Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Sumatriptan nasal spray in adolescent migraineurs: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, acute study.
To compare the efficacy and tolerability of sumatriptan nasal spray (NS) (5, 20 mg) versus placebo in the acute treatment of migraine in adolescent subjects. ⋯ This study suggests that sumatriptan may be beneficial to some adolescents and is generally well tolerated in the acute treatment of migraine in this population.

Rofecoxib in the acute treatment of migraine: a randomized controlled clinical trial.

To compare the clinical characteristics of familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM), sporadic hemiplegic migraine (SHM), and nonhemiplegic migraine with aura (NHMA) and further, to compare subtypes of NHMA. ⋯ The present study proves that distinct subtypes of migraine with aura exist. It further underlines the phenotypic differences between the different subtypes of migraine with aura which likely are caused by different etiological mechanisms. In future studies FHM, SHM, and NHMA therefore should be analyzed as separate entities and patients with NHMA may be stratified by ICHD-2 subtype of NHMA.
