Abstract

Migraine, a common chronic-intermittent disorder of idiopathic origin characterized by severe debilitating headaches and autonomic nervous system dysfunction, and preeclampsia, a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, share many common epidemiological and pathophysiological characteristics. Both conditions are associated with higher subsequent risk of ischemic stroke. Moreover, endothelial dysfunction, platelet activation, hyper-coagulation, and inflammation are common to both disorders. We assessed the risk for preeclampsia in relation to the maternal history of migraine before and during pregnancy in Peruvian women. Cases consisted of 339 women with preeclampsia, and controls were 337 normotensive women. During in-person interviews conducted at delivery, women were asked whether they had physician-diagnosed migraines, and they were asked questions that allowed for headaches and migraines to be classified according to criteria established by the International Headache Society (IHS). Logistic regression procedures were used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). A history of any headache before or during pregnancy was associated with a 2.4-fold increased risk for preeclampsia (OR = 2.4; 95% CI 1.7-3.3)....Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.
