TLDR
Differences in interictal PACAP levels in migraine and TTH are demonstrated, suggesting that PACAP is involved in the pathogenesis of migraine rather than TTH.

Human models of migraine - short-term pain for long-term gain.

TL;DR: The existing experimental models of migraine in humans, including those that exploit nitric oxide, histamine, neuropeptide and prostaglandin signalling, are summarized and the development and use of these models in the discovery of molecular pathways that are responsible for initiation of migraine attacks are described.

PACAP and its role in primary headaches

TL;DR: It is suggested that the activation of the trigeminal system may result in elevated venous levels of PACAP, a change that can be reduced when headache is treated, and PACAP and its receptors may be promising targets for migraine therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic migraine: A process of dysmodulation and sensitization.

TL;DR: The latest data is reviewed to outline the clinical feature, pathophysiological mechanism, and management of chronic migraine, in the expectation to provide direction for future research and finally to take good care of Chronic migraine patients.

Neuropeptides as a Marker for Chronic Headache

TL;DR: Current data on TVS neuropeptides as potential migraine biomarkers must be taken with caution, even for the promising case of CGRP, as there are no data for other parasympathetic peptides.

Perivascular neurotransmitters: Regulation of cerebral blood flow and role in primary headaches.

TL;DR: A literature review with particular emphasis on the role of perivascular neurotransmitters supports a role for the vasculature in primary headache disorders.

The Global Burden of Headache: A Documentation of Headache Prevalence and Disability Worldwide:

TL;DR: The calculations indicate that the disability attributable to tension-type headache is larger worldwide than that due to migraine, which would bring headache disorders into the 10 most disabling conditions for the two genders, and into the five most disabling for women.
