Cortical excitability in migraine

2000-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Cortical hyperexcitability in migraine has been suggested to play a pivotal role in triggering migraine attacks, possibly via generation of spreading depression. Low levels of plasma, intracellular and brain magnesium as well as increased amplitudes of visual evoked potentials support this theory. More recent data on evoked and even related potentials, i. e. lack of habituation and low initial amplitudes during re...
