Abstract Computerized analysis and topographical mapping were performed on the EEGs of 28 migraine patients (17 without and 11 with typical aura) and an age and sex-matched control group of 28 subjects. Traditional visual EEG analysis revealed only a slight diffuse...

A preliminary report on hyperbaric oxygen in the relief of migraine headache.
Abstract: Oxygen inhalation was early advocated as a treatment for migraine headache. It has been theorized that the efficacy of raising blood oxygen levels in vascular headache is mediated by vasoconstriction and metabolic effects. Hyperbaric oxygen can provide a...
Vestibulo-ocular reflex in migraine patients: the effect of sodium valproate.
Abstract: We studied vestibulo-ocular reflex measurements in a group of 12 patients suffering from migraine without aura and evaluated the effect of sodium valproate given as prophylactic migraine therapy. The study was randomized, double blind and placebo controlled,...
EEG and topographic frequency analysis in common and classic migraine
Abstract Electroencephalographic (EEG) changes occurring in patients with migraine have received much attention. However, almost equal number of reports indicate the predominance of normal and abnormal findings. We studied the EEG in symptom-free, otherwise healthy,...
Recurrent classic migraine attacks following transdermal scopolamine intoxication.
Abstract: A 20 year old male naval crew-member suffering from sea sickness was treated with transdermal scopolamine (TS). After 5 months of continuous treatment, he developed scopolamine intoxication followed by the appearance of recurrent classic migraine attacks. He...
Cerebral mapping in subjects suffering from migraine with aura
Abstract Cerebral mapping of the spontaneous electroencephalographic activity was performed in 31 subjects suffering from migraine with aura and the results were compared with those of a matched control group. All the patients were examined during the interictal...
[Ergotism in migraine. Peripheral vascular complications in 14 patients with migraine].
Abstract: The general occurrence of subclinical ergotism with reduced peripheral systolic blood pressures in patients taking ergotaminepreparations regularly for migraine and the frequent occurrence of milder symptoms indicates that severe ischaemia of the extremities...
Unusual vascular events in the territory of the posterior cerebral artery.
Abstract: There is an unusual type of vascular episode in the territory of the posterior cerebral artery which remains relatively unknown. Ten cases are presented in which a posterior cerebral artery deficit developed suddenly in dramatic fashion with headache, visual...
