ClinConnect Summary

The China Headache Registry Study is looking at different types of headaches, including migraines, tension-type headaches, and other related conditions like vertigo and fibromyalgia. This study aims to gather information from patients aged 4 to 99 years to better understand the causes, symptoms, and treatments of these headache disorders. Researchers will examine various factors, such as genetics and heart function, and plan to follow participants over the long term to see how their conditions change.

To participate in this study, individuals must provide written consent and be diagnosed with specific headache types according to established guidelines. The study welcomes both males and females who fit within the age range. Participants will be asked to keep track of their headaches, but those unable to do so or who cannot commit to long-term follow-up will not be eligible. Overall, this research aims to improve our understanding of headache disorders and help develop better treatments in the future.
