Traditionally, progression = episodic → chronic migraine (4.7%). But new definitions show higher rates: - 9.6% had ≥5 more headache days - 21.7% had increased disability (MIDAS +5) This expanded view could reshape ICHD classification! Link to our study 👉rb.gy/xlcp7n

Honored to present our new findings on post-#COVID headache and brain fog at this year’s #AANAM in #SanDiego. Grateful for our team members’ efforts and hope the work helps deepen understanding of #LongCOVID, a condition still lacking evidence-based treatment options.

Honored to co-author editorial on non-opioid options for chronic pain. With approval of suzetrigine (NaV1.8 inhibitor), we highlight the urgent need for safer, evidence-based, and multimodal approaches to pain care #ChronicPain #NonOpioid #PainManagement👇 shorturl.at/uo2Nc

I have some patients with refractory VSS. The study might provide insights into their treatment- based on the proposed mechanism.

Wrapping up April: my son’s birthday party, two talks at the annual meetings of American Academy of Neurology #AANAM and Taiwan Neurological Society, delivered a few other presentations, taught at NCYU, duties of headache societies, and enjoyed a road trip in San Diego.

This study demonstrated the effectiveness of atogepant in preventing migraine after a 12-week treatment in real life conditions. • Only three out of 106 patients discontinued treatment for adverse events. • Moreover, 43% of patients previously resistant to anti-CGRP mAbs

First US population-based survey on CGRP mAb use in migraine now out! Only 5% had ever used them. Top predictors: acute med use, triptan contraindications. Real-world insights to guide personalized care 👉 shorturl.at/uozbx #Migraine #CGRP #Headache Cephalalgia
