    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • Migraine is a complex neurological disorder with several recognized classifications.
    • Migraine variants involve episodic dysfunctions that may occur with or replace headache episodes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide an overview of the current understanding of migraine classification.
    • To explore potential etiological factors and treatment modalities for migraine.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of established migraine classifications.
    • Discussion of current research into biochemical and physiological factors involved in migraine.

    Main Results:

    • The widely accepted classification includes common, classic, complicated, and cluster migraines.
  • Migraine is hypothesized to be a primary disorder of cerebral vessels.
  • Research is exploring the roles of serotonin, prostaglandins, platelets, and estrogen in migraine.
  • Conclusions:

    • Migraine management involves various treatment options, including nonnarcotic and narcotic medications.
    • Prophylactic treatments may be indicated for certain migraine sufferers.
