CGRP Induced Migraine Attacks in Patients With High and Low Genetic Load

ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2013

40 participants

Abstract

The investigators hypothesized that migraine without patients with many genetic loci associated with migraine (high genetic load) would be more sensitive and get provoked more migraine attacks by calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) compared to patients with few genetic loci associated with migraine (low genetic load).

Conditions: Migraine Without Aura.

Primary outcome: CGRP induced migraine attacks in patients with high and low genetic load.

Enrollment: 40 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 40 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
