    Abstract Primary trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (TACs) are uncommon group of headache disorders. These are defined and diagnosed by the criteria given by the International Classification of Headache Disorders 3β version. Over the past few decades, a number of secondary (symptomatic) cases have been described in the literature with headache features indistinguishable from primary TACs. Many structural and other pathologies have been found in these patients that can be causally related to the headaches. This review attempts to critically analyze the existing literature including the new cases published during 2015-2017.

    Abstract As a common headache disorder, migraine is also a common cause for emergency department (ED) visiting, which leads to tremendous medical and economic burden. The goals of migraine management in ED are resolving headache and migraine-related most bothersome symptoms rapidly, preventing ED revisiting due to headache relapse, and referring patients at risk, e.g., patients with chronic migraine and/or medication-overuse headache, to specialists. In this chapter, we elucidated the algorithm which was particularly adapted to ED settings for the diagnosis and treatment of migraine. We reviewed a plentiful amount of high-quality clinical trials, especially those conducted in populations derived from ED, to provide readers insights into the optimized treatment options for migraine in ED.

    Abstract When users in a digital library read or browse online resources, it generates an immense amount of data. If the underlying system can recommend items, such as books and journals, to the users, it will help them to find the related items. This research analyzes a digital library's usage data to recommend items to its users, and it uses different clustering algorithms to design the recommender system. We have used content-based clustering, including hierarchical, expectation maximization (EM), K-mean, FarthestFirst, and density-based clustering algorithms, and user access pattern-based clustering, which uses a hypergraph-based approach to generate the clusters. This research shows that the recommender system designed using the hypergraph algorithm generates the most accurate recommendation model compared to those designed using the content-based clustering approaches.

  8. Article ; Online: Burden, Disability and Public Health Importance of Headache Disorders in India.

    Abstract Headache disorders, characterized by recurrent headache, are among the most common disorders of the nervous system. The aim of this study was to document epidemiological and economic burden due to headache globally and in India and suggest a public health approach to address headache disorders for India. We reviewed the available literature on burden due to headache, its management using a primary health care approach and health system barriers, with special emphasis on India. Globally, it has been estimated that prevalence of current headache disorder (symptomatic within last year) among adults is about 50%, around 30% report migraine and headache on 15 or more days every month affects 1.7-4% people. The Global Burden of Disease Study 2016 estimated that migraine caused 45·1 million (95% UI 29·0-62·8) and tension-type headache 7·2 million (95% UI 4·6-10·5) years of life lived with disability. Limited data available in India support such high burden. These studies also indicate high diagnostic and treatment gaps for headache disorders in India. Major challenges in addressing headache disorders effectively in India are low perceived severity, absence of burden data, lack of standard treatment protocols for headache disorders and primary care models for neurological disorders in developing country context. There needs to be a better appreciation of the burden and a public health approach among all stakeholders, if burden of headache disorders is to be addressed effectively in India.

    Abstract Background: Short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks with conjunctival injection and tearing (SUNCT) and short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache with autonomic symptoms (SUNA) are rare and disabling primary headache disorders that are subtypes of Short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks (SUNHA).
    Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to provide a comprehensive update on headache phenotype, pathophysiology, and various treatment options available for SUNCT and SUNA.
    Methods: References for this review were identified by searches of articles published in the English language in PubMed between 1978 and October 2020 using "short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks with conjunctival injection and tearing (SUNCT)", "short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache with autonomic symptoms (SUNA)", "short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks (SUNHA)", "trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias" as keywords in various combinations.
    Results: Of a potential 1103 articles, seven case series describing clinical characteristics of SUNCT/SUNA patients were identified for this review. For symptomatic/secondary SUNCT/SUNA, 53 individual case reports, and one case series were reviewed. One placebo-controlled trial and 11 open-label case series that evaluated various medical and surgical treatments in SUNCT/SUNA were also reviewed. Available literature suggests that SUNCT and SUNA are subtypes of the same disorder characterized by severe side locked short duration headache with ipsilateral prominent cranial autonomic symptoms and signs. Pathophysiology may involve both peripheral and central mechanisms. Lamotrigine is the most effective preventive therapy while intravenous lidocaine is the most efficacious drug as transitional therapy for severe disabling attacks. Surgical options including microvascular decompression in those having neurovascular conflict, occipital nerve stimulation, and hypothalamic deep brain stimulation can be alternative treatment options for medically refractory patients.

    Abstract Background: Knowledge of the prevalence and attributable burden of headache disorders in India is sparse, with only two recent population-based studies from South and East India. These produced conflicting results. A study in North India is needed. We report the methodology of such a study using, and validating, a Hindi translation of the Headache-Attributed Restriction, Disability, Social Handicap, and Impaired Participation (HARDSHIP) questionnaire developed by Lifting The Burden (LTB). Almost half of the Indian population speak Hindi or one of its dialects.
    Methods: The study adopted LTB's standardized protocol for population-based studies in a cross-sectional survey using multistage random sampling conducted in urban Delhi and a surrounding rural area. Trained interviewers visited households unannounced, randomly selected one adult member from each and applied the Hindi version of HARDSHIP in face-to-face interviews. The most bothersome headache reported by participants was classified algorithmically into headache on ≥ 15 days/month (H15 +), migraine (including definite and probable) or tension-type headache (including definite and probable). These diagnoses were mutually exclusive. All participants diagnosed with H15 + and a 10% subsample of all others were additionally assessed by headache specialists and classified as above. We estimated the sensitivity and specificity of HARDSHIP diagnoses by comparison with the specialists' diagnoses.
    Results: From 3,040 eligible households, 2,066 participants were interviewed. The participating proportions were 98.3% in rural areas but 52.9% in urban Delhi. In the validation subsample of 291 participants (149 rural, 142 urban), 61 did not report any headache (seven of those assessed by HARDSHIP, eight by headache specialists and 46 by both) [kappa = 0.83; 95% CI: 0.74-0.91]. In the remaining 230 participants who reported headache in the preceding year, sensitivity, specificity and kappa with (95% CI) were 0.73 (0.65-0.79), 0.80 (0.67-0.90) and 0.43 (0.34-0.58) for migraine; 0.71 (0.56-0.83), 0.80 (0.730.85) and 0.43 (0.37-0.62) for TTH and 0.75 (0.47-0.94), 0.93 (0.89-0.96) and 0.46 (0.34-0.58) for H15 + respectively.
    Conclusion: This study validates the Hindi version of HARDSHIP, finding its performance similar to those of other versions. It can be used to conduct population surveys in other Hindi-speaking regions of India.
