Response of the autonomic activity to stress provocation in females with cervicogenic headache compared to asymptomatic controls: a cross-sectional study.

CONCLUSIONS: Females with episodic cervicogenic headache reacted less to cognitive stress provocation. Recuperation after such provocation was absent. More research is needed to associate autonomous responses with a possible chronification process. CLINICAL RESEARCH IMPLICATION: A dysfunctional reaction to cognitive stress could be a threat to allostasis. PMID: 31939264 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
