    Migraine sufferers process sensory information differently


    In this study, it was decided to treat the (possibly activated) occipital cortex of patients with EM with stimulated anode TDC, adapting the stimulation pattern to the assumed cortical pre-activation level of the participant's visual cortex


    Compared with sham stimulation, anode tDCS can lead to long-term reduction of migraine days in patients with EM


    The position of the active electrode on the visual cortex

    The position of the active electrode on the visual cortex

    This study is single-blind and randomized


    T1 is the 28-day stimulation period, and T2, T3, T4, and T5 are the next four 28-day follow-up periods; compared with the baseline check, the average change at T4 is significantly different (p=0.


    Prophylactic treatment of anode tDCS on the occipital cortex can significantly reduce the number of migraine days after the 28-day stimulation period


    In short, it is meaningful to explore whether prolonged stimulation can provide longer-lasting therapeutic benefits in future studies
