  • Headache: General Considerations CQ I-1
    I Headache: General Considerations CQ I-1 How is headache classified and diagnosed? Recommendation Headache should be classified and diagnosed according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition (beta version). Grade A Background and Objective In 2004, the International Headache Society (IHS) revised the first edition of the IHS guideline for the first time in 15 years, incorporating the latest advances in research, evidence and criticisms. The resulting document, International Classification of Headache Disorders 2nd Edition (ICHD-2) was published in Cephalalgia.1) In the same year, the ICHD-2 was translated into Japanese and published.2) From 2004, headache should be classified and diagnosed in accordance with the ICHD-2. The first recorded classification of headache was by Aretaeus (a physician born in 81 BC) of Cappadacia in the present day Turkey, who classified headaches into cephalalgia, cephalea, and heterocrania.3)-5) Heterocrania was described as “half head” headache, which is equivalent to migraine in the present day classification. The first consensus-orientated headache classification in history was the classification by the Ad Hoc Committee on Classification of Headache of the American Neurological Association (Ad Hoc classification) published in 1962.6) In this classification, headache was classified into 15 types, but no diagnostic criteria were included. In 1988, the Headache Classification Committee of the International Headache Society chaired by Olesen proposed the first international classification of headache disorders (IHS Classification,st 1 edition, 1988).7) The IHS Classificationst 1 edition first classified headache into 13 items, and further subdivided into 165 headache types. For each subtype, operational criteria were described.

Migraine affects a substantial fraction of world population and is a major cause of disability in the work place. Though the pathophysiology of migraine is still unclear three major theories proposed with regard to the mechanisms of migraine are vascular (due to cerebral vasodilatation), neurological (abnormal neurological firing which causes the spreading depression and migraine) and neurogenic dural inflammation (release of inflammatory neuropeptides). The modern understanding of the pathogenesis of migraine is based on the concept that it is a neurovascular disorder. The drugs used in the treatment of migraine either abolish the acute migraine headache or aim its prevention. The last decade has witnessed the advent of Sumatriptan and the Ftriptan_ class of 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonists which have well established efficacy in treating migraine. Currently prophylactic treatments for migraine include calcium channel blockers, 5-HT2 receptor antagonists, beta adrenoceptor blockers and g-amino butyric acid (GABA) agonists. Unfortunately, many of these treatments are non specific and not always effective. Despite such progress, in view of the complexity of the etiology of migraine, it still remains undiagnosed and available therapies are underused.

  • Migraine: Spectrum of Symptoms and Diagnosis
    KEY POINT: MIGRAINE: SPECTRUM A Most patients develop migraine in the first 3 OF SYMPTOMS decades of life, some in the AND DIAGNOSIS fourth and even the fifth decade. William B. Young, Stephen D. Silberstein ABSTRACT The migraine attack can be divided into four phases. Premonitory phenomena occur hours to days before headache onset and consist of psychological, neuro- logical, or general symptoms. The migraine aura is comprised of focal neurological phenomena that precede or accompany an attack. Visual and sensory auras are the most common. The migraine headache is typically unilateral, throbbing, and aggravated by routine physical activity. Cutaneous allodynia develops during un- treated migraine in 60% to 75% of cases. Migraine attacks can be accompanied by other associated symptoms, including nausea and vomiting, gastroparesis, di- arrhea, photophobia, phonophobia, osmophobia, lightheadedness and vertigo, and constitutional, mood, and mental changes. Differential diagnoses include cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoenphalopathy (CADASIL), pseudomigraine with lymphocytic pleocytosis, ophthalmoplegic mi- graine, Tolosa-Hunt syndrome, mitochondrial disorders, encephalitis, ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, and benign idiopathic thunderclap headache.
