Investigating Brain Function in People With and Without Visual Snow Syndrome Using Adaptation to Visual Stimuli
The goal of this study is to learn more about the brain pathways and activity involved in creating Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does VSS arise from spontaneous activity in brain pathways? Where in the brain does the activity contributing to VSS arise? …
The Effect of Osteopathic Treatment on Craniocervico-Mandibular Dysfunction
The goal of this clinical trial is to measure the effects of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) on tissues of the craniocervico-mandibular unit (CCMU) in individuals with neck pain and headaches. The main questions to answer are: How does OMT affect CCMU muscle stiffness How does OMT affect jaw motion How …
Symptom Exacerbation Following Mental Imagery in Patients With Persistent Post-Concussive Symptoms
Background: Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) often results in persistent emotional, cognitive, and somatic symptoms-such as headaches and dizziness. These symptoms impose a significant burden, yet their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Predictive processing theories suggest that persistent symptoms may result from learned perceptual errors, particularly in individuals with high negative …
Scapular Muscle Activation and Shoulder Performance in Migraine
Migraine is a significant health problem due to its high prevalence and substantial contribution to disability. Individuals with migraine have been reported to exhibit myofascial trigger points, increased pain sensitivity, and altered muscle activation patterns, particularly in the trapezius muscles. As the upper and middle trapezius muscles play critical roles …
A Comparison of Biodegradable and Metal Occluders in Patients With PFO and Migraine
Migraine is one of the most common chronic neurological disorders, posing a significant global public health concern. Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is the most common congenital heart anomaly in adults. Mechanisms linking PFO to migraine include cortical spreading depression, vascular active substance theory, impaired cerebral autoregulation, and genetic susceptibility. Understanding …
Neurophysiological and Biomolecular Effects of Atogepant in Episodic Migraine
The investigators aim to assess and compare neurophysiological and biochemical changes induced by a 3-month treatment with atogepant (60 mg daily) in patients with high-frequency episodic migraine (8-14 monthly migraine days). Evaluations will include neurophysiological assessments (High-Density EEG, nociceptive reflexes, and visual evoked potentials) and biomolecular profiling (gene expression of …
Endometriosis and Migraine
This study aims to determine differences in experimental pain and sex hormone levels between patients with migraine, patients with endometriosis, patients with migraine and endometriosis, and healthy controls. Participants will complete surveys, experimental pain paradigms and collection of samples for hormone analyses.
VICO-trial: Video Consultations in the Follow-up of Children With Functional Abdominal Pain Disorders
The goal of this non-inferiority randomized controlled multi-center trial is to investigate the use of video consultations in the follow-up care of children aged 4 - 18 years old with functional abdominal pain disorders (FAPDs). Video consultations will be compared to face-to-face consultations. Clinical outcomes and patients' and parents' healthcare …
Molecular Phenotyping of Migraine Patients According to Sex and Age Through CGRP Quantification
Patients will be asked to visit the study center 2 times, the first time for clinical assessment and a second time for sample collection. Healthy controls will only be asked to visit the study center for sample collection. A sample of blood and saliva will be collected in order to …
High-field MR Imaging in Migraine, Visual Snow and Epilepsy
In this project, the aim is to recruit patients with drug resistant epilepsy and those suffering from migraine. Interestingly, patients suffering from epilepsy are also more often reporting to suffer from migraine. The pathobiology is understudied, but it is believed that both etiologies results from brain networks changes. A clinical …
