abstract__Abstract__ Migraine is a neurovascular disorder characterized by a unilateral throbbing headache that lasts 4 to 72 hours and is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, photo- and phonophobia. It has a prevalence of 8% in men and 20-25% in women. The exact mechanisms behind a migraine attack are not clear, but the trigeminovascular system seems to play a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine.markdown
