Abstract
Migraine is a complex neurovascular disorder that is characterized by severe behavioral, sensory, visual, and/or auditory symptoms. It has been labeled as one of the ten most disabling medical illnesses in the world by the World Health Organization (Aagaard et al Sci Transl Med 6(237):237ra65, 2014). According to a recent report by the American Migraine Foundation (Shoulson et al Ann Neurol 25(3):252-9, 1989), around 148 million people in the world currently suffer from migraine. On the basis of presence of aura, migraine is classified into two major subtypes: migraine with aura (Aagaard et al Sci Transl Med 6(237):237ra65, 2014) and migraine without aura. (Aagaard K et al Sci Transl Med 6(237):237ra65, 2014) Many complex genetic mechanisms have been proposed in the pathophysiology of migraine but specific pathways associated with the different subtypes of migraine have not yet been explored. Various approaches including candidate gene association studies (CGAS) and genome-wide association studies (Fan et al Headache: J Head Face Pain 54(4):709-715, 2014). have identified the genetic markers associated with migraine and its subtypes. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (Kaur et al Egyp J Neurol, Psychiatry Neurosurg 55(1):1-7, 2019) within genes involved in ion homeostasis, solute transport, synaptic transmission, cortical excitability, and vascular function have been associated with the disorder. Currently, the diagnosis of migraine is majorly behavioral with no focus on the genetic markers and thereby the therapeutic intervention specific to subtypes. Therefore, there is a need to explore genetic variants significantly associated with MA and MO as susceptibility markers in the diagnosis and targets for therapeutic interventions in the specific subtypes of migraine. Although the proper characterization of pathways based on different subtypes is yet to be studied, this review aims to make a first attempt to compile the information available on various genetic variants and the molecular mechanisms involved with the development of MA and MO. An attempt has also been made to suggest novel candidate genes based on their function to be explored by future research.

Abstract
Introduction Migraine is a complex disorder with genetic and environmental inputs. Cumulative evidence implicates oxidative stress (OS) in migraine pathophysiology while genetic variability may influence an individuals' oxidative/antioxidant capacity. Aim of the current study was to investigate the impact of eight common OS-related genetic variants [rs4880 (SOD2), rs1001179 (CAT), rs1050450 (GPX1), rs1695 (GSTP1), rs1138272 (GSTP1), rs1799983 (NOS3), rs6721961 (NFE2L2), rs660339 (UCP2)] in migraine susceptibility and clinical features in a South-eastern European Caucasian population. Methods Genomic DNA samples from 221 unrelated migraineurs and 265 headache-free controls were genotyped for the selected genetic variants using real-time PCR (melting curve analysis). Results Although allelic and genotypic frequency distribution analysis did not support an association between migraine susceptibility and the examined variants in the overall population, subgroup analysis indicated significant correlation between NOS3 rs1799983 and migraine susceptibility in males. Furthermore, significant associations of CAT rs1001179 and GPX1 rs1050450 with disease age-at-onset and migraine attack duration, respectively, were revealed. Lastly, variability in the CAT, GSTP1 and UCP2 genes were associated with sleep/weather changes, alcohol consumption and physical exercise, respectively, as migraine triggers. Discussion Hence, the current findings possibly indicate an association of OS-related genetic variants with migraine susceptibility and clinical features, further supporting the involvement of OS and genetic susceptibility in migraine.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Migraine is recognized as a complex neurological disorder that has imposed a social burden. We assessed the signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms based on the in silico analysis and predicted drug candidates by the biomedicine approach. Moreover, we evaluated high-intensity interval training and vitamin B12 + magnesium on women's migraine attacks and inflammatory status. METHODS This study computed differential gene expression in migraine syndrome and the dimension network parameters visualized by software. Moreover, we proposed the functional mechanism and binding energy of essential micronutrients on macromolecules based on drug discovery. In this clinical trial, 60 cases were randomized to four groups, including applied high-intensity interval training (HIIT), cases consumed supplementation vitamin B12 and magnesium (Supp), cases applied high-intensity interval training, and consumed supplementation (HIIT + Supp), and migraine cases for 2 months. Serum levels of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) were measured at baseline and at the end of the study. In addition, migraine disability assessment score (MIDAS), frequency, intensity, and duration were recorded before and during interventions. RESULTS In silico study revealed the association between inflammation signaling pathways and pathogenesis of migraine attacks as a remarkable pathomechanism in this disorder. Furthermore, serum concentrations of CGRP were significantly declined in the HIIT + Supp compared with other groups. In addition, MIDAS, frequency, intensity, and duration were reduced in the HIIT + Supp group compared with the other groups. CONCLUSION We found that the synergistic effects of cobalamin and magnesium followed by regular exercise could silence the inflammation signaling pathway, and a combination of HIIT + Supp could ameliorate migraine pain. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered in the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials; IRCT code: IRCT20170510033909N12. Approval Data: 2021/06/02.

Abstract
IntroductionThe pathophysiology of migraine integrates inflammatory and genetic aspects, with interleukin-1α being a component of this picture. This pro-inflammatory cytokine, responsible for inducing pyrogenic, hematological, and metabolic phenomena, is produced by macrophages and monocytes. Genetic variants, which can be found in the regulatory region of the gene for this substance, have clinical implications in different systems.ObjectiveTo evaluate the frequency of the -889C>T genetic variant of IL-1α and its association with clinical variables related to migraine. MethodsProspective case-control study composed of migraine patients and healthy controls aged between 18 and 60 years of age. Project approved by the Research Ethics Committee of PUCPR (No. 3,029,972). Demographic, clinical data on migraine classification and characteristics were collected using a structured form and validated questionnaires on anxiety (STAIY2), depression (BDI) and migraine-related disability (MIDAS). Genetic evaluation was performed with blood or saliva samples that were subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR), followed by electrophoresis in 1.5% agarose gel. Categorical data were analyzed by chi-square test or Fisher's exact test and continuous data by t-test or Mann-Whitney test. ResultsA total of 156 participants, 73 migraineurs and 83 controls, were evaluated. The -889C>T variant of IL-1α was not associated with increased susceptibility to migraine when evaluated in allelic, codominant, dominant, or recessive models. The C allele, the lowest producer of the cytokine, was associated with a higher frequency of osmophobia in patients with migraine (65.5% vs. 48.2%; p=0.038). ConclusionNo association was identified between the -889C>T variant of IL-1α and susceptibility to migraine. Its effect on osmophobia should be further investigated. However, the present work is a partial analysis whose main limitation is the small sample size.

Abstract
Migraine is a very common disorder of the nervous system. It shares similar physiological processes with stroke. Migrainous infarction is a rare complication of migraine with aura. The neuro-logical symptoms of migraine aura correspond to the cortical spreading depression and this depression can lead to a migrainous infarction. It is pertinent to state that the investigation and detection of the cortical depression might have a great clinical significance. Blood vessels in the cranium play an important role in the pathophysiology of migraine. In the case of injured states of brain, the cortical spreading depression causes extreme vasoconstriction rather than vasodilation. The endothelial damage caused by the cortical spreading depression can result in hypercoagulability, leading to an increased risk of stroke. There are many genetic disorders in which migraine and stroke are the major symptoms and an insight into these disorders can help us in the understanding of complex mechanisms of migrainous infarction. It is pertinent to state that some derangements in the vascular function accompany migraine which may also serve as targets for research and treatment. This article will describe the hemodynamic and genetic relationship between migraine induced stroke and how it relates to the cortical spreading depression.

Abstract
Objective: Migraine is a common, disabling condition typically characterized by severe headache, nausea, and/or light and sound sensitivity. This study assessed migraine-related health resource utilization (HRU) occurring in the emergency room/accident & emergency department (ER/A&E) setting among European patients with 4 or more migraine days per month. Methods: Patient-level clinical and HRU data were collected via chart extraction by ER/A&E physicians in France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. Eligible patients had 4 or more migraine days in the month prior to a migraine-related ER/A&E visit and a history of migraine, among other criteria. The index date for each patient was defined as the date of an ER/A&E visit for migraine on or after January 1, 2013. Physician and ER/A&E characteristics, patient and disease characteristics, treatment history, migraine-medication used, and migraine-related HRU (i.e. procedures) during the ER/A&E visit were assessed. Descriptive analyses were conducted in the pooled population, and a sensitivity analysis was performed by country. Results: A total of 467 eligible patient's charts (120 in France, 120 in Germany, 107 in Italy, and 120 in Spain) were provided by 136 physicians (36 in France, 36 in Germany, 28 in Italy, and 36 in Spain). On average, patients spent nearly 8 hours in the ER/A&E. Approximately 82% of patients received a blood test, 62% received an electrocardiography, and 46% received a cranial computerized tomography scan. Despite the majority of patients already using acute or prophylactic treatment upon visiting the ER/A&E, almost all patients were administered or prescribed migraine treatment during the visit. Approximately 21% of patients were admitted to the hospital, and over half of patients were referred to a neurologist or headache specialist. Conclusions: European patients who had four or more migraine days in the month prior to a migraine-related ER/A&E visit had high HRU associated with the visit.

Abstract
Aims: This retrospective chart review examined the six-month migraine-related healthcare resource use (HRU) among European patients who had ≥4 migraine days per month and previously failed at least two prophylactic migraine treatments. Methods: Neurologists, headache specialists, and pain specialists in France, Germany, Italy, and Spain who treated ≥10 patients with migraine in 2017 were recruited (April-June 2018) to extract anonymized patient-level data. Eligible physicians randomly selected charts of up to five adult patients with clinically-confirmed migraine, ≥4 migraine days in the month prior to the index date, and had previously failed at least two prophylactic migraine treatments. Treatment failure was defined as discontinuation due to lack of efficacy and/or tolerability. Demographic and disease characteristics as of the index date, and migraine-related HRU incurred during the 6-month study period, were recorded. Results: A total of 104 physicians contributed 168 charts for patients (63% female). On average, patients were 38 years old and failed 2.3 prophylactic treatments as of the index date. During the study period, 83% of patients had ≥1 outpatient visit for migraine in the physician's office, and 27% went to the ER/A&E. Approximately 5% of patients were hospitalized for migraine, with an average of one hospitalization and an average length of stay of 3 days. Approximately 39% of patients had ≥1 blood test, 22% had ≥1 magnetic resonance imaging, 17% had ≥1 electroencephalogram, and 13% had ≥1 computerized tomography scan. Visits to other healthcare providers were common. Limitations: This study is subject to the limitations of chart review studies, such as errors in data entry. Conclusions: Across four European countries, the HRU burden of migraine among patients who previously failed at least two prophylactic treatments was high, indicating a need for more effective prophylactic treatments to appropriately manage migraine and reduce the HRU burden attributable to this common disorder.

Abstract
Migraine is a brain disorder characterized by a piercing headache which affects one side of the head, located mainly at the temples and in the area around the eye. Migraine imparts substantial suffering to the family in addition to the sufferer, particularly as it affects three times more women than men and is most prevalent between the ages of 25 and 45, the years of child rearing. Migraine typically occurs in individuals with a genetic predisposition and is aggravated by specific environmental triggers. Attempts to study the biochemistry of migraine began as early as the 1960s and were primarily directed at serotonin metabolism after an increase of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), the main metabolite of serotonin was observed in urine of migraineurs. Genetic and biochemical studies have primarily focused on the neurotransmitter serotonin, considering receptor binding, transport and synthesis of serotonin and have investigated serotonergic mediators including enzymes, receptors as well as intermediary metabolites. These studies have been mainly assayed in blood, CSF and urine as the most accessible fluids. More recently PET imaging technology integrated with a metabolomics and a systems biology platform are being applied to study serotonergic biology. The general trend observed is that migraine patients have alterations of neurotransmitter metabolism detected in biological fluids with different biochemistry from controls, however the interpretation of the biological significance of these peripheral changes is unresolved. In this review we present the biology of the serotonergic system and metabolic routes for serotonin and discuss results of biochemical studies with regard to alterations in serotonin in brain, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, platelets, plasma and urine of migraine patients.

Abstract
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is highly comorbid with chronic pain (CP). Evidence has suggested that neuroadaptive processes characterized by reward deficit and stress surfeit are involved in the development of AUD and pain chronification. Neurological data suggest that shared genetic architecture associated with the reward and stress systems may contribute to the comorbidity of AUD and CP. This monograph first delineates the prevailing theories of the development of AUD and pain chronification focusing on the reward and stress systems. It then provides a brief summary of relevant neurological findings followed by an evaluation of evidence documented by molecular genetic studies. Candidate gene association studies have provided some initial support for the genetic overlap between AUD and CP; however, these results must be interpreted with caution until studies with sufficient statistical power are conducted and replications obtained. Genomewide association studies have suggested a number of genes (e.g., TBX19, HTR7, and ADRA1A) that are either directly or indirectly related to the reward and stress systems in the AUD and CP literature. Evidence reviewed in this monograph suggests that shared genetic liability underlying the comorbidity between AUD and CP, if present, is likely to be complex. As the advancement in molecular genetic methods continues, future studies may show broader central nervous system involvement in AUD-CP comorbidity.

Abstract
Background Migraine and major depressive disorder (commonly referred to as depression) are both common disorders with a significant impact on society. Studies in both clinical and community-based settings have demonstrated a strong relationship between migraine and depression. In addition to complicating the diagnosis, depression that is comorbid with migraine may lower treatment adherence, increase risk of medication overuse and is associated with migraine chronification, thus leading to higher direct and indirect costs and poorer health-related outcomes with increased disability. Aim The aim of this review is to summarise the current knowledge on the genetic epidemiology of migraine and depression and the possible biological mechanisms underlying their comorbidity. Methods We present a narrative review reporting on the current literature. Results and conclusions Epidemiological findings indicate that there is a bidirectional relationship between migraine and depression, with one disorder increasing the risk for the other and vice versa, suggesting shared biological mechanisms. Twin and family studies indicate that this bidirectional relationship can be explained, at least partly, by shared underlying genetically determined disease mechanisms. Although no genes have been robustly associated with the aetiology of both migraine and depression, genes from serotonergic, dopaminergic and GABAergic systems together with variants in the MTHFR and BDNF genes remain strong candidates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the prevalence and risk factors for pediatric migraine with aura (MWA) among patients presenting to pediatric neurology clinics. BACKGROUND Headache is a common complaint among children, and the prevalence of migraine is about 8%. Up to one third of adults with migraine report experiencing aura; however, the exact percentage in children is unknown. METHODS Medical records of children presenting with headache to three pediatric neurology clinics in Haifa in the last 5 years were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of migraine headache at 5-18 years of age. RESULTS Of 260 children (140 female) who had migraine, 26.2% experienced aura. MWA was more common among females compared to males (32.6% vs 18.9%, P < .01) and among older children (OR: 2.50, 95% CI: 1.20-5.20; P < .01). Among those who experienced aura, visual aura was more common in females than males (66.7% vs 33.3%, P < .04). Family history of migraine was strongly related to MWA (P < .02): the odds of MWA were 2.46 times greater in children who had a family history of migraine. (OR: 2.46, 95% CI: 1.08-5.62; P < .03). CONCLUSIONS MWA is as common in children as in adults. Aura is more common in older children. Children who have MWA are more likely to have a family history of migraine.

Abstract
Motion sickness (MS) is a common physiological response to real or virtual motion. Numerous studies have investigated the neurobiological mechanism and the control measures of MS. This review summarizes the current knowledge about pathogenesis and pathophysiology, prediction, evaluation, and countermeasures of MS. The sensory conflict hypothesis is the most widely accepted theory for MS. Both the hippocampus and vestibular cortex might play a role in forming internal model. The pathophysiology focuses on the visceral afference, thermoregulation and MS-related neuroendocrine. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in some genes and epigenetic modulation might contribute to MS susceptibility and habituation. Questionnaires, heart rate variability (HRV) and electrogastrogram (EGG) are useful for diagnosing and evaluating MS. We also list MS medications to guide clinical practice. Repeated real motion exposure and combined visual-vestibular interaction training accelerate the progress of habituation. Behavioral and dietary countermeasures, as well as physiotherapy, are also effective in alleviating MS symptoms.
