Clusterkopfschmerz und Rechts-Links-Shunt:Beobachtung an Clusterkopfschmerzpatienten in einer Fall-Kontroll-Studie

Auf dem Hintergrund einer mehrfach nachgewiesenen Assoziation zwischen Migräne mit Aura und einem persistierenden Foramen ovale (PFO) soll in dieser Arbeit der Zusammenhang eines PFO mit dem Clusterkopfschmerz ermittelt werden. Dazu wurden 73 Clusterkopfschmerzpatienten und 73 alters- und geschlechtsgematchte Kontrollpersonen per transkranieller Dopplersonographie auf einen Rechts- Links- Shunt (RLS) untersucht. Die Prävalenz eines PFO lag bei 36% innerhalb der Patientengruppe und 41% innerhalb der Kontrollgruppe (p=0.897). Das einzig signifikante Ergebnis unter den Analysen der Untergruppen zeigte, dass Clusterkopfschmerzpatienten mit RLS zum Zeitpunkt der Erstmanifestation sowie auch zum Untersuchungszeitpunkt im Durchschnitt signifikant jünger waren (p=0.046, p= 0.009). Zusammenfassend geben unsere Ergebnisse keinen Hinweis auf eine Assoziation zwischen dem Clusterkopfschmerz und einem PFO bzw. RLS

A Glycemia Risk Index (GRI) of Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia for Continuous Glucose Monitoring Validated by Clinician Ratings

BackgroundA composite metric for the quality of glycemia from continuous glucose monitor (CGM) tracings could be useful for assisting with basic clinical interpretation of CGM data.MethodsWe assembled a data set of 14-day CGM tracings from 225 insulin-treated adults with diabetes. Using a balanced incomplete block design, 330 clinicians who were highly experienced with CGM analysis and interpretation ranked the CGM tracings from best to worst quality of glycemia. We used principal component analysis and multiple regressions to develop a model to predict the clinician ranking based on seven standard metrics in an Ambulatory Glucose Profile: very low-glucose and low-glucose hypoglycemia; very high-glucose and high-glucose hyperglycemia; time in range; mean glucose; and coefficient of variation.ResultsThe analysis showed that clinician rankings depend on two components, one related to hypoglycemia that gives more weight to very low-glucose than to low-glucose and the other related to hyperglycemia that likewise gives greater weight to very high-glucose than to high-glucose. These two components should be calculated and displayed separately, but they can also be combined into a single Glycemia Risk Index (GRI) that corresponds closely to the clinician rankings of the overall quality of glycemia (r = 0.95). The GRI can be displayed graphically on a GRI Grid with the hypoglycemia component on the horizontal axis and the hyperglycemia component on the vertical axis. Diagonal lines divide the graph into five zones (quintiles) corresponding to the best (0th to 20th percentile) to worst (81st to 100th percentile) overall quality of glycemia. The GRI Grid enables users to track sequential changes within an individual over time and compare groups of individuals.ConclusionThe GRI is a single-number summary of the quality of glycemia. Its hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia components provide actionable scores and a graphical display (the GRI Grid) that can be used by clinicians and researchers to determine the glycemic effects of prescribed and investigational treatments
