Article Abstract

One of the most common clinical manifestations of inherited platelet hyperaggregability also known as sticky platelet syndrome (SPS) is migraine. The aim of this study was to assess the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of platelet endothelial aggregation receptor 1 () and murine retrovirus integration site 1 () genes in pathogenesis of SPS associated with migraine. Hundred patients with SPS and migraine as well as two hundred and seven patients with SPS and without migraine as a control group were enrolled. SPS was diagnosed by light transmission aggregometry (LTA) according to the method and criteria described by Mammen and Bick. Two SNPs within gene (rs12041331 and rs12566888) and two SNPs within gene (rs7940646 and rs1874445) were assessed using High resolution melting (HRM) analysis. Minor allele frequencies for both SNPs within and in patients with SPS and history of migraine as well as haplotypes did not significantly differ compared to the SPS control group. The study also suggests SPS as a complex interaction of several genes resulting in possible polygenic phenotype of migraine in SPS patients.

Primary healthcare quality of migraine in China: a study using unannounced standardized patients.

HEOA Group, West China School of Public Health and West China Fourth Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.

Background: Migraine, a highly prevalent headache disorder, is associated with several adverse health outcomes if not properly managed, but little is known about the quality of primary healthcare for migraine. This study aims to assess the quality of primary healthcare for migraine in China using the unannounced standardized patient (USP) method.

Methods: This cross-sectional study, conducted as part of the Primary Health Care Quality Cohort in China (ACACIA) from April 2021 to January 2023, involved 196 unannounced visits for migraine across seven provinces.

Stiff-person syndrome (SPS) is an uncommon autoimmune neurological disorder marked by painful muscle stiffness, muscle spasms, and limb weakness. Neurological symptoms in SPS can mimic a psychogenic movement disorder in which symptoms are triggered by sudden movement and emotional distress, which might delay proper treatment. However, psychiatric symptoms are far less common, and there is limited understanding regarding the co-occurrence of psychiatric conditions.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers used standardized patients to conduct 1201 visits across seven provinces, finding that less than one-third of patients had their blood pressure checked, often not following the recommended protocols.
  • * The findings indicate a significant gap in hypertension screening practices in China, highlighting the need for better adherence to guidelines and improved training for healthcare providers.

Background: Moersch-Woltman Syndrome (MWS), also known as Stiff person syndrome (SPS), is a rare, progressive condition of the central nervous system. Symptoms can include severe immobility, rigidity, and painful muscle spasms in the trunk and limbs. Muscle spasms can occur in MWS patients because they are more sensitive to noise, rapid movements, and mental disturbance.
