Resumen
La migraña es un trastorno neurobiológico común que afecta la calidad de vida. Los tratamientos agudos eficaces como los triptanos y las terapias preventivas pueden reducir la frecuencia de la migraña y mejorar el bienestar del paciente.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Neurología Neurología.
- La neurociencia es la neurociencia.
- Dolor de cabeza Medicina Medicina para el dolor de cabeza
Sus antecedentes:
- La migraña es un trastorno prevalente de dolor de cabeza neurobiológico caracterizado por la hiperexcitabilidad del sistema nervioso central (SNC).
- Es una de las principales causas de discapacidad en todo el mundo, afectando significativamente la calidad de vida, el trabajo y el funcionamiento social de los pacientes.
- El diagnóstico se basa en los patrones característicos de dolor de cabeza y los síntomas que lo acompañan.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para proporcionar una visión general de la migraña como una condición neurológica incapacitante.
- Para discutir los criterios de diagnóstico actuales y el impacto socioeconómico sustancial de la migraña.
- Revisar las estrategias de tratamiento agudo y preventivo existentes y resaltar la necesidad de un mayor desarrollo terapéutico.
Principales métodos:
- Esta revisión sintetiza información sobre la fisiopatología, el diagnóstico y el tratamiento de la migraña.
- Examina la eficacia de los tratamientos agudos, incluidos agentes específicos (triptanos, ergotas) y analgésicos no específicos.
- Se discute el papel de los tratamientos preventivos para reducir la frecuencia de la migraña y mejorar la calidad de vida.
Principales resultados:

01:29Blood and Nerve Supply to the Bones
Bones are dynamic organs that require a rich supply of oxygen and nutrients. Around 5% to 10% of the cardiac output supplies blood to the bones. A typical long bone has three main sources: the nutrient artery, the metaphyseal and epiphyseal arteries, and the periosteal arteries.
Nutrient Artery
The nutrient artery is the main blood vessel that enters the diaphysis via the nutrient foramen. While most long bones have only one nutrient foramen, large bones, such as the femur, may have two. This...

01:19Muscles that Move the Head
The muscles that move the head are a dynamic and complex group of structures that work together to facilitate a wide range of head movements, including rotation, flexion, extension, and lateral bending.
The bilateral sternocleidomastoid, or SCM, and the suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles are significant head flexors. The SCM muscles originate at the sternum and clavicle and attach to the mastoid process of the temporal bone. The SCM contracts bilaterally to bend the head forward, whereas...

01:15Equilibrium and Balance
The inner ear assumes dual functionalities of auditory perception and equilibrium maintenance. The vestibule is the organ responsible for balance. This organ contains mechanoreceptors, specifically hair cells, endowed with stereocilia, which aid in deciphering information regarding the position and motion of our heads. Two intrinsic components, the utricle and saccule, help perceive head position, while the semicircular canals track head movement. Neurological messages initiated in the...
01:20Pain
Pain serves as a critical warning signal that alerts the body to potential or actual harm. When mechanical pressure on the skin is intense, such as from a sharp pinch, the sensation transitions from touch to pain. Similarly, extreme temperatures, like a hot pot handle, convert the sensation of heat into pain. Pain can also result from overstimulation of other senses, such as blinding light, loud noise, or the intense heat from habañero peppers. This ability to sense pain is essential for...
01:20Chickenpox
Chickenpox is an acute, highly contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), a double-stranded DNA virus belonging to the Herpesviridae family. Its transmission occurs primarily through the inhalation of respiratory droplets or direct contact with vesicular fluid from skin lesions. The incubation period typically ranges from 10 to 21 days, during which the virus replicates and disseminates through sequential phases within the host. Although generally self-limiting in children,...
01:29Herniated Intervertebral Disc l: Introduction
Intervertebral disc herniation refers to the displacement of the nucleus pulposus (the gel-like inner core of the disc) through a tear or weakened area in the annulus fibrosus (the outer fibrous ring). The displaced disc material extends beyond the normal boundaries of the disc space and may compress or irritate nearby spinal nerve roots or, less commonly, the spinal cord.Etiology and Risk FactorsHerniation commonly results from degeneration, in which aging reduces disc hydration and...
