine relationship to clinical symptoms and homocysteine levels in migraine females. METHODS 69 women 38 with migraine without aura (MO), 31
