Verisimilitude (or "truthlikeness") as an alternative to pro and cons: migraine and cluster headache mechanisms.

Peer Carsten Tfelt-Hansen1.   

Abstract

Calculating verisimilitude (or "truthlikeness") ad modum Popper is a quantitative alternative to the usual pros and cons in migraine and cluster headache mechanisms. The following items were evaluated: dilation of large cranial arteries during migraine; CGRP increase during migraine; migraine as a brain disorder; aura and migraine headache; brain stem activation during migraine; rCBF in migraine without aura; NO and pathophysiology of migraine; neurogenic inflammation and migraine; aura in cluster headache; and hypothalamic activation in cluster headache. It is concluded that verisimilitude calculations can be helpful when judging pathophysiological problems in migraine and cluster headache.
