A ‘complex’ of brain metabolites distinguish altered chemistry in the cingulate cortex of episodic migraine patients

A ‘complex’ of brain metabolites distinguish altered chemistry in the cingulate cortex of episodic migraine patients

Despite the prevalence of migraine, the pathophysiology of the disease remains unclear. Current understanding of migraine has alluded to the possibility of a hyperexcitable brain. The aim of the current study is to investigate human brain metabolite differences in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)...
