Abstract
BackgroundThe type of medical care received (self-medication and/or medical care provided by a general practitioner or a neurologist) may be associated with differences in the frequency of medication overuse headaches.MethodThis cross-sectional analytical study included 222 records of patients with chronic daily headaches seen at the National Institute of Neurological Sciences Outpatient Unit in Lima, Peru. A pre-designed questionnaire was used to assess and categorize patients with frequent and chronic headaches.ResultsNinety-four patients (42.34% of those with chronic daily headaches) met the criteria for medication overuse headache. Of these, 19 (28%) self-medicated, 22 (36%) consulted with the general practitioner, and the highest proportion of subjects, 53 (58%), consulted with a neurologist. On bivariate analysis, subjects who had received care from a general practitioner and self-medicated were 38% and 51% less likely to have MOH than the subjects whoreceived medical care from the neurologist (p=0.012; 95% CI 0.42-0.90 and p=0.001; 95% CI 0.32-0.74). On multivariate analysis adjusting by sociodemographic and clinical factors, the association remained significant in regards to self-medication, but became marginal (p=0.055) in regard to being seen by a general practitioner.ConclusionIn this study, the frequency of the headache due to overuse of medication was higher in patients attending a neurologist than those attending a general practitioner or self-medicated. This cross-sectional design cannot assess whether this reflects more severe cases looking for specialized care or more medication overuse headaches as a result of inappropriate management.

Abstract
AbstractThis study compared the severity of depression, anxiety, somatization, anxiety sensitivity, sleep disturbances, and quality of life (QoL) among children with migraine, children with tension-type headache (TTH), and healthy children. A total of 37 children with migraine, 22 with TTH, and a healthy control group (n = 35) participated in this study. Children with migraine exhibited higher depression and somatization and lower QoL scores than those in the control group. General sleep disturbances, bedtime resistance, sleep onset delay, sleep duration, sleep anxiety, night wakings, sleep-disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness scores were also higher in those in the migraine group than in the control group. Regression models indicated that the severity of headache and depression scores significantly affected the QoLs of children with headache disorder as a whole. Migraine is associated with depression, somatization, sleep disturbances, and poor QoL, whereas TTH is associated with only sleep disturbances in childhood. The impact of headache on the QoL occurs mainly through the headache-specific and psychiatric factors.

Job Satisfaction Mediates the Association between Perceived Disability and Work Productivity in Migraine Headache Patients. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2019; 16:ijerph16183341. [PMID: 31510071 PMCID: PMC6765904 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph16183341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2019] [Revised: 08/17/2019] [Accepted: 09/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Migraine headache is the cause of an estimated 250,000,000 lost days from work or school every year and is often associated with decreased work productivity. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to assess the relationship between perceived disability, job satisfaction and work productivity in patients affected by chronic migraineurs. Participants were 98 consecutive adult outpatients admitted to the Regional Referral Headache Centre of the Sant’Andrea Hospital in Rome, Italy. Patients were administered the Italian Perceived Disability Scale, The Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire–Work Subscale and The Endicott Work Productivity Scale. Perceived disability is significantly associated with job satisfaction and work productivity. Job satisfaction is significantly related to work productivity and mediates the association between perceived disability and work productivity in patients affected by chronic migraineurs. Our results confirm that patients suffering from migraine headaches who have negative perceptions of their disability are less satisfied with their job, which in turn, decreases their work productivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Headache disorder is not only a common complaint but also a global burden. Pharmacotherapeutic and non-pharmacotherapeutic approaches have been developed for its treatment and prophylaxis. The present study included a systematic review of psychological treatments for primary headache disorder accessible in Korea. METHODS We included English and Korean articles from EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane library database, SCOPUS, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycArticles and Korean database, KoreaMed and KMBASE which studied primary headache and medication-overuse headache. The primary efficacy measure was the number of headache days per month, while secondary efficacy measures were the number of headache attacks per week, headache index, treatment response rate, and migraine disability assessment. The meta-analysis was performed using R 3.5.1. to obtain pooled mean difference and pooled relative risk with 95% confidence interval (CI) for continuous data and dichotomous data, respectively. RESULTS From 12,773 identified articles, 27 randomized clinical trials were identified. Primary outcome showed significant superiority of psychological treatments (pooled mean difference = - 0.70, 95% CI [- 1.22, - 0.18]). For the secondary outcomes, the number of headache attacks (pooled mean difference = - 1.15, 95% CI [- 1.63, - 0.67]), the headache index (pooled mean difference = - 0.92, 95% CI [- 1.40 to - 0.44]) and the treatment response rate (pooled relative risk = 3.13, 95% CI [2.24, 4.37]) demonstrated significant improvements in the psychological treatment group over the control group. CONCLUSION Psychological treatments for primary headache disorder reduced headache frequency and the headache index. Future research using standardized outcome measures and strategies for reducing bias is needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Migraine headache is the seventh leading cause of disability worldwide causing adverse outcomes in many aspects of an individual's life. Many psychological aspects affect chronic migraine (CM): illness perception, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and job satisfaction. This observational study aimed to examine the association among illness perception, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and job satisfaction, connected to migraine and its features. METHODS Ninety-eight individuals with CM treated with OnabotulinumtoxinA were recruited from the Regional Referral Headache Centre of Sant'Andrea Hospital in Rome. They completed 4 questionnaires (Brief Illness Perception Quality of Life, Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory-II) and a socio-anamnestic form. RESULTS This cross-sectional study examined 2 mediational models. The first one demonstrated an indirect mediating effect of trait anxiety on the association between illness perception and job satisfaction (ab = -0.217, 95% CI [-0.37, -0.09]). In the second model, depressive symptoms mediated the association between illness perception and job satisfaction (ab = -0.186, 95% CI [-0.33, -0.04]). CONCLUSIONS In our study, levels of anxiety and depressive symptoms showed a mediational effect on the association between illness perception and job fulfillment. It is important to develop interventions aimed at improving the quality of life of individuals with CM and to increase knowledge about headache and psychological consequences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study's goal is to understand the factors that drive individuals to adopt Electronic Health Record (EHR) portals and to estimate if there are differences between countries with different healthcare models. METHODS We applied a new adoption model using as a starting point the extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2) by incorporating the Concern for Information Privacy (CFIP) framework. To evaluate the research model we used the partial least squares (PLS) - structural equation modelling (SEM) approach. An online questionnaire was administrated in the United States (US) and Europe (Portugal). We collected 597 valid responses. RESULTS The statistically significant factors of behavioural intention are performance expectancy ([Formula: see text] total = 0.285; P < 0.01), effort expectancy ([Formula: see text] total = 0.160; P < 0.01), social influence ([Formula: see text] total = 0.198; P < 0.01), hedonic motivation ([Formula: see text] total = -0.141; P < 0.01), price value ([Formula: see text] total = 0.152; P < 0.01), and habit ([Formula: see text] total = 0.255; P < 0.01). The predictors of use behaviour are habit ([Formula: see text] total = 0.145; P < 0.01), and behavioural intention ([Formula: see text] total = 0.480; P < 0.01). Social influence, hedonic motivation, and price value are only predictors in the US group. The model explained 53% of the variance in behavioural intention and 36% of the variance in use behaviour. CONCLUSIONS Our study identified critical factors for the adoption of EHR portals and significant differences between the countries. Confidentiality issues do not seem to influence acceptance. The EHR portals usage patterns are significantly higher in US compared to Portugal.
