2003 MAR 13 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Neurogenic factors drive neurological deficits in pregnancy migraines.

According to recent research from the United States, "the pathophysiology of the neurological deficits in hemiplegic migraine remains unclear. Both neurogenic and vascular etiologies have been proposed to explain this phenomenon."

"We present the case of a patient with hemiplegic migraine in whom there was no diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging evidence of cerebral ischemia, despite persistent left hemiplegia and diffuse vasospasm on cerebral angiography, there was no diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging evidence of cerebral ischemia," wrote P. Gonzalez-Alegre and colleagues, University of Iowa, College of Medicine.
