Preserved working memory performance along with subcortical modulation during peri‐ictal phases in spontaneous migraine attacks
During a working memory task, cognition-related brain activation was present across all phases of the migraine cycle similarly to healthy control participants. Patients with migraine, however, displayed lower neural activity at the subcortical level in the postictal phase. Nonetheless, the sample size is a limitation for the generalization of our results. More research is needed to fully understand how the brain copes with cognitive demands during spontaneous migraine attacks.
