Rezumat

Episodic migraine is a debilitating condition associated with vast impairments of health, daily living and life quality. Several prophylactic treatments exist, having a moderate ratio of action related to side effects and therapy costs. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an evidence base therapy in several neuropsychiatric conditions showing robust efficacy in alleviating specific symptoms. However, its efficacy in migraine disorders is unequivocal and might be tightly linked to the applied rTMS protocol. We hypothesized that multifocal rTMS paradigm could improve clinical outcomes in patients with episodic migraine by reducing the number of migraine days, frequency and intensity of migraine attacks, and improve the quality of life. We conducted an experimental, double‑blind, randomized controlled study by applying an innovative rTMS paradigm. Reduction >50% from the baseline in migraine days (as primary outcome) and frequency and intensity of migraine attacks (as key secondary outcomes) over a 12‑week period were assessed.
