Purpose: To determine whether alcohol intake is associated with occurrence of headaches on the following day.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study, adults with episodic migraine completed electronic diaries every morning and evening for at least six weeks in March 2016-October 2017. Every day, participants reported alcohol intake, lifestyle factors, and details about each headache. We constructed within-person fixed-effect models adjusted for time-varying factors to calculate odds ratios for the association between 1,2,3,4, or 5+ servings of alcohol and headache the following day. We also calculated the adjusted risk of headache the following day for each level of intake.
Results: Among 98 participants who reported 825 headaches over 4,467 days, there was a statistically significant linear association (p-trend = 0.03) between alcohol and headache the following day. Compared to no alcohol, 1-2 servings were not associated with headaches, but 5+ servings were associated with a 2.08-fold (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.16-3.73) odds of headache. The adjusted absolute risk of headaches was 20% (95%CI 19%-22%) on days following no alcohol compared with 33% (95%CI 22%-44%) on days following 5+ servings.
Conclusion: 1-2 servings of alcoholic beverages were not associated with higher risk of headaches the following day, but 5+ servings were associated with higher risk. KEY MESSAGES 1-2 servings of alcoholic beverages were not associated with a higher risk of headaches on the following day, but higher levels of intake may be associated with higher risk. Five or more servings were associated with 2.08 times (95% confidence interval 1.16-3.73 the odds of headache on the following day. The adjusted absolute risk of headaches was 20% (95%CI 19%-22%) on days following no alcohol consumption compared with 33% (95% CI 22%-44%) on days following 5+ servings.

Pharmacokinetics of Depemokimab Delivered by Safety Syringe Device or Autoinjector in Healthy Adults: A Phase I, Single-Dose Study.
Clin Pharmacol Drug Dev
January 2025
Clinical Research Unit, PPD, Austin, TX, USA.
Article Synopsis
- The study compared the bioavailability of the anti-interleukin-5 antibody depemokimab when delivered using a safety syringe device (SSD) versus an autoinjector (AI) in healthy adults.
- Both methods showed similar plasma concentration profiles and pharmacokinetic parameters, confirming that they are bioequivalent.
- Adverse events were minor and comparable between the two delivery methods, with headaches being the most common side effect, indicating both devices are safe for administering depemokimab.
Polydipsia Induced Acute Angle-Closure Crisis.
J Glaucoma
January 2025
Blanton Eye Institute, Houston Methodist Hospital, Houston, TX, USA.
We present a case of Acute Angle-Closure Crisis (AACC) precipitated by primary transient psychogenic polydipsia; we believe that our case is the first of its kind to be reported. A 74-year-old male presented to the emergency department with altered mental status due to acute-onset hyponatremia. Six days after admission, the patient noticed painful loss of vision in his right eye and an ipsilateral headache lasting 10-15 minutes.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground And Objectives: hyponatremia is a common in older and hospitalized patients, often caused by the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). This study compares the efficacy and safety of tolvaptan versus fluid restriction in patients with hyponatremia and SIADH.
Materials And Methods: an observational cohort study was conducted with 186 patients with hyponatremia (Na+ < 135 mmol/L) due to SIADH, treated at the Hospital Universitario de Pontevedra between 2015 and 2022.
Objective: This study aims to characterize concurrent nasal symptoms in a cohort of patients with non-rhinogenic headache (NRH) presenting to an otolaryngology clinic.
Study Design: A prospective cohort.
Setting: Single tertiary care institution.

Division of Interventional Neuroradiology, Department of Radiology (H.C., S.M., D.G.), University of Maryland Medical Center, Baltimore.
Background: Sex-specific differences in stroke risk factors, clinical presentation, and outcomes are well documented. However, little is known about real-world differences in transient ischemic attack (TIA) hospitalizations and outcomes between men and women.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of the 2016 to 2021 Nationwide Readmissions Database in the United States.
