US scientists found that some migraine patients have thicker cerebral cortex. A recent study by American scientists found that the thickness of the cerebral cortex pain perception area of ​​people with frequent migraine is significantly different from that of ordinary people, but it is still unclear between the two. Causal relationship. According to a new issue of the US Neuroscience magazine, researchers at the Massachusetts General Hospital conducted brain scans on 24 people with long-term migraine and 12 normal people. They found that they felt painful in the cerebral cortex of migraine patients. The area of ​​touch and temperature is 21% thicker than normal people, and the thickness of part of the cerebral cortex that deals with the sensory signals of the head and face is most obvious. However, the researchers are still unclear about the causal relationship between abnormalities in the thickness of the cerebral cortex and migraine. It may be that this abnormal thickness eventually leads to migraine, or it may be that long-term migraine stimulation thickens the relevant areas of the cerebral cortex. Migraine is clinically characterized as recurrent episodes of bilateral or bilateral headaches, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and photophobia. Women are more likely to have migraine than men, and many migraine patients have a family history. ——Midi Medical Network
