  • Title: [Changes in the cerebral hemodynamics of migraine in children during the interictal period].
    Author: Gromova LL, Vasil'eva LK.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1983; 83(10):1496-9. PubMed ID: 6659783.
    Abstract:
    The rheoencephalographic and ophthalmodynamometric studies conducted by the authors ascertained significant changes in the cerebral hemodynamics in children with migraine in the interictal period. These changes included a decreased tone of large cerebral vessels, particularly in the vertebral-basilar system with a simultaneous tendency toward the constriction of the end branches of the internal carotid arteries which was reflected in the parameters of the dicrotic index of the rheoencephalograms as well as in an elevated pressure in the ocular artery. The methods indicated allow the researchers to gain important information on the status of cerebral hemodynamics while diagnosing migraine; this may be used as the basis for the pathogenetic therapy of the disease.
