Objective: This study aimed to investigate whether the first onset of migraine episodes among primary healthcare patients in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is preceded by a highly stressful event, as well as to identify common potential triggers and relievers reported by these patients.

Background: Migraine is a prevalent and debilitating neurological disorder. The pathophysiology of migraine involves complex interactions between genetic, neurological, and environmental factors, including the trigeminovascular system and neuropeptides such as calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP).

Department of Clinical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Lund University, Getingevagen 4, Lund, 22185, Sweden.

Background: The purpose of this study was to examine whether there are sex differences in vasomotor responses and receptor localization of hormones and neuropeptides with relevance to migraine (vasopressin, oxytocin, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, amylin, adrenomedullin and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)) in human intracranial arteries.

Methods: Human cortical cerebral and middle meningeal arteries were used in this study. The tissues were removed in conjunction with neurosurgery and donated with consent.

Alterations in white matter (WM) microstructure are commonly found in migraine patients. Here, we employ a longitudinal study of episodic migraine without aura using diffusion MRI (dMRI) to investigate whether such WM microstructure alterations vary through the different phases of the pain cycle. Fourteen patients with episodic migraine without aura related with menstruation were scanned through four phases of their (spontaneous) migraine cycle (interictal, preictal, ictal and postictal).

Background: Functional neuroimaging studies indicate that central transmission of trigeminal pain may commence up to 48 h prior to the onset of headache. Whether these cyclic changes are associated with somatosensory alteration remains incompletely understood.

Methods: The present study aimed to investigate the temporal progression of somatosensory alterations preceding the onset of a migraine attack.
