Headache severity, pulsating quality, aggravation by movement, nausea, vomiting, photophobia and phonophobia was not significant according to sleep duration.
Unilateral pain, pulsating quality, aggravation by routine physical activity, nausea, vomiting, photophobia and phonophopbia were not significant according to EDS.
The ICHD diagnostic criteria for migraine in adults specify recurrent moderate-to-severe headache of 4 72 h' duration, with a range of specific characteristics (unilaterality, pulsating quality, aggravation by physical activity) and accompanying symptoms (photophobia and phonophobia; nausea and/or vomiting) [6].
Afterward headache intensity, characteristics (unilateral/bilateral, quality and aggravation by physical activity), accompanying symptoms (nausea/vomiting, phono- and photophobia) and side effects were scored on a self-administered questionnaire.
Based on the ICHD-2 diagnostic criteria, the diagnosis of TTH was made when subjects had experienced ten or more attacks in a lifetime, which had lasted from 30 minutes to 7 days each and were accompanied by at least two of the following four pain characteristics: mild-to-moderate intensity, bilateral location, non-pulsating quality, and no aggravation by routine physical activity.
Subjects with TTH defined by the alternative criteria had headaches showing a more bilateral location, non-pulsating quality, and non-aggravation by movement, and less osmophobia compared with those defined by the standard criteria.
The HUNT 2 questionnaire had no question about pain intensity, and accordingly the criterion C was modified requiring only at least one of the following three characteristics: pulsating quality, unilateral location, or aggravation by physical activity [8].
Typical characteristics of the migraine headache are unilateral location, pulsating quality, moderate or severe intensity, aggravation by routine physical activity, and association with nausea and/or photophobia, and phonophobia [4].
Migraine is a recurrent headache disorder that manifests itself in attacks lasting 4 72 h; typical characteristics of migraine are unilateral location, pulsating quality, moderate or severe intensity, aggravation by routine activity and association with nausea and/or photophobia and phonophobia.
With all that is at stake compromises in quality and access to health care, aggravation of tensions over health (care) as a resource, the problem of unwilling governments the burden of proof lies with this approach to show how it will achieve transformative objectives without compromising the lives and health of those in need of care in fragile settings.
The diagnostic criteria for TTH in ICHD-3 beta might result in inclusion of individuals with headaches showing unilateral pain, pulsatile qualities, moderate-to-severe intensity, and aggravation by movement.
