Neurosci Biobehav Rev 2024; 156:105498. [PMID: 38043751 DOI: 10.1016/j.neubiorev.2023.105498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023]
Abstract
Post-traumatic headache (PTH) represents the most common acute and persistent symptom following concussion in children, yet the underlying pathophysiology remains unclear. This systematic review sought to: (i) rigorously examine the current evidence of PTH pathophysiology in paediatric concussion (0-18 years), (ii) assess the quality of evidence, and (iii) provide directions for future research in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Eligible studies (n = 19) totalling 1214 concussion participants investigated cerebrovascular function (n = 6), white matter integrity (n = 3), functional connectivity (n = 3), electrophysiology (n = 1), neurometabolics (n = 2), biological fluid markers (n = 4), vestibular and oculomotor function (n = 4); two studies used a multi-modal approach. Majority of studies were rated as fair quality (90%) and Level 3 evidence (84%). The true underlying mechanisms of PTH following paediatric concussion remain unclear. Overall quality of the available evidence is generally weak with a fair risk of bias and characterised by relative scarcity and lack of specificity of PTH pathophysiology. Future research is required to rigorously isolate pathophysiology specific to PTH with strict adherence to clinical definitions and standardised measurement tools of PTH.

Abstract
Post-traumatic headache (PTH) is a common and debilitating consequence of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) that can occur over one year after the head impact event. Thus, better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and risk factors could facilitate early identification and management of PTH. There are several factors that could influence the reporting of PTH prevalence, including the definition of concussion and PTH. The main risk factors for PTHs include a history of migraines or headaches, female gender, younger age, greater severity of the head injury, and co-occurring psychological symptoms, such as anxiety and depression. PTH clinical profiles vary based on onset, duration, and severity: tension-type headache, migraine headaches, cervicogenic headache, occipital neuralgia, and new daily persistent headache. Pharmacological treatments often consist of analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, or antiepileptic medication. Cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques, biofeedback, and physical therapy could also be used for PTH treatment. Our work highlighted the need for more rigorous studies to better describe the importance of identifying risk factors and patient-centered treatments and to evaluate the effectiveness of the existing treatment options. Clinicians should consider a multidisciplinary approach to managing PTH, including pharmacotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes.

Association of Posttraumatic Headache With Symptom Burden After Concussion in Children. JAMA Netw Open 2023; 6:e231993. [PMID: 36884251 PMCID: PMC9996395 DOI: 10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2023.1993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Importance Headache is the most common symptom after pediatric concussion. Objectives To examine whether posttraumatic headache phenotype is associated with symptom burden and quality of life 3 months after concussion. Design, Setting, and Participants This was a secondary analysis of the Advancing Concussion Assessment in Pediatrics (A-CAP) prospective cohort study, conducted September 2016 to July 2019 at 5 Pediatric Emergency Research Canada (PERC) network emergency departments. Children aged 8.0-16.99 years presenting with acute (<48 hours) concussion or orthopedic injury (OI) were included. Data were analyzed from April to December 2022. Exposure Posttraumatic headache was classified as migraine or nonmigraine headache, or no headache, using modified International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd edition, diagnostic criteria based on self-reported symptoms collected within 10 days of injury. Main Outcomes and Measures Self-reported postconcussion symptoms and quality-of-life were measured at 3 months after concussion using the validated Health and Behavior Inventory (HBI) and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory-Version 4.0 (PedsQL-4.0). An initial multiple imputation approach was used to minimize potential biases due to missing data. Multivariable linear regression evaluated the association between headache phenotype and outcomes compared with the Predicting and Preventing Postconcussive Problems in Pediatrics (5P) clinical risk score and other covariates and confounders. Reliable change analyses examined clinical significance of findings. Results Of 967 enrolled children, 928 (median [IQR] age, 12.2 [10.5 to 14.3] years; 383 [41.3%] female) were included in analyses. HBI total score (adjusted) was significantly higher for children with migraine than children without headache (estimated mean difference [EMD], 3.36; 95% CI, 1.13 to 5.60) and children with OI (EMD, 3.10; 95% CI, 0.75 to 6.62), but not children with nonmigraine headache (EMD, 1.93; 95% CI, -0.33 to 4.19). Children with migraine were more likely to report reliable increases in total symptoms (odds ratio [OR], 2.13; 95% CI, 1.02 to 4.45) and somatic symptoms (OR, 2.70; 95% CI, 1.29 to 5.68) than those without headache. PedsQL-4.0 subscale scores were significantly lower for children with migraine than those without headache only for physical functioning (EMD, -4.67; 95% CI, -7.86 to -1.48). Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study of children with concussion or OI, those with posttraumatic migraine symptoms after concussion had higher symptom burden and lower quality of life 3 months after injury than those with nonmigraine headache. Children without posttraumatic headache reported the lowest symptom burden and highest quality of life, comparable with children with OI. Further research is warranted to determine effective treatment strategies that consider headache phenotype.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goal of this paper is to provide a compilation of the evidence for the treatment of posttraumatic headache (PTH) in the pediatric population. Headache features and timing of therapy were considered. BACKGROUND Headache is the most common symptom following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), affecting more than 80% of children and adolescents. It is unclear whether treatment for PTH should be tailored based on headache characteristics, particularly the presence of migraine features, and/or chronicity of the headache. METHODS Systematic literature searches of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane databases (1985-2021, limited to English) were performed, and key characteristics of included studies were entered into RedCAP® (Prospero ID CRD42020198703). Articles and conference abstracts that described randomized controlled trials (RCTs), cohort studies, retrospective analyses, and case series were included. Participants included youth under 18 years of age with acute (<3 months) and persistent (≥3 months) PTH. Studies that commented on headache improvement in response to therapy were included. RESULTS Twenty-seven unique studies met criteria for inclusion describing abortive pharmacologic therapies (9), preventative pharmacotherapies (5), neuromodulation (1), procedures (5), physical therapy and exercise (6), and behavioral therapy (2). Five RCTs were identified. Studies that focused on abortive pharmacotherapies were completed in the first 2 weeks post-mTBI, whereas other treatment modalities focused on outcomes 1 month to over 1-year post-injury. Few studies reported on migrainous features (7), personal history of migraine (7), or family history of migraine (3). CONCLUSIONS There is limited evidence on the timing and types of therapies that are effective for treating PTH in the pediatric population. Prospective studies that account for headache characteristics and thoughtfully address the timing of therapies and outcome measurement are needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Post-traumatic headache is a common disorder in the pediatric age group, seen both by child neurologists and by non-neurologists. The current review of post-traumatic headache in children and adolescents aims to review the pathophysiology, risk factors, clinical features, neuroimaging, and both acute and preventive treatment options. RECENT FINDINGS Recent literature provides insight into specific risk factors in the pediatric age group for developing post-traumatic headache as well as unique pathophysiologic changes seen in neuroimaging and neurometabolic pathways. It also elucidates common treatment options and novel treatments being currently explored, such as with monoclonal antibodies to CGRP. Finally, current evidence and guidelines recommend the benefit of a gradual return to normal activity based on symptom stability rather than a specific time period. Review of literature on pediatric post-traumatic headache reveals a growing understanding of the factors involved in developing headache after head trauma and the diagnosis/treatment of headache though future research will help further elucidate these areas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the clinical profile and factors associated with post-traumatic headache (PTH) in children with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) attending an urban public hospital. METHODS We enrolled 130 consecutive children aged 6-12 years with mTBI (as per the International Classification of Headache Disorders-III criteria), and followed them up for 7 days. Those who developed PTH were further followed up monthly for 3 months. RESULTS Thirty (23.1%) children developed PTH; 25 (19.2%) children had acute PTH (duration 7 days to 3 months) and the remaining 5 (3.8%) developed persistent PTH (> 3 months). Majority (50%) had bilateral headache and squeezing quality (50%). Forty percent of those with PTH met the criteria for migraine. Obesity (P = 0.84), female gender (P = 0.26), family history of headache (P = 0.93), and prior history of concussion (P = 0.70) were not associated with risk of PTH. Children who developed PTH had higher rate of nausea (RR (95% CI) = 2.42 (1.06, 5.5); P = 0.03) and vomiting (RR (95% CI) = 3.76 (1.64, 8.5); P = 0.001) after mTBI. Headache resolved within 1 month in 63.3% of children. CONCLUSION PTH was found to be common after mTBI in children. Protocolized follow-up and directed history taking for PTH in all children with mTBI, who are frequently discharge from the emergency department after first aid, will lead to appropriate diagnosis and management of this problem.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Monoclonal antibodies to calcitonin gene-related peptide or its receptor have clinical trial evidence in adults with headache, but data are lacking in adolescents. The objective of this study was to describe the safety and efficacy of calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibody treatment in adolescents with chronic headache disorders. METHODS We performed a retrospective multisite cohort study of patients less than 18 years of age who received a calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibody for headache prevention. Demographics, baseline headache characteristics, efficacy, and side effect data were collected. RESULTS The study population comprised 112 adolescents who received at least one dose of a calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibody. Mean (S.D.; range) age at first dose was 15.9 years (1.4; 10.3 to 17.8). Ninety-four patients (83.9%) had chronic migraine, 12 (10.7%) had new daily persistent headache, and six (5.4%) had persistent post-traumatic headache. At baseline, the mean (S.D.) number of headache days per month was 26.9 (6.1) (n = 109) and headache was continuous in 75 of 111 (67.6%). At first follow-up visit there was a significant reduction in headache frequency compared with baseline (-2.0 days; 95% confidence interval, -0.8 to -3.2). Significant benefit was perceived by 29.5% of patients at first follow-up visit (n = 33/112) and 30.1% (n = 22/73) at second follow-up visit. A significant functional improvement was perceived by 31% of patients (n = 31/94) at the first follow-up visit and 22.4% (n = 15/67) at the second follow-up visit. The most common side effects were injection site reactions in 17.0% (n = 19) and constipation in 8.0% (n = 9). Five patients (4.5%) discontinued because of side effects. CONCLUSIONS Side effects with calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibody treatment in adolescents were similar to those reported in adult trials. Calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibody treatment appears to benefit a proportion of adolescents with chronic refractory headache disorders.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health concern. Persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH) is a common consequence of TBI affecting productivity and quality of life. The only review providing information about headache prevalence after TBI was published in 2008, combined data from civilian and military TBI, and was strictly derived from Medline database. Due to recent changes in TBI diagnosis and trauma epidemiology, the aim of the current study is to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to derive updated prevalence estimates of persistent PTH in adult civilian TBI. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The methods have been defined following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Studies published from 2008 to 2019 will be identified searching the electronic databases Medline, Embase, Cochrane, Google Scholar, Directory of Open Access Journals and Web of Science. Retrieved records will be independently screened by two authors and relevant data will be extracted from studies reporting data on persistent PTH prevalence among civilian TBI individuals (≥16 years). The pooled prevalence estimates of any form of headache will be computed applying random-effects meta-analysis. Heterogeneity will be assessed using the I2 statistic and explored through subgroup analyses considering TBI severity (mild vs moderate/severe). Estimations of risk of bias will be performed using the Risk of Bias Tool for Prevalence Studies. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The result of this systematic review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and disseminated at relevant conferences presentations. Formal ethical approval is not required because we will search and evaluate only existing sources of literature. By focusing on studies conducted in the last decade, this review will provide the most up-to-date information about the global prevalence of persistent PTH after TBI. Considering the economical and social burden of persistent PTH after TBI, accurate estimates of this problematic disorder is of utmost importance for planning, implementing and evaluating prevention interventions.

Psychological Factors that Influence Decision-Making Regarding Trauma-Related Pain in Adolescents with Temporomandibular Disorder. Sci Rep 2019; 9:18728.

Abstract
We evaluated the clinical, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and psychological characteristics of adolescents with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and compared facial macrotrauma effects between young and older adolescents. This case–control study included 70 randomly selected patients (35 young adolescents aged 12–16 years and 35 older adolescents aged 17–19 years) who had been diagnosed with TMD. Each age group was further subdivided according to the presence (T1) or absence (T0) of a macrotrauma history. All patients completed questionnaires on temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain and dysfunction. We analyzed TMD severity symptoms using TMD-related indexes and the physical changes of TMJ using TMJ MR images. The Symptom Checklist-90-Revised was used to evaluate the patients’ psychological status. Anterior disc displacement was the most frequently observed MRI finding, occurring in a significant proportion of young (47 joints, 67.1%) and older adolescents (40 joints, 57.1%). The prevalence of all the MRI findings (disc displacement, disc deformity, condylar degeneration, and effusion) did not differ between the T0 and T1 subgroups among young and older adolescents. Conversely, the psychological factors differed significantly between the subgroups. Among young adolescents, the mean scores of somatization, obsessive-compulsiveness, hostility, phobic ideation, and psychosis were significantly higher in the T1 subgroup than in the T0 subgroup (all p < 0.05). Furthermore, these increased psychological scores positively correlated with TMD indexes. Clinicians should consider that a weakened psychological status could be an aggravating factor in young adolescents with TMD and should consider the implications in future assessment of such patients.

Thus, TBI interferes into normal processes of neuroontogenesis leading to negative consequences on the cognitive functions development, school education, social skills acquisition. Cognitive and behavioral disorders in children and adolescents in the long-term period of TBI become more prominent in co-occurrence with paroxysmal disorders, including posttraumatic headaches, posttraumatic epilepsy and subclinical epileptiform activity on the EEG. Therapeutic and rehabilitation procedures in in the long-term period of TBI in children and adolescents should be conducted not only during the first 12 months after injury, when they are expected to be the most efficient, but also later on taking into consideration continuing processes of the CNS morphological and functional maturation along with the high neuroplasticity of the developing brain.
