Migraine Is a NeurovascularDisorder
The genesis of migraine is neurologic
Likely that hyperexcitability of CNS confers susceptibility to migraine attacks
Migraine associated with regional reduction in cerebral blood flow and cortical spreading depression (CSD)
Trigeminovascular system involved in production of migraine pain
Aurora SK, Welch KMA. Curr Opin Neurol. 1998;11:205-209; Aurora SK, Welch KMA. Curr Opin Neurol. 2000;13:273-276.

Cause of MigrainesCause of Migraines
A single gene is responsible for familial hemiplegic migraine
Common migraine is polygenetic, which accounts for its variable expression
Multiple triggers modify the frequency and the severity of attacks
![Page 10: Advances in Migraine Alexander Mauskop, MD New York Headache Center.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110400/56649dbb5503460f94aaca02/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Neuronal Hyperexcitabilityin MigraineNeuronal Hyperexcitabilityin Migraine
Neuronal hyperexcitability predisposes individuals to migraine— Migraine patients visualized phosphenes following transcranial
magnetic stimulation
Increased neuronal hyperexcitability may be multifactorial— Abnormal calcium channels that influence presynaptic
neurotransmitter release
— Abnormal glutamate metabolism
— Deficiency of systemic and brain magnesium
Migraine may be prevented by reducing neuronal hyperexcitability— Inhibition of excitatory neurotransmission (eg, Na+ channel)
— Enhancement of inhibitory neurotransmission (eg, GABA)
Welch, et al. Neurol Clin. 1990;8:817-828; Aurora SK, Welch KMA. Curr Opin Neurol. 1998;11:205-209; Cutrer, et al. Cephalalgia. 1997;17:93-100.

Early Intervention May PreventCentral SensitizationEarly Intervention May PreventCentral Sensitization
Clinical experience suggest that migraineurs are most-responsive to medications within the initial 30-60 minutes of an attack.
The development of central hypersensitivity points to the need for the early use of anti-migraine drugs.

Benefits of Early TreatmentBenefits of Early Treatment
Early pain-free response
Less recurrence
Prevents progression of attack
Less disability
Less need for multiple doses and rescue meds
Effective early treatment may prevent chronic migraine
![Page 13: Advances in Migraine Alexander Mauskop, MD New York Headache Center.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110400/56649dbb5503460f94aaca02/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Sinus headache is the most common misdiagnosis
Symptoms include:
• Dull ache located near the nose
• Pressure in the sinus cavities
• Thick, colored nasal discharge
• OTCs can sometimes relieve the pain
Migraine Is Often Overlooked

Conclusions:
Magnesium retention occurs in patients with migraine
after oral loading, suggesting a systemic magnesium
deficiency

Summary of Development StudiesSummary of Development Studies
Results of initial studies using frontal injections are not definitive
—Improvement from baseline in migraine frequency and acute medication use in one study
—Patients perceived significant global improvement in both studies
—Safe and well tolerated in both studies
Future studies should employ alternative treatment approaches

Botulinum Toxin Type A: Cost in MigrainesBotulinum Toxin Type A: Cost in Migraines
A. M. Blumenfeld, Impact of Botulinum Toxin Type-A Treatemnt on Medication Costs and Usage in Difficult-to-Treat Chronic Headache: Case Studies.
Headache Quarterly 2002;13(1):241-244.
BTX-A-induced decreases in the frequency and/pr severity of chronic headaches led to decreased headache medication costs. A reduction in ED and office visits may provide further savings.
