TL;DR: Using either nutritional supplement for two months can help in decreasing the monthly number of headache episodes and night awakenings, and the addition of tryptophan appears to have stronger influence on night awakening reduction than melatonin only.

Practice parameter: Evidence-based guidelines for migraine headache (an evidence-based review) Report of the Quality Standards Subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology
TL;DR: This practice parameter summarizes the results from the four evidence-based reviews on the management of patients with migraine: specifically, acute, preventive, and nonpharmacologic treatments for migraine, and the role of neuroimaging in patients with headache.

Practice parameter: Evaluation of children and adolescents with recurrent headaches Report of the Quality Standards Subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology and the Practice Committee of the Child Neurology Society
TL;DR: Recurrent headaches occur commonly in children and are diagnosed on a clinical basis rather than by any testing, so the routine use of any diagnostic studies is not indicated when the clinical history has no associated risk factors and the child’s examination is normal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurobiology of migraine.
TL;DR: Brain imaging studies in migraine point to the importance of sub-cortical structures in the underlying pathophysiology of the disorder, and migraine may be considered an inherited dysfunction of sensory modulatory networks with the dominant disturbance affecting abnormal processing of essentially normal neural traffic.

Migraine headaches and sleep disturbances in children.
TL;DR: The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of sleep disturbances in children with migraine headaches and to describe individual differences in sleep behaviors based on headache features.
