Headache Symptom

In part I, the prevalence and clinical characteristics of headache in ischemic cerebrovascular disease were reviewed. In this part, we describe the potential mechanisms of head pain and the value of the headache symptom as a predictor of stroke type, location and vascular territory.

Underlying Mechanisms

Headache is a common, although under-emphasized, feature of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. In this review, we summarize the literature on the clinical features of headache in ischemic cerebrovascular disease (Part I) and elaborate upon the underlying mechanisms of the head pain (Part II-December issue).

SummaryPlatelet aggregation was studied in 24 patients in the chronic stage of ischemic cerebrovascular disease (CVD), with cerebral affluent and effluent blood, i.e., carotid arterial and internal jugular venous blood, and also with peripheral venous blood. Aggregation tests were performed at various final concentrations of sodium arachidonate (A.A.) and ADP. In 17 patients, not taking aspirin, platelet aggregability in jugular venous blood was significantly accentuated compared with that in arterial and peripheral venous blood. This tendency was more marked in the patients with cerebral artery stenosis and/or occlusion than in those with normal cerebral angiogram. In 7 patients taking 500 mg or more oral aspirin, aggregation differences across the brain were not observed and A.A. aggregation and the second phase of ADP aggregation were completely suppressed. These results suggest that a prophylactic administration of aspirin may be beneficial for patients in chronic stage of CVD.
