“…In addition, migraine attacks are often accompanied by nausea and/or vomiting, photophobia, phonophobia, etc. Migraine is high morbidity, procrastinating, and refractory, severely affecting the ability to work and quality of life [1–5]. The epidemiological study from the United States shows that the lifelong cumulative inDcidence of migraine is 7.4% in males and 21% in females [6].…”

Objective. To evaluate the efficacy of traditional Chinese herbal ChuanXiong Ding Tong herbal formula granule (CXDT-HFG) for migraine patients with “the Syndrome of Liver Wind and Blood Stasis.” Methods. 150 migraine patients were recruited and assigned randomly in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study to receive CXDT-HFG (n = 99) plus necessary analgesics, or placebo (n = 51) plus necessary analgesics for 16 weeks (12 weeks' intervention and 4 weeks' follow up). Outcome measures included migraine days, frequency of migraine attacks, analgesics consumption for acute treatment, and the proportion of responders as well as the visual analogue scale (VAS) scores and intensity for pain. Results. Compared with the placebo group, the CXDT-HFG group showed significant reduction in migraine days and attacks frequency at week 12 and follow-up period (P < 0.05) as well as in the reduction of VAS scores at follow-up period.There was significant difference in the proportion of responders between the two groups at follow-up period (P = 0.014). However there were no significant differences between the two groups in analgesics consumption (P > 0.05). Conclusion. CXDT-HFG was more effective than placebo in decreasing days of migraine attacks, frequency, VAS scores, and relieving pain intensity for migraine patients.

“…However, according to the patient’s history, there appeared to be a complete resolution of his impulsivity for the next 10 years of his life. Also in his case, it seems unclear if there could be a correlation with the intracerebral small vessel disease, migraine diagnosis, and the recurring onset of mood dysregulation in his middle adulthood [ 15 - 16 ].…”

Perinatal hypoxia due to obstetric complications has been known to cause neurodevelopmental impairments in infants and children. The severity of the impairments and recovery depends on the degree of hypoxia. There have been some studies which focuses on understanding the effects of perinatal hypoxia on cognitive and behavioral functioning like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), learning disorders, or aggression. Although the studies have investigated the effects in children, there are very few studies done to explore perinatal hypoxia, causing any neuropsychiatric outcomes in adults. This is a case of a 38-year-old man who presented to psychiatry as a referral for depression by neurology. He saw neurology for intractable migraine resistant to all treatment for the last year. The brain imaging was read as normal with minor small vascular changes. During our assessment, he reported depression and passive suicidal ideation, which began since he was diagnosed with migraines. His developmental history was significant for perinatal asphyxia and learning difficulties. Growing up, he reported severe irritability, impulsivity, and risk-taking behaviors but became stable when he was in his late twenties. His past psychiatric management was unclear. He was seeing an outpatient therapist when he visited our clinic. We diagnosed him with an unspecified mood disorder, tried prozac, and then gabapentin with some effect. Before we could explore further medication trials with topamax, his care had to be transferred to other psychiatrists, and we could not obtain further details of his outcome. Based on our case, we concluded there is a need for further research focused on the effects of perinatal hypoxia on certain brain areas as a cause of neuropsychiatric symptoms in adults.

Background There is a paucity of research on the prevalence of diagnosed as well as undiagnosed neurological disorders with episodic manifestations such as epilepsy and migraine headaches in people with severe psychiatric disorders (SPD). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study analyzing and comparing the prevalence of diagnosed and undiagnosed chronic neurological disorders with episodic manifestations including epilepsy and migraine headache in people with SPD. Method This quantitative cross-sectional survey was undertaken among 309 patients with SPD selected by a systematic random sampling technique. The Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders (SCID) was used to confirm SPD among the participants. The International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD-3) and International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) were used to define migraine headache and epilepsy, respectively]. Risk factors for chronic neurologic disorders were explored by using logistic regression models. Result In this study, the prevalence of overall neurological disorders, epilepsy, and migraine headache among people with SPD were found to be 5.2% (95%CI 3.2–8.3), 1.6% (95%CI 0.7–3.9), and 3.9% (95%CI 2.2–6.7), respectively. We found that a considerably higher proportion of people with SPD had undiagnosed overall neurological disorder (87.5%; 14/16), epilepsy (60%; 3/5), as well as migraine headaches (100%; 12/12). On the other hand, in this study, 12.5%, 40%, and 0% of patients with overall neurologic disorder, epilepsy, and migraine headaches respectively were diagnosed by the professionals. Higher disability score (WHODAS score) was associated with increased odds of having neurological disorders compared with the lower WHODAS score [OR = 1.30 (95% CI 1.02–1.66)]. Conclusion Whilst the prevalence estimates of neurological disorders with episodic manifestations including epilepsy and migraine headache was high among people with SPD, the vast majority of them remained undiagnosed. The diagnosis rates of those disorders were significantly low, perhaps surprisingly zero for migraine headache. High WHODAS score was associated with increased odds of having neurological disorders. Routine screening and management of epilepsy and migraine headache are imperative among people with SPD.
