RECRUITINGDays of Migraine
The number of days of migraine is the number of days in which migraine occurs or is likely to be migraine (according to IHS ICHD-3 diagnostic criteria). A migraine day is a day when a headache lasts for more than 30 minutes, does not take painkillers, and meets the ICHD-3 migraine or most likely migraine criteria. Migraine day can also be defined as a headache day that is effective for the acute treatment of specific migraine drugs (triptan, ditan, gepant, ergotamine, etc.).
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Moderate / Severe Headache Days
Moderate / severe headache days are defined as a day in which moderate or severe pain persists for at least 4 hours, or headache lasts for one day after successful medication for acute headache. These definitions allow the use of relatively simple headache diaries. Subjects were required to indicate whether headache was present (yes / no), peak (mild / moderate / severe) severity and duration (\< 4h or 4h), type of acute drug intake (triptan ergot / other), and response to treatment should also be recorded.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Migraine Attack
Migraine attack is defined as any consistent migraine attacks or the use of specific migraine drugs. If a migraine attack is interrupted by sleep, or temporarily relieved, and then relapses within 48 hours, it is considered an attack. In addition, migraine attacks that were successfully treated with drugs but relapsed within 48 hours and lasted for more than 48 hours were counted as one attack.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
The Response Rate of at Least 50%, 75% and 100% Reduction in the Number of Days of Migraine Attacks
The response rate is calculated as the percentage reduction in the frequency of migraine attacks (or days of migraine, or days of moderate or severe headache) compared with the baseline during each treatment period. The response rate is traditionally defined as a reduction of at least 50% from the baseline, but other percentage reductions (for example: 30%, 75%, 100%) may be used.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Headache Intensity
Four-point rating scale was used to evaluate the headache intensity of each migraine day--painless, mild, moderate, or severe. Migraine intensity is not recommended as the main outcome measure alone, but it is important to record the decrease in migraine intensity as an indicator of disability reduction. Depending on the design of the trial, subjects should be asked to record the intensity of each migraine. In addition, the 11 point visual rating scale (VAS) can be used instead or in combination with the 4-level classification rating scale. The use of VAS in clinical trials may increase the likelihood of showing differences in severity.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Cumulative Hours of Moderate / Severe Pain at 28 Days
The cumulative number of hours of moderate / severe pain calculated by electronic headache diaries. If an attack occurs before going to bed and when you wake up, the amount of sleep also counts as the number of headache hours.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Days Without Symptoms
Defined as the number of days without aura, prodromal symptoms, headaches and subsequent symptoms. It needs to be determined by headache diary.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Days Without Headache
The number of days without headache also includes the number of days without related symptoms directly caused by migraine (including physical function, cognitive or emotional disorders).
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Peak Headache Pain Intensity
Subjects should record the maximum intensity of daily headaches and any medication used. An 11-point digital rating scale can be used instead of or in conjunction with a 4-level classified rating scale.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS)
MIDAS is a seven-item questionnaire designed to quantify headache-related disability within 3 months. The MIDAS score is the sum of days of absenteeism or absenteeism caused by headache, days of work or school plus days of housework, days without housework and days without non-work activities caused by headache in the last 3 months.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Headache Impact Scale (HIT-6)
HIT-6 is a six-question assessment scale used to assess the effects of headache on subjects' ability to work, school, housework and social tasks. The scale assessed the effects of headache on daily life and the functional ability of the subjects. The answer to the evaluation scale is based on the frequency of use of the 5-point scale from "never" to "often". The total score of HIT-6 ranges from 36 to 78, which is the sum of the scores between 6 (never) and 13 (often) for each question.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Migraine Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MSQV2.1)
MSQV2.1 is a 14-item questionnaire used to assess health-related quality of life decline due to migraine in the last 4 weeks. The questionnaire is divided into three areas: the role function limitation area, which is used to assess how migraine restricts the daily social and work-related activities of migraine patients; the role function block area, which is used to assess how migraine prevents these activities; and the emotional function area, which is used to evaluate the emotions associated with migraine. The subjects answered these items using a six-component scale from "never" to "at any time". The original dimension score was calculated by the sum of item answer scores and converted back to 0 to 100. The higher the score, the better the quality of life.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9)
PHQ-9 is a validated, self-administered, concise tool for screening and diagnosis of mental health disorders, which has been tested in office practice. The screening scale is easy to use and can be completed in a short time, which improves the recognition rate of depression and facilitates the diagnosis and treatment of depression. PHQ-9 consists of 9 DSM-Ⅳ diagnostic criteria for depression in the last 2 weeks. Subjects were asked to use a 4-component scale to indicate the frequency of 9 depressive symptoms in the last 2 weeks: 0 (none at all), 1 (a few days), 2 (more than half) and 3 (almost every day). The total score ranges from 0 to 27 (from the best to the worst). A score of 15 to 19 indicates moderate to severe depression and a score of 20 to 27 indicates severe depression.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7)
GAD-7 is a proven, self-administered and concise tool for screening and diagnosing mental health disorders, which has been tested in the field in office practice. The screening scale is easy to use and can be completed in a short time, which improves the recognition rate of anxiety disorders and facilitates diagnosis and treatment. The main statistical index of this scale is the total score, that is, the sum of item scores. The total score range of GAD-7 is 0: 21 and that of GAD-2 is 0: 6. The score of GAD-7 can be used to evaluate the severity of anxiety symptoms: 0: 4: no clinical significance: anxiety: 5: 9: mild; 10: 14: moderate; \> 15: severe. When used as an assistant diagnosis of anxiety symptoms, the cut-off value of GAD-7 is greater than or equal to 10.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Functional Impairment Scale (FIS)
Functional impairment scale (FIS) is a 4-point scale to evaluate the functional status and injury intensity in daily activities. It can be used in conjunction with the four-point pain intensity scale, usually done daily and summarized within four weeks.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Euroqol-5 Dimension Questionnaire (EQ-5D)
EQ-5D-5Lis a general tool for assessing health status. EQ-5D-5Lconsists of two parts of EQ-5D description system and EQ VAS. The description system consists of five dimensions (activity ability, self-care, daily activities, pain / discomfort and anxiety / depression). Respondents need to tick (or cross) the corresponding boxes of the most appropriate declaration for each of the five dimensions to indicate their health status. The score of the EQ-5D description system generally ranges from 0 (death) to 1 (completely healthy). EQ VAS recorded the respondents' self-rated health outcomes through a vertical visual simulation scale, and the two endpoints were "imaginable ideal health state" and "imaginable least ideal health state". EQ VAS scores range from 0 (the least ideal state of health imaginable) to 100 (the most ideal state of health imaginable).
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
Suicidal Ideation Score (C-SSRS Scale)
Suicidal ideation should be monitored in trials of central action drugs, higher scores mean a worse outcome. Many migraine clinical trials used the Columbia suicide severity scale (C SSRS).The C-SSRS consists of a maximum of 20 items. C-SSRS will be administered in study subjects at each study visit to assess possible suicidal ideation and behavior. Reports of suicidal ideation with intent to act (endorse item 4 or 5) and reports of actual, aborted, or interrupted suicide attempts or a behavior preparatory for making an attempt indicate subjects at high risk for suicide.
Time frame: Medium term: within 6 months after initial diagnosis; long term: 60 years
