Abstract
OBJECTIVE Impairment in the integration of different vestibular stimuli is the proposed mechanisms in vestibular migraine (VM). In this study, it was aimed to assess the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and dynamic visual acuity (DVA) in patients with VM and to compare the results with migraine without vestibular symptoms (MwoV), and persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) to find out if there are discriminative differences and search for a correlation with the levels of anxiety. METHODS Twenty-two patients with MwoV, 23 patients with VM, 22 patients with PPPD, and 23 healthy controls (HC) were studied. Video head impulse test (vHIT) and functional head impulse test (fHIT) without and with an optokinetic background (OB) were performed. Percentage of correctly identified optotypes (CA%) was considered for the fHIT test. Beck anxiety inventory (BAI) was used to assess anxiety. RESULTS Lateral canal vHIT gain of the patient groups were not different from the healthy controls (p > 0.05). fHIT and fHIT/OB CA% results of all patient groups were lower than the HC (p < 0.005), and VM patients had the lowest scores for both tests. BAI scores of the PPPD patients were the highest and a correlation between anxiety levels, and fHIT results could not be identified (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Prominent CA% drop by the use of an OB was the main finding in patients with VM. This discriminative feature was not correlated with anxiety scores. Difficulty in resolving the conflict between visual and vestibular inputs seem to be the underlying mechanism. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 2024.

Abstract
Background Clinical studies suggest that vestibular migraine patients have psychiatric comorbidities and low life quality. However, the absence of a multidisciplinary approach to vestibular migraine patients, including otorhinolaryngologists and psychiatrists, is concerning. We aimed to investigate these patients comprehensively and to compare the results of three questionnaires-the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), and Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)-between patients with definite vestibular migraine (dVM), migraine without vertigo (MO), and healthy controls (HCs). METHODS A total of 104 participants were divided into 3 groups: dVM patients (19 participants), MO patients (22 participants), and HCs (63 participants). The scores of the three questionnaires across the three groups were compared using analysis of variance, and linear regression was used to examine the associations between the questionnaire scores within each group. RESULTS Compared to MO patients and HCs, dVM patients had significantly higher total scores on the HADS (p < 0.0001) and DHI (p < 0.0001) scales, and lower scores for all nine components of the SF-36, indicating poorer health. In the vestibular migraine group, the DHI score was strongly negatively correlated with the Physical Functioning subscale of the SF-36. CONCLUSIONS Anxiety and depression are more prevalent in patients with definite vestibular migraine compared to patients with migraine without vertigo and healthy controls. The physical functioning of patients with definite vestibular migraine is highly affected by their dizziness, resulting in a lower quality of life. Timely screening for psychiatric comorbidity in vestibular migraine patients is essential to prevent psychiatric consequences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated the extent of literature and findings on relationships between vestibular issues, noise sensitivity (NS), and anxiety. We were interested in how relationships among these factors impacted adults' recovery three months or more after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). METHODS We conducted a scoping review to evaluate the extent of evidence linking relationships between vestibular issues, NS and anxiety with recovery after mTBI. Data relating to study characteristics and key findings were extracted and used to inform a critical narrative synthesis of findings. RESULTS After screening and full-text review, we included two studies. Both studies considered the combination of vestibular issues, NS and anxiety and mTBI recovery. Vestibular issues, NS and anxiety were all significantly associated with one another and their presence was the strongest indicator that symptoms would extend beyond three-months after mTBI. CONCLUSION Few studies have focused on the relationships that vestibular issues, NS and anxiety have with one another and recovery after mTBI. Given the apparent strong relationships between these factors and prolonged recovery, we highlight this as an area warranting further investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide an update on comorbidity of vestibular symptoms and migraine. RECENT FINDINGS Multisensory processing and integration is a key concept for understanding mixed presentation of migraine and vestibular symptoms. Here, we discuss how vestibular migraine should be distinguished from a secondary migraine phenomenon in which migraine symptoms may coincide with or triggered by another vestibular disorder. We also have some updates on the diagnostic criteria of vestibular migraine, its pathophysiology, and common approaches used for its treatment. As a common clinical presentation of migraine and vestibular symptoms, vestibular migraine should be distinguished from a secondary migraine phenomenon, in which migraine symptoms may be triggered by or coincide with another vestibular disorder. Recent experimental evidence suggests vestibular symptoms in vestibular migraine are linked to multisensory mechanisms that control body motion and orientation in space.

Abstract
Motion-induced anxiety and agoraphobia are more frequent symptoms in patients with vestibular migraine (VM) than migraine without vertigo. The neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a therapeutic target for migraine and VM, but the link between motion hypersensitivity, anxiety, and CGRP is relatively unexplored, especially in preclinical mouse models. To further examine this link, we tested the effects of systemic CGRP and off-vertical axis rotation (OVAR) on elevated plus maze (EPM) and rotarod performance in male and female C57BL/6J mice. Rotarod ability was assessed using two different dowel diameters: mouse dowel (r = 1.5 cm) versus rat dowel (r = 3.5 cm). EPM results indicate that CGRP alone or OVAR alone did not increase anxiety indices. However, the combination of CGRP and OVAR did elicit anxiety-like behavior. On the rotarod, CGRP reduced performance in both sexes on a mouse dowel but had no effect on a rat dowel, whereas OVAR had a significant effect on the rat dowel. These results suggest that only the combination of CGRP with vestibular stimulation induces anxiety-like behavior and that CGRP affects the dynamic balance function in mice depending on the type of challenge presented. These findings suggest that anxiety-like behaviors can be teased out from imbalance behaviors in a mouse model of "migraine." Future studies are aimed to determine if CGRP receptor antagonists that have been effective treating migraineurs and mouse "migraine" models may also reduce the anxiety observed in migraine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To find out if motion sickness susceptibility (MSS) of vestibular migraine (VM) patients and migraine only (MO) patients can be reliably detected with a single simple question: "Can you read while travelling in a car without getting motion sick?". METHOD Ninety-two definite VM and 58 MO patients and 74 healthy control (HC) subjects were asked about their MSS and about being able to read while riding in a car without becoming motion sick. A Motion Sickness Susceptibility Questionnaire (MSSQ-Short) including childhood (MSA), adulthood (MSB) and total (MST) parts was also administered to all participants. ROC curves of MSSQ-Short were prepared for "not being able to read in a car" as the gold standard. RESULTS Mean MSA scores were significantly higher in both VM and MO patients than in HCs (p < 0.001), but their scores were not significantly different (p = 0.171). Mean MSB and MST scores were significantly higher in VM than in MO patients (p < 0.001) and both VM and MO patients had significantly higher scores than HCs (p < 0.001). MSA scores were significantly higher than MSB scores in MO patients (p < 0.001). All sections of the questionnaire were associated with high area-under-curve values for MSS detected by the question about being able to read in a car without becoming motion sick. CONCLUSION We propose that all migraine patients could have the same level of MSS in childhood but MO patients are able to compensate over years, but VM patients are not. A quick way to determine MSS is to ask about the ability to read without becoming motion sickness while riding a car.

Abstract
Much has changed since our last review of recent advances in neuro-otology 7 years ago. Unfortunately there are still not many practising neuro-otologists, so that most patients with vestibular problems need, in the first instance, to be evaluated and treated by neurologists whose special expertise is not neuro-otology. The areas we consider here are mostly those that almost any neurologist should be able to start managing: acute spontaneous vertigo in the Emergency Room-is it vestibular neuritis or posterior circulation stroke; recurrent spontaneous vertigo in the office-is it vestibular migraine or Meniere's disease and the most common vestibular problem of all-benign positional vertigo. Finally we consider the future: long-term vestibular monitoring and the impact of machine learning on vestibular diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vestibular Migraine (VM) is a frequent cause of recurrent spontaneous vertigo. While some report a normal Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) in VM, others observed abnormal results on this test. Whether or not methodological discrepancies could be the cause of these differences is not known. There are 2 vHIT methods: subjects fixating an earth-fixed target (HIMP paradigm) or a head-fixed target, the suppression head impulse test (SHIMP paradigm). OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to compare VM patients against healthy controls on both HIMP and SHIMP in order to unravel any differences between them. METHODS Forty-eight VM patients and 27 healthy controls tested with both the HIMP and SHIMP paradigm. Results: Our 48 VM patients showed mean VOR normal range gains in both the HIMP and SHIMP paradigms, although there were some VOR impairments in individual semicircular SCCs. VM patients with motion sickness had lower horizontal VOR gain than those without motion sickness, with the HIMP, but not the SHIMP paradigm. CONCLUSION VM patients have normal VOR gain with either vHIT paradigm. SIGNIFICANCE The clinical significance of this observation is that a definitely abnormal vHIT with either method is unlikely to be due to vestibular migraine and an alternative diagnosis should be sought.

Abstract
Motion-induced anxiety and agoraphobia are more frequent symptoms in patients with vestibular migraine than migraine without vertigo. The neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a therapeutic target for migraine and vestibular migraine, but the link between motion hypersensitivity, anxiety, and CGRP is relatively unexplored, especially in preclinical mouse models. To further examine this link, we tested the effects of systemic CGRP and off-vertical axis rotation (OVAR) on elevated plus maze (EPM) and rotarod performance in male and female C57BL/6J mice. Rotarod ability was assessed using two different dowel diameters: mouse dowel (r = 1.5 cm) versus rat dowel (r = 3.5 cm). EPM results indicate CGRP increased anxiety indexes and time spent in the closed arms in females but not males, while OVAR increased anxiety indexes and time spent in the closed arms in both sexes. The combination of CGRP and OVAR elicited even greater anxiety-like behavior. On the rotarod, CGRP reduced performance in both sexes on a mouse dowel but had no effect on a rat dowel, whereas OVAR had a significant effect on the rat dowel. Rotarod performance is influenced by dowel diameter, with larger dowels presenting greater challenges on balance function. These results suggest that both CGRP and vestibular stimulation induce anxiety-like behavior and that CGRP affects dynamic balance function in mice depending on the type of challenge presented. Findings highlight the potential translation of anti-CGRP receptor signaling therapeutics for treating motion hypersensitivity and motion-induced anxiety that manifests in vestibular migraine. Significance statement Anxiety is very common in patients with dizziness and vestibular migraine (VM). Elevated CGRP levels have been linked to migraine symptoms of increased light and touch sensitivity in mice and humans and we wondered if a systemic injection of CGRP into mice would increase anxiety and imbalance; and if mice further exposed to a vestibular stimulus would have their anxiety measures sharpened. We observed a female preponderance in both CGRP and motion-induced anxiety-like behaviors, suggesting that the role of CGRP in migraine's anxiety symptoms can be recapitulated in the mouse. Our findings suggest that CGRP signaling has a pertinent role in motion-induced anxiety and dynamic imbalance, and warrants the potential use of anti-CGRP therapies for the treatment of these symptoms.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the situation of vertigo disorder combined with anxiety and depression in patients with different types of vestibular syndrome. Methods A total of 330 patients with vertigo in otolaryngology outpatient department were selected, and clinical information such as age, gender, and scores of Dizziness handicap inventory (DHI), Generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7), and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were collected. Analyzed the differences among acute vestibular syndrome (AVS), episodic vestibular syndrome (EVS) and chronic vestibular syndrome (CVS) in terms of age, gender, comorbid anxiety and depression, and the multivariate ordered logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between the above factors and the degree of vertigo disorder. Results The three types of vestibular syndrome had no significant difference in age composition, sex composition, anxiety and depression. There was no significant difference in the probability of anxiety and depression among vertigo patients of different ages and genders. The total score of vertigo disorder and each sub-item score were higher in patients with anxiety and depression. Patients with anxiety mainly manifested in EVS and CVS, while patients with depression mainly manifested in EVS and AVS. The probability of increased vertigo in anxious patients was 4.65 times that of non-anxious patients, and the probability of increased vertigo in depressed patients was 3.49 times that of non-depressed patients. Age and gender had no statistically significant effect on the degree of vertigo. In patients with EVS, anxiety and depression had a significant effect on the degree of vertigo; in patients with CVS, anxiety had a significant effect on the degree of vertigo, but depression had no significant effect. Conclusion Age and gender do not significantly affect the degree of vertigo disorder and mental state in various vestibular syndromes. Instead, anxiety and depression are the risk factors for aggravating the degree of vertigo disorder, and manifest differently in each type of vestibular syndrome. Therefore, it is necessary to use a quick scale tool to conduct a standardized screening of the psychological status of patients with vertigo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Migraine is associated with motion sensitivity symptoms such as kinetosis, vestibular symptoms and balance alterations. While focus is given to headache management, addressing these symptoms is often neglected, although they are related to additional migraine burden and increased disability. PURPOSE Our aim is to disseminate the current understanding of the motion sensitivity symptoms among patients with migraine, with focus on balance impairments. We discuss the susceptibility of migraine to motion sensitivity, its suggested mechanisms, the balance alterations during quiet standing, mobility tasks and reactions to external perturbations. The role of migraine subdiagnosis, implications for clinical practice and future perspectives are also acknowledged. IMPLICATIONS Balance disorders are one of the signs reflecting a broader and complex spectrum of motion sensitivity, which are present even between attacks. Migraineurs are especially inherent to these symptoms probably due to brain hyperexcitability and to shared pathophysiological mechanisms. Patients, especially with aura and chronic migraine, exhibit balance instability during quiet standing under different surface and visual input conditions. Migraineurs demonstrated reduced limits of stability and lower performance on walk, transposing obstacles and sit to stand tasks. Only patients with aura present impairment of motor control reactions following external perturbations. Balance alterations are associated with falls and are influenced by aura, migraine frequency and psychosocial aspects, but not by vestibular symptoms or vestibular migraine diagnosis. There is a high demand for high quality of evidence regarding the assessment and care of motion sensitivity symptoms in migraineurs, considering approaches to manage not just the pain, but its associated symptoms.

Abstract
Background Saccades are often observed on video head impulse tests (vHIT) in patients with Meniere's Disease (MD) and Vestibular Migraine (VM). However, their saccadic features are not fully described. Objective This study aims to identify the saccades characteristics of MD and VM. Methods 75 VM patients and 103 definite unilateral MD patients were enrolled in this study. First raw saccades were exported and analyzed. The VM patients were divided into left and right based on their ears, while the MD patients were separated into affected and unaffected subgroups based on their audiograms and symptoms. Results The MD patients have more saccades on the affected side (85% vs. 69%), and saccade velocity is more consistent than the contralateral side (shown by the coefficient of variation). The saccades occurrence rates on both sides are similar in VM (77% vs. 76%), as are other saccadic parameters. The MD patients have more significant inter-aural differences than the VM patients, manifested in higher velocity (p-value 0.000), earlier arriving (p-value 0.010), and more time-domain gathered (p-value 0.003) on the affected side. Conclusions Bilateral saccades are commonly observed in MD and VM. In contrast to MD, saccades on VM are subtle, scattered, and late-arrived. Furthermore, the MD patients showed inconsistent saccadic distribution with more velocity-uniform saccades on the affected side.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current Bárány Society criteria for vestibular migraine (VM) include only episodic symptoms. Anecdotal observations suggest that some patients have episodic forms and others have chronic forms of VM, with interplay and evolution of both subtypes over time. OBJECTIVE To better understand VM subtypes and evaluate a more inclusive diagnostic schema. METHODS Four VM groups were studied: definite episodic (dVM), probable episodic (pVM), definite chronic (dCVM), and probable chronic (pCVM). Chronic VM was defined as having more than 15 dizzy days per month. Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were analyzed, along with Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and Vestibular Migraine Patient Assessment Tool and Handicap Inventory (VM-PATHI) scores. RESULTS 54 adults with a mean age of 47.0 years (SD 13.7) were enrolled. 10 met criteria for dVM, 11 pVM, 22 dCVM, and 11 pCVM. Overall, there were strong similarities in clinical characteristics between dVM, pVM, dCVM, and pCVM. Compared to subjects with episodic VM, those with chronic VM had a higher average number of VM triggers (8.7 vs. 6.4, P = 0.019), including motion (93.9% vs. 66.7%, P = 0.009), scrolling on a screen (78.8% vs. 47.6%, P = 0.018), skipped meal (57.6% vs. 23.8%, P = 0.015), and air travel (57.6% vs. 23.8%, P = 0.015). They also had higher symptom severity (DHI = 53.3, P = 0.194) and burden of disease (VM-PATHI = 48.2, P = 0.030) scores. CONCLUSIONS Many patients do not meet current Bárány Society criteria for VM based on their duration of vestibular symptoms. Yet, these patients with chronic VM endorse several indistinguishable symptoms from those who do meet criteria. A more inclusive diagnostic schema should be adopted where patients with vestibular symptoms shorter than 5 minutes or longer than 72 hours are also recognized as having VM.

Outcome of vestibular rehabilitation in vestibular migraine. J Neurol 2022; 269:6246-6253.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of an individualized vestibular rehabilitation (VR) program on balance and gait performance and on self-perceived handicap in a group of vestibular migraine (VM) patients with associated anxiety. METHODS An 8-week prospective clinical trial of a VR program was conducted on 74 VM patients. The effects were evaluated with the modified Clinical Test of Sensory Integration in Balance (mCTSIB), the Dynamic Gait Index (DGI), and the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) before and after VR. The Panic Agoraphobic Spectrum Self-Report version (PAS-SR) was used to assess the patients' level of anxiety. RESULTS DGI and DHI parameters significantly improved after VR (p < 0.05). The fall rates of mCTSIB were significantly decreased on foam with eyes closed (chi-square: 4.934, p = 0.026), and on foam with head back and eyes closed (chi-square: 7.451, p = 0.006). Forty-three (58.1%) of 74 VM patients had panic-anxiety complaints in terms of PAS scores (a score of > 46 points indicates the presence of anxiety). Balance and gait performance as measured by DGI (p = 0.000), DHI (p = 0.000), and mCTSIB (p < 0.05) improved significantly after VR in both groups of VM patients: those with and without anxiety complaints (PAS scores > 46 points and < 46 points, respectively). CONCLUSION Even VM patients with anxiety complaints benefited from vestibular exercises, and their imbalance complaints and perceived levels of handicap/disability improved. Individual specific vestibular exercises created with a clinical decision-making process provide functional improvement through vestibular compensation mechanisms. VR should be included in the treatment programs of VM patients with either high or low anxiety levels to improve vestibular function.

Abstract
Objective Saccades accompanied by normal gain in video head impulse tests (vHIT) are often observed in patients with vestibular migraine (VM). However, they are not considered as an independent indicator, reducing their utility in diagnosing VM. To better understand clinical features of VM, it is necessary to understand raw saccades data. Methods Fourteen patients with confirmed VM, 45 patients with probable VM (p-VM) and 14 age-matched healthy volunteers were included in this study. Clinical findings related to spontaneous nystagmus (SN), positional nystagmus (PN), head-shaking nystagmus (HSN), caloric test and vHIT were recorded. Raw saccades data were exported and numbered by their sequences, and their features analyzed. Results VM patients showed no SN, PN or HSN, and less than half of them showed unilateral weakness (UW) on caloric test. The first saccades from lateral semicircular canal stimulation were the most predominant for both left and right sides. Neither velocity nor time parameters were significantly different when compared between the two sides. Most VM patients (86%) exhibited small saccades, around 35% of the head peak velocity, with a latency of 200–400 ms. Characteristics of saccades were similar in patients with p-VM. Only four normal subjects showed saccades, all unilateral and seemingly random. Conclusions Small saccades involving bilateral semicircular canals with a scattered distribution pattern are common in patients with VM and p-VM.

Abstract
BackgroundThe diagnosis of persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) is primarily based on medical history taking. Research on the value of clinical balance and visual dependence tests in identifying PPPD is scarce.Objectives(1) to contrast clinical balance and visual dependence tests between PPPD patients, dizzy non-PPPD patients, and healthy persons; and (2) to evaluate whether these clinical tests can help to identify PPPD in patients with chronic dizziness.MethodsConsecutive patients with chronic dizziness (38 PPPD and 21 non-PPPD) and 69 healthy persons underwent Static Balance tests, the Timed Up and Go test, the Tandem Gait test, and the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA). Visual dependence tests included the Visual Vertigo Analog Scale (VVAS), the Rod-and-Disc test (RDT), and postural sway while facing rotating dots. Groups were compared using ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey, or independent samples t-tests. The value of the clinical tests for PPPD identification was evaluated through logistic regression and Partial Least Squares Discriminant (PLS-DA) analyses.ResultsPPPD patients had significantly higher VVAS scores than dizzy non-PPPD patients (p = 0.006). Facing rotating dots, PPPD and dizzy non-PPPD patients had increased postural sway compared to healthy persons (PPPD vs. healthy: center of pressure (COP) velocity p < 0.001, and COP area p < 0.001; but non-PPPD vs. healthy: COP velocity p = 0.116 and COP area p = 0.207). PPPD patients had no significantly increased postural sway compared to dizzy non-PPPD patients. PPPD and dizzy non-PPPD patients also scored significantly worse on balance tests compared to healthy persons (PPPD vs. healthy: for all balance tests p < 0.001; non-PPPD vs. healthy: FGA p < 0.001, for all other tests p < 0.05). Differences were insignificant in balance scores between PPPD and dizzy non-PPPD patients, or in RDT scores between the three study groups. In patients with chronic dizziness, a higher VVAS score was most associated with PPPD [odds ratio 1.04; 95% CI (1.01; 1.07); p = 0.010]. The cross-validated (CV) PLS-DA model with all clinical tests included, had fair discriminative ability (CVerror = 47%).ConclusionPPPD patients were more visually dependent, but did not have worse postural balance compared to dizzy non-PPPD patients. Elevated VVAS scores characterized PPPD most in patients with chronic dizziness.

Abstract
PURPOSE To find out clinical features associated with poor response to treatment in vestibular migraine (VM). METHODS VM patients treated with drugs recommended in migraine prophylaxis were included in this multicenter study. Migraine features including type, age of onset of headache and vertigo attacks, attack frequency, intensity, associated symptoms, triggering factors, presence of interictal dizziness/imbalance, anxiety, depression, history of motion sickness, and family history of migraine were noted. Amitriptyline, flunarizine, propranolol, topiramate and venlafaxine were chosen depending on patients' individual requirements. Maximum dose of each drug was tried for 2 months to decide its efficacy. In the case of inefficacy, it was changed with another preventive drug of different class. If there was still no improvement, two drugs of different classes were combined. ≥ 50% reduction in attack frequency and severity in patients using one drug and a combination of two drugs was compared, with patients showing <50% reduction despite combination therapy, regarding their clinical features. RESULTS The results of 430 VM patients, 65 men and 365 women with a mean age of 42.2 ± 12.2 years (range: 17-74 years), were analyzed. CONCLUSION Cutaneous allodynia frequently associated with female sex, comorbid anxiety and depression and interictal dizziness/imbalance enhanced with comorbid anxiety were risk factors for reduced treatment response. Aural fullness might be the clue of impending concomitant Meniere's disease not responding to migraine preventives.

Abstract
This paper presents diagnostic criteria for vestibular migraine, jointly formulated by the Committee for Classification of Vestibular Disorders of the Bárány Society and the Migraine Classification Subcommittee of the International Headache Society (IHS). It contains a literature update while the original criteria from 2012 were left unchanged. The classification defines vestibular migraine and probable vestibular migraine. Vestibular migraine was included in the appendix of the third edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD-3, 2013 and 2018) as a first step for new entities, in accordance with the usual IHS procedures. Probable vestibular migraine may be included in a later version of the ICHD, when further evidence has accumulated. The diagnosis of vestibular migraine is based on recurrent vestibular symptoms, a history of migraine, a temporal association between vestibular symptoms and migraine symptoms and exclusion of other causes of vestibular symptoms. Symptoms that qualify for a diagnosis of vestibular migraine include various types of vertigo as well as head motion-induced dizziness with nausea. Symptoms must be of moderate or severe intensity. Duration of acute episodes is limited to a window of between 5 minutes and 72 hours.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vestibular migraine (VM) is one of the most common causes of vertigo in clinical practice but it is not always easy to make the correct diagnosis. Our aims were to find out how VM patients differ from migraine only (MO) patients, to evaluate co-morbid depression in these two groups and to determine if their disease has an effect on their quality of life. METHODS We studied 50 definite VM and 35 MO patients. Each patient was asked about: age of onset, duration of headaches, presence of aura, headache characteristics, triggering factors, associated features, motion sickness history and family history of migraine. VM patients were also asked about their vertigo attacks and accompanying symptoms. Each patient also completed the following questionnaires: (1) Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS); (2) headache severity with VAS (Visual Analog Scale); (3) Allodynia Symptom Checklist (ASC-12); (4) Beck Depression Inventory (BDI); (5) World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire Short Form-12 (WHOQL-SF12); (6) Activities Specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC). VM patients also completed the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI). RESULTS We found that VM patients were more likely than MO patients to be female, post-menopausal, depressed, motion sick, complaining of imbalance and of food-triggered headaches. In contrast, MO patients were more likely than VM patients to have severe headaches and that these can be triggered by certain odors and by noise. CONCLUSION Our findings showed differences between VM and MO patients and attention to these differences could help clinicians diagnose, characterize and manage their VM patients.

Abstract
Introduction: Vestibular migraine (VM) is a complex disease characterized by recurrent episodes of migraine associated with vertigo attacks that are observed in 1-3% of the general population. Given its high prevalence and the impact on the health system, it is important to characterize these patients, in order to offer an accurate diagnosis and a proper treatment. As the diagnosis of VM is based on clinical features, the study of potential biomarkers has gained more interest in the last years, to improve the precision in the diagnosis of this disease. The aim of this review is to summarize the main tests available for the diagnosis of VM, including the accuracy of biomarkers for the diagnosis of VM.Areas covered: This review summarizes the main information on VM, including all diagnosis records published in the field in the last 10 years, and focusing on candidate biomarkers for the diagnosis of VM patients.Expert opinion: There is a limited knowledge in the pathophysiology of VM. The search of biomarkers for diagnosis of VM is needed to improve the precision in the diagnosis promoting clinical and translational research. The potential reclassification of VM will depend upon the discovery and validation of these biomarkers.
