論文抄録
BACKGROUND: The aim of the present study was to compare cranial arteries blood flow velocity as measured by means of transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) with mean regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) as measured by means of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in migraine with and without aura during headache-free periods and spontaneous and/or induced attacks. METHODS: Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and systematic ultrasonic Doppler flow were studied by Technetium-99m hexamethylpropilaminoxime (99mTc-HM-PAO) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) respectively in controls (n=14) and in migraine with (n=13) and without aura (n=35) during headache free-intervals and spontaneous/histamine-induced attacks. RESULTS: In the migraine without aura group, Doppler flow examinations of the common carotid artery, external and internal carotid artery, ophthalmic artery and middle cerebral artery bilaterally did not reveal significant changes as compared with controls. During attacks, TCD examinations showed a moderate, although not statistically significant, reduction of blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery and in the internal carotid artery bilaterally as related to the interictal phase, concomitant with an increase of the flow velocity in the ophthalmic and external carotid artery. SPECT of these patients did not show, on the average, rCBF asymmetries during pain-free periods, although positive findings (i.e., focal hypoperfusion) were found in approximately half of the cases. During attacks, 74% of patients displayed a unilateral hypoperfusion, mainly in the occipital region. Low-flow areas were generally but not always consistent with the site of pain. In the migraine with aura group, significant reduction of blood flow velocity in middle cerebral artery was recorded by TCD on the affected side during attacks, as compared with the pain-free side. Hypoperfusion was registered between attacks by SPECT in approximately 2/3 of the patients. During attacks, a marked reduction of rCBF occurred in most patients (85%), mainly in the parieto-occipital region. The posterior rCBF asymmetries revealed at the SPECT and consistent with the general reduction of blood flow velocity documented by TCD may be related to cerebrovascular tone instability. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings do not support the paradigm that migraine with and without aura are two different entities.

  E.Interictal SPECT with Tc-99m HMPAO studies in migraine patients.

論文抄録

Migraine is considered to be a functional neurological disorder. For several years cerebral blood flow studies have been fueling the controversy surrounding the pathophysiology of migraine headache. Tc-99m HMPAO SPECT brain imaging was performed during the headache-free period in 44 migraineurs. The findings were compared with those of age 17 and sex-matched controls. The SPECT analysis was performed by using a 360 degrees rotating single head gamma camera system (Toshiba GCA 602A/SA, Japan), equipped with a LEAP collimator, interfaced to a Toshiba computer system, after 20 minutes following the injection of 350-550 MBq of Tc-99m HMPAO. The SPECT images revealed clear interhemispheric asymmetry in the upper frontal and occipital parts of the brain in migraineurs. It is suggested that an impaired regional cerebral vascular autoregulation may exist even during headache-free intervals in patients suffering from migraine.

  visually triggered headache in patients with migraine. Arch Neurol. 1999   May;56(5):548-54.

論文抄録

BACKGROUND: Spreading depression of Leao has been hypothesized as the basis for the visual aura of the migraine attack, supported by cerebral blood flow measurements of spreading hypoperfusion. The early depolarizing or activation phase of experimental spreading depression, however, is associated with a transient but pronounced cerebral blood flow increase that precedes spreading hypoperfusion. OBJECTIVE: To study this early phase of the migraine attack, we investigated visually triggered attacks of headache and visual symptoms using a red-green checkerboard stimulus in patients with migraine. INTERVENTIONS: We studied occipital cortex activation during visual stimulation by measuring occipital cortex perfusion with functional magnetic resonance imaging-blood oxygenation level-dependent contrast in 10 patients with migraine with aura and 2 patients with migraine without aura and 6 healthy subjects. RESULTS: In 6 patients with migraine with aura and 2 patients with migraine without aura, their typical headache with (n = 2) or without visual change was visually triggered at 7.3 minutes (mean time) after visual stimulation began. In 5 of these patients, the onset of headache or visual change, or both, was preceded by suppression of initial activation (mean onset time, 4.3 minutes; P<.001) The suppression slowly propagated into contiguous occipital cortex at a rate ranging from 3 to 6 mm/ min. This neuronal suppression was accompanied by baseline contrast intensity increases that indicated vasodilatation and tissue hyperoxygenation. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that visually triggered headache and visual change in patients with migraine is accompanied by spreading suppression of initial neuronal activation and increased occipital cortex oxygenation. We postulate that this spreading suppression may be associated with initial activation of a migraine attack, independent of whether there are associated aura symptoms. We further postulate that there may be an association between vasodilation accompanying the initial stage of suppression and the induction of headache.

論文抄録

Cortical spreading depression (CSD) is a well-characterized phenomenon in experimental animals. Recent data show that CSD actually can occur in the injured human brain and compelling evidence is accumulating to support the concept that CSD is responsible for migraine aura. The aim of this review is to highlight recent key advances regarding our understanding of CSD in animal and human studies and its relevance to the pathophysiology of migraine and its potential treatment options.

  defects during spontaneous migrainous aura. Ann Neurol. 1998
  Jan;43(1):25-31.

論文抄録

Perfusion- and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging was performed during spontaneous visual auras in four migraineurs. Alterations in relative cerebral blood flow (16-53% decrease), cerebral blood volume (6-33% decrease), and tissue mean transit time (10-54% increase) were observed in the gray matter of occipital cortex contralateral to the affected visual hemifield. No changes in the apparent diffusion coefficient were observed either while the patients were symptomatic or after resolution of the visual symptoms but before the onset of headache. Functional magnetic resonance imaging can be a useful noninvasive tool to study hemodynamic changes during spontaneous attacks of migraine with aura.

  aura and headache. Cephalalgia. 1999 Oct;19(8):701-7.

論文抄録

Using perfusion weighted imaging, we studied 28 spontaneous migraine episodes; 7 during visual aura (n = 6), 7 during the headache phase following visual aura (n = 3), and 14 cases of migraine without aura (n = 13). The data were analyzed using a region-of-interest-based approach. During aura, relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was significantly decreased (27% +/- 0.07) in occipital cortex contralateral to the affected hemifield. rCBV was decreased (15% +/- 0.12) and mean transit time increased (32% +/- 0.3), persisting up to 2.5 h into the headache phase. Other brain regions did not show significant perfusion changes. During migraine without aura, no significant hemodynamic changes were observed. In one patient who experienced both migraine with and without aura, perfusion deficits were observed only during migraine with aura. These findings suggest that decremental blood flow changes in occipital lobe are most characteristic of migraine with aura.
