Analysis of Headache Chronification With Imaging, Deep Phenotyping, and Proteomics (NCT03231241)
SunStar Project to Explore the Chronification Process in Headache Through Functional Imaging, Deep Phenotyping, and Analysis of CSF of Blood Products
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Study is aimed at determining why some patients with episodic headache proceed to chronic daily or near daily headaches. The Investigators seek to discover differences in brain anatomy and function, composition of cerebrospinal fluid, blood products, genetics, and patient phenotypes that might help explain this process.
