Background: Cervical headache (CGH) is a common condition that causes serious damage. Mulligan described a sustained natural apophyseal glides (SNAGs) as a manual therapy approach to treat this dysfunction. Although there have been several case studies to evaluate the effectiveness of SNAG, the efficacy of SNAG for cervical headaches is still controversial. Therefore, this study examined the effects of Mulligan's SNAG technique on cervical headache and pain intensity to present basic clinical data. Methods: Thirty-two subjects participated in this study, 16 each in the experimental and control groups. The experimental group applied Mulligan's SNAGs technique and the control group applied the placebo SNAGs technique. Results: Significant differences (p<.05) in the changes in pain, neck disability index (NDI) and Hamilton rating scale for depression (HRSD) were observed between the two groups. Conclusion: The application of Mulligan's SNAG technique to patients with cervical headaches effectively reduced headache, depression, and neck dysfunction. Based on this study, Mulligan's SNAGs technique can be used as an objective research method for additional studies targeting cervical headache patients in the future.

목 적 : 두통과 간질은 소아기에 흔한 질환이다. 두통 환자에서 간질의 발생이 높고, 간질 환자에서 두통 발생이 높다. 소아 간질 환자에서 동반된 두통과 간질 발작과 동반되는 두통에 대한 보고는 드물다. 실제 임상에서 간질 환자와 의사들은 간질의 치료에 관심을 갖고 있기 때문에, 간질에 동반된 두통의 평가와 치료를 적절히 하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 저자는 소아청소년 간질 환자에 동반된 두통과 편두통의 빈도, 임상적인 특징과 치료에 대해서 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 조선대학교병원 소아과 간질 클리닉의 초진과 재진 간질 환자 229명(남녀 비 1.1:1.0)을 대상으로 전향적으로 연구 하였다. 평균 나이는 $10.0{\pm}4.1$세(나이 범위 4-17세)이었다. 간질 환자 중 두통 환자는 86명(남녀 비 1.05:1.0)이었고, 평균 나이는 $10.7{\pm}3.6$세이었다. 두통 환자 중 편두통 환자는 64명(남녀 비 1.0:1.0)이었고, 평균 나이는 $10.6{\pm}3.7$세이었다. 대상 환자 모두에게 질문지를 배포하여 환자와 보호자가 상의하여 답하게 하였고, 질문지를 통하여 간질에 동반된 두통과 간질 발작시 두통에 대하여 자세히 조사하였으며, 두통의 심한 정도의 평가는 VAS (visual analogue scale; 0-10; 0, 통증 없음, 10, 가장 심한 통증)를 사용하였다. 두통에 의한 장애는 PedMIDAS를 사용하여 평가하였다. 두통의 분류는 2004년에 개정된 국제 두통 질환분류를 이용하였다. 간질의 분류는 1981년 항간질연맹(ILAE)에서 발표한 분류법을 사용하였다. 결 과 : 소아 간질 환자에서 동반된 두통은 229명 중 86명(37.6%)이었고, 편두통은 64명(27.9%)이었다. 두통의 유형은 편두통이 74.4%로 가장 흔하였으며, 전조 편두통이 48.8%로 가장 높았다. 두통 환자의 한 달 평균 빈도는 $7.2{\pm}8.4$이었고, 평균 지속 시간 $2.2{\pm}4.0$, 평균 심한 정도(VAS) $5.2{\pm}2.2$이었으며, 두통에 의한 장애는 평균 PedMIDAS $13.0{\pm}35.4$이었다. 간질에 동반된 두통은 부분발작의 69.8%(복잡 부분 발작 51.2%, 단순 부분 발작 18.6%)이었고, 전신발작의 30.2%로 두통의 동반은 부분 발작에서 통계학적으로 의미 있게 높았으며(P=0.025), 특히 복합 부분 발작에서 통계학적으로 의미 있게 높았다(P=0.007). 간질에 동반된 편두통은 부분 발작, 특히 복잡 부분 발작에서 높았으나 통계학적인 의미는 없었다. 편두통과 동반된 발작 후 두통은 18.8%이었으며, 발작 전 두통은 17.2%, 발작 중 두통 7.8 %이었다. 간질과 동반된 두통의 치료는 처방전을 받아서 치료하고 있는 경우는 8.1%로 매우 적었으며, 처방전 없이 진통제를 복용하는 경우 59.3%, 약물을 복용하지 않는 경우도 22.1%이었다. 간질과 동반된 두통 환자 중 간질 진단 후에 두통이 발생하는 경우는 66.3%이었고, 초진 환자인 경우보다 재진인 경우에 두통 발생이 더 높았고, 초진인 경우 여자에서 더 높았다. 두통 발생 후에 간질 발작이 있는 경우는 33.7%이었고, 초진 환자인 경우에 재진인 경우보다 두통 발생이 더 높았고, 초진인 경우 남자에서 두통 발생 후 간질 발작이 많았다. 결 론 : 간질에 동반된 두통의 유병률은 일반 소아에서의 두통의 유병률보다 높고, 이 중에서 편두통이 가장 많았다. 이것은 피질의 과흥분이 피질의 확산 억제를 증가시킨다는 점으로 설명되어진다. 간질 환자에 동반된 두통은 간질의 예후에 나쁜 영향을 주기 때문에 임상의들은 간질을 진단하고 치료할 때 두통을 염두에 두고 간질 발작 동안이나 간질 간기의 두통에 대한 질문과 적절한 치료를 하여야 한다. 더 나아가 항경련제 반응으로 각각의 약물에 따른 두통의 빈도, 심한 정도와 지속 시간의 효과를 알아보고자 한다.

1. Objectives: This study reports two cases of repetitive episodic tension-type headache patients who were each constitutionally typed as the Taeeum type and the Soyang type and respectively treated with Yanggyeoksanhwa-tang and Galgeunhaegi-tang. 2. Methods: The patients' subjective and objective symptoms were observed daily, and the VAS scores for the main symptoms were recorded daily throughout hospitalization period. When deemed necessary, other assessment tools were engaged (Migraine-Specific Quality of Life questionnaire, Migraine Disablity Assessment questionnaire, Headache Impact Test-6, etc.). 3. Results: The Soyang Type patient's headache improved by the end of hospitalization, with a dramatic drop in the VAS score from VAS 10 to VAS 2. The Taeeum Type patient's headache also showed improvement, with an equally dramatic decrease in the VAS score from VAS 10 to VAS 2. 4. Conclusion: Although the two patients were experiencing the same symptoms of repetitive episodic tension-type headache, they were each given different medicinal interventions in accordance to their respective constitutional types. This series of cases is notable in that the two widely different medications (Yanggyeoksanhwa-tang and Galgeunhaegi-tang) were applied to specifically conforming pathologies (the Sogal symptomatology and the Ganyeol symptomatology, respectively) to produce equally dramatic improvements.

Objectives: To investigate the correlation of anxiety or depression mood with physical stress of 59 participants (29 who complained of chronic headache and 30 who did not complain of headache) using a questionnaire on chronic headache symptoms, Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Methods: In this study, medical records of 59 participants (29 who complained of chronic headache and 30 who did not complain of headache) who completed the BAI, BDI, HRV, and Questionnaire for chronic headache symptoms were evaluated. All data were analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, Version 26.0). Descriptive Analysis, Mann-Whitney U test, Chi square test (Fisher's exact test), and Pearson correlation coefficient were used for data analysis. Results: 1. The chronic headache group had significantly lower SDNN, RMSSD, TP, LF, and HF values on HRV than the general control group. 2. As BAI and BDI scores of the chronic headache group increased, the overall HRV value tended to decrease, indicating a deep association. 3. There was a negative association between BDI and HRV values in the chronic headache group, although such association was not statistically significant. Conclusions: BDI can be negatively correlated with HRV (SDNN, RMSSD, TP, LF, HF) in chronic headache patients.

Changes in diagnostic criteria, for example, the various International Classification of Headache Disorders criteria, would lead to changes in the outcomes of epidemiological studies. International Classification of Headache Disorders-1 was based mainly on expert opinion, yet most of the diagnostic criteria were reliable and valid, but it did not include chronic migraine. In its second version, the classification introduced chronic migraine, but this diagnosis resembled more a high-frequency migraine rather than the actual migraine transformation process. It also introduced medication overuse headache, but it necessitated analgesic withdrawal and subsequent headache improvement to be diagnosed as such. Hence patients having medication overuse headache could only be diagnosed in retrospect, which was an awkward situation. Such restrictive criteria for chronic migraine and medication overuse headache omitted a high proportion of patients. International Classification of Headache Disorders-3 allows a diagnosis of medication overuse headache due to combination analgesics if taken for at least 10 days per month for more than three months. Hence the prevalence rate of medication overuse headache and chronic migraine can increase compared to the previous version of the headache classification. Different criteria have been used across studies to identify chronic migraine and medication overuse headache, and therefore the information acquired from previous studies using earlier criteria becomes uncertain. Hence much epidemiological research would need to be interpreted cautiously or repeated with the most updated criteria, since the subjects in studies that apply the latest criteria may be phenotypically different from those in older studies.
