Non ‐Pharmacological Treatment for Primary Headaches Prevention and Lifestyle Changes in a Low‐Income Community of Brazil: A Randomized Clinical Trial
ConclusionsNon ‐pharmacological interventions such as physical activity and relaxation are effective for reducing headaches, while combining such interventions promote health behavior toward higher physical activity levels in low‐income populations with primary headaches.Clinical Trial Registration number: SGPP 1544.

Clinical Features Contributing to Cortical Thickness Changes in Chronic Migraine – A Pilot Study
ConclusionCM patients have significantly greater cortical covariance compared to controls. Cortical thickness in CM patients was predominantly accounted for by CM duration, PTSD, and poor sleep quality, while improved pain self ‐efficacy buffered cortical thickness. While it is important to address all CM features and comorbidities, it may be useful to emphasize optimizing the management of certain clinical features that contribute to cortical abnormalities including managing PTSD, early management to shorten duration of CM, and improving pain self‐efficacy and sleep quality.

Analysis of Initial Nonresponders to Galcanezumab in Patients With Episodic or Chronic Migraine: Results From the EVOLVE ‐1, EVOLVE‐2, and REGAIN Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Studies
ConclusionsGalcanezumab ‐treated patients with episodic or chronic migraine without response following 1 or 2 months of treatment appear to have a reasonable likelihood of continued improvement in months following initial treatment and this opportunity is more likely in patients showing greater early improvements. While a small percentage of patients with episodic or chronic migraine who experienced worsening in the number of MHD following initial treatment responded with continued treatment, most do not show substantial reduction in MHD. Overall benefit of therapy should be determined collaboratively between the patien...

Gabapentin and Tricyclics in the Treatment of Post ‐Concussive Headache, a Retrospective Cohort Study
ConclusionsPatients recover from a concussion with time, regardless of medication. Gabapentin and TCAs appear to have immediate effects on improving symptom burden, but long ‐term outcomes show similar improvement compared to those who are not prescribed medication. More rigorous prospective studies are required to better elucidate their efficacy. (Source: Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain)

The Effect of Beginning Treatment With Fremanezumab on Headache and Associated Symptoms in the Randomized Phase 2 Study of High Frequency Episodic Migraine: Post ‐Hoc Analyses on the First 3 Weeks of Treatment
ConclusionFremanezumab treatment resulted in a rapid preventive response in patients with HFEM, with reductions seen in several headache parameters and migraine symptoms within the first week after therapy initiation and continuing during the second and third weeks. Patients also were able to rapidly reduce their use of acute medications to treat migraine attacks. The trial is registered at Clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02025556.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Pediatric Headache and Migraine: Why to Prescribe and What New Research Is Critical for Advancing Integrated Biobehavioral Care
Purpose of ReviewTo highlight current evidence supporting the prescription of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as part of first ‐line preventive treatment for children and adolescents with headache and discuss a research strategy aimed at: (1) understanding how and why CBT works, and (2) developing effective and efficient approaches for integrating CBT into headache specialty, neurology, and primary care settings.Recent FindingsAlthough preventive medications for pediatric headache and migraine are commonly prescribed, recent meta ‐analyses and an NIH‐funded, multi‐center clinical trial suggests that the effect o...

A New Perspective of Migraine Symptoms in Patients With Congenital Heart Defect
ConclusionThis study revealed several associations between migraine and CHDs, especially the large ratio of closure device size to defect size. High ‐quality randomized controlled trials and animal studies are needed to further investigate and clarify the underlying association between CHDs and migraine.
