Abstract
There are many conditions associated with primary headaches, including mood (depression), anxiety, and sleep disorders, which are highly prevalent in the general population and in tertiary headache centers. We call this set of symptoms migraine, anxiety, mood, and sleep (MAMS). The presence of one or more of these symptoms can alter the clinical course and represent a practical challenge. In the present study, we aimed to describe a practical approach to treat these symptoms frequently associated with headaches. Diagnostic aspects and secondary causes were addressed as well as the shared mechanisms and cause and effect relationship. Finally, we commented on the therapeutic approach used to treat these symptoms.
期刊介绍:
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria is the official journal of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology. The mission of the journal is to provide neurologists, specialists and researchers in Neurology and related fields with open access to original articles (clinical and translational research), editorials, reviews, historical papers, neuroimages and letters about published manuscripts. It also publishes the consensus and guidelines on Neurology, as well as educational and scientific material from the different scientific departments of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology.
The ultimate goals of the journal are to contribute to advance knowledge in the areas of Neurology and Neuroscience, and to provide valuable material for training and continuing education for neurologists and other health professionals working in the area. These goals might contribute to improving care for patients with neurological diseases. We aim to be the best Neuroscience journal in Latin America within the peer review system.
