Valproic acid has been shown to be effective in migraine prophylaxis. Its method of action is believed to be the inhibition of gamma-aminobutyric acid transaminase. The therapeutic dose needed to prevent migraine headaches has been examined in several studies, yet the optimum dose has not been found. In this case report, valproic acid was given to a 24-year-old woman with chronic headaches at 1000 mg per day. Her headaches resolved for 2 months. She tapered herself off of the medication, and her headaches returned. She was restarted at 500 mg per day of valproic acid and again, her headaches resolved. She preferred being on the lower dose which she found as effective as the higher dose. Her case makes two interesting points. The first is that lower dosages of valproic acid may be as effective as higher ones in headache prophylaxis. The second is that more studies looking at dose ranges are needed to correlate effectiveness with daily requirements. 相似文献

AbstractFasting overnight has been traditionally recommended by clinicians when ordering laboratory tests for lipid profiles for the purposes of health screening or monitoring of the effects of lipid-lowering medications. Patients with diabetes are tested for lipid profiles at least annually. This deeply rooted tradition of fasting for lipid testing has recently been challenged. Several studies have shown little benefit obtained by testing lipids in fasting compared with postprandial states. Furthermore, recent studies have shown the importance of postprandial lipid spikes in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. At the same time, recent reports have alerted the medical community to the risk of hypoglycemia in patients with diabetes on antidiabetic medications (particularly insulin and sulfonylureas) who are asked to fast for lab tests. This article reviews the literature on these emerging issues in lipid testing in patients with diabetes, and offers recommendations for lipid testing in these patients in view of these emerging discussions. 相似文献

The symptoms of migraine are non‐specific and can be present in many other primary and secondary headache disorders, which are reviewed. Even experienced headache specialists may be challenged at times when diagnosing what appears to be first or worst, new type, migraine status, and chronic migraine. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To describe the efficacy and tolerability of rapid intravenous valproic acid (VPA) infusions in children with severe migraine headache. BACKGROUND: Intravenous VPA is an emerging treatment option for acute migraine headache. Adult data suggests both efficacy and tolerability of rapid VPA infusions as abortive therapy, but little data exist in children. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all children who received intravenous VPA at The Children's Hospital Headache Clinic during an 18--month study period. Baseline intensity of headache pain, time at which maximum relief was attained, pain reduction following therapy, dose and duration of VPA infusion(s), patient's pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and pulse oximetry were collected. Adverse events were also recorded. RESULTS: Thirty-one children (age=15+/- 2 years; 81% female) requiring 58 clinic visits and 71 VPA infusions were included. Most visits (n=45; 78%) resulted in only one dose of VPA (976+/- 85 mg infused over 12+/- 4 minutes) for desired pain relief. Percent pain reduction in those children was 39.8%, with time to maximum relief of 63+/- 31 minutes. Some children required a second dose of 500 mg (n=13 visits; 22%), that was infused over 14+/- 6 minutes and produced a 57% reduction in pain intensity from baseline. VPA infusions were well tolerated. Adverse events described included cold sensation (1), dizziness (3), nausea (1), possible absence seizure (1), paraesthesia (2), and tachycardia (2). CONCLUSIONS: Rapid infusion of intravenous VPA is generally well tolerated and may play a role in the management of children with acute migraine headache. Prospective, controlled trials to further investigate this treatment in children are warranted. 相似文献

Optimal glycemic control, an A1c < 7% for most patients, is necessary to reduce the risk for diabetes complications. However, tight glucose control carries a risk for hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia can be a frightening aspect of living with diabetes, causing harmful effects to the cardiovascular system and a decrease in quality of life. This article reviews the important aspects of hypoglycemia management from both the patient and provider perspective. Nurse practitioners (NPs) should understand the physiology behind glucose homeostasis and lead evidence-based discussions regarding medication timing and dose, physical activity/exercise, alcohol consumption, symptom management, treatment, and prevention of low blood glucoses. The management of special populations such as older adults, those with renal impairment, and pregnant women is included. In light of mounting evidence that hypoglycemia is harmful and should be avoided at all costs, NPs are well positioned to assist patients in identifying, managing, and preventing hypoglycemia. 相似文献

(Headache 2010;50:1031‐1040) Background.— Many studies support an association between migraine and cardiovascular disease (CVD). This association appears particularly in migraine with aura and is also modified by additional factors. Objective.— We sought to investigate whether the association between migraine and CVD in addition to aura status is affected by certain migraine features. Methods.— Cohort study among 27,840 women, participating in the Women's Health Study. We had detailed self‐reported information on migraine and migraine features among women with active migraine (migraine during the year prior to baseline). Incident CVD events were confirmed after medical record review. We used Cox proportional hazards models to evaluate the association between migraine and incident CVD. The results have been presented in part before. We ran additional analyses according to migraine features. Results.— At baseline, 5125 (18.4%) women reported history of migraine; 39.7% of the 3610 women with active migraine indicated aura. During a mean of 11.9 years of follow‐up, 708 CVD events occurred. Migraine with aura doubled the risk for CVD, ischemic stroke, and myocardial infarction. With regard to ischemic stroke, this association seemed stronger in the absence than in the presence of migraine features. This was most pronounced in the absence (hazard ratio = 3.27; 95% CI = 1.93‐5.51; P < .0001) than in the presence of nausea/vomiting (hazard ratio = 0.91; 95% CI = 0.43‐1.93; P = .80). In contrast, the association with myocardial infarction did not reveal a certain pattern. Conclusions.— These data suggest that the association between migraine with aura and ischemic stroke may differ by absence or presence of migraine features. 相似文献

Objective.— To characterize menstrually associated headaches and migraine in adolescent girls and identify any developmental and pubertal changes. Background.— Headache and migraine is a common problem in adolescents with a transition to adult patterns. One pattern of adult migraine is the menstrual association in a significant number of women. Methods.— A retrospective analysis was performed of characteristics of adolescent's headaches including association with menstrual pattern. A detailed analysis of the patient‐ and parent‐reported headache characteristics and patterns of longitudinal change with development and puberty was reviewed, including timing of headache with age and menstrual period and progression of these events over the adolescence. Results.— Of the 896 girls between 9 and 18 years old reviewed at initial evaluation, 331 (50.3% of menarchal girls and 36.9% of all girls) report experiencing headaches with their menstrual period. Of those reporting a menstrual pattern, 63.6% reported migraines starting between day ?2 and +3 of their menstrual period start. Girls with menstrual migraine reported increased associated symptoms compared with girls without menstrual migraine. There was no difference in disability between girls with a menstrual pattern and those without a menstrual pattern (t = 1.64; P = .10). Additionally, 160 girls reported a monthly pattern to their headaches prior to beginning menstruation, suggestive of a menstrually related migraine pattern prior to menstruation. Conclusions.— The pattern of menstrual association begins to become apparent during adolescence. Once the menstrual pattern has developed, this association is stable. Early identification of this pattern has potential long‐term benefit for improved lifelong outcome. 相似文献

BackgroundNoninsulinoma pancreatogenous hypoglycemia syndrome (NIPHS) is a rare syndrome characterized by postprandial hypoglycemia with neuroglycopenic symptoms occurring 1 to 3 h after a meal. Diagnosis can be elusive, as the vast majority of patients have normal fasting blood glucose levels, and onset of hypoglycemic episodes can be a late complication of gastric surgery.Case ReportWe report the case of a 45-year-old woman presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) with new-onset seizures and hypoglycemia worsened by glucose administration. Surgical history is pertinent for a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass approximately 10 years prior to presentation.Why Should an Emergency Physician Be Aware of This?Although rare, it is important for emergency physicians to be vigilant of this disease process as a traditional treatment approach for hypoglycemia may be detrimental. Although cases of NIPHS have been documented in literature, its presence in emergency medicine-specific literature is seemingly nonexistent. Noninvasive imaging techniques will be normal, and diagnosis is dependent on awareness of this disease entity coupled with a detailed history. 相似文献

Divalproex sodium is an anticonvulsant agent approved for use either alone or in combination with other antiepileptic drugs for simple and complex absence seizures and mania. Four double-blind placebo-controlled studies have confirmed that divalproex sodium/valproate is an effective migraine treatment. In all of the clinical studies, whether open, retrospective, or placebo-controlled and double-blind, valproate was an effective preventive treatment for migraine. There was a reduction in the number of migraine attacks, and migraine duration and intensity were also reduced in some instances. It is equally as effective in patients with severe frequent migraines as in those with less severe migraines. In clinical trials, the most frequent adverse events reported by patients treated with divalproex sodium were nausea, asthenia, dyspepsia, dizziness, somnolence, and diarrhea, with most adverse events being mild to moderate in severity. 相似文献

SYNOPSIS
Retinal migraine is not uncommon, but permanent sequelae are rare. We describe the case of a 23-year-old woman who had suffered from retinal migraine for five years. After a typical migraine attack a left nasal quadranopsia persisted. Fluorescein angiography showed a branch retinal arterial occlusion. Other causes were ruled out by appropriate laboratory techniques. Her visual field defect has persisted for eleven months. 相似文献

Three cases are reported of hypoglycemia manifested by profound sinus bradycardia and fatigue, which responded to IV dextrose with prompt normalization of the cardiac rhythm. The cases involved 3 different patients and disease processes: a young female who had anorexia nervosa and profound malnutrition; an elderly, nondiabetic male who subsequently experienced a transient ischemic attack; and a patient who had diabetes mellitus managed with chronic, subcutaneous insulin administration. It is vitally important that the emergency physician recognize unusual clinical manifestations of hypoglycemia and fully evaluate such scenarios when hypoglycemia may occur. Untreated, hypoglycemia may result in significant chronic morbidity, and rarely, in death. Bradyarrhythmias–particularly sinus bradycardia–should be added to the list of potential clinical manifestations of hypoglycemia. 相似文献

Eighty-five percent of migraineurs report triggers which include a diverse array of internal and external factors. Crying as a trigger has been reported in two women, without details, in only one prior study. In the present report, the clinical history of two women (aged 38 and 41 years, respectively) with migraines triggered by crying are detailed. In both women, the migraines were triggered by crying associated with sadness or emotional upset. Crying when happy or due to cutting onions was not a trigger. Only in the second patient was crying during a sad movie or theatrical production also a trigger. Crying may be a common underrecognized migraine trigger. 相似文献
