About this study

The researchers investigated the relationship between migraine and allergy. For this purpose, the researchers designed a controlled study to evaluate nasal symptoms and signs; and to perform Specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) measurements in migraine patients and healthy subjects. According to these results the prevalence of allergic rhinitis in migraine group was planned to be compared to that of the healthy controls, statistically.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE)

    Blood samples were taken from study and control group for the determination of Specific IgE panel against six different allergens: (1) fungi, (2) grass pollens, (3) tree pollens, (4) wild herbs, (5) mite 1, (6) mite 2. For all of specific IgE panels, <0,7 RU/ml was negative; and >0,7 RU/ml was Positive.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Nasal Symptom Scores

    Symptoms were assessed with a questionnaire for the presence and severity of allergic rhinitis (AR) symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe). Symptoms of AR (Nasal discharge, nasal congestion, itching and sneezing) were graded between 0-3.

    Measured: 1 day

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
