Department of Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology, University of Erlangen Nurnberg, Germany
Brain 122:1147-55. 1999..These results reflect an interictally persisting dysfunction of precortical visual processing which might be relevant in the pathophysiology of migraine...
Butterbur root extract and music therapy in the prevention of childhood migraine: an explorative studyRieke Oelkers-Ax

Longitudinal assessment of response preparation and evaluation in migraine gives evidence for deviant maturationR Oelkers-Ax
Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatriy, University of Heidelberg, Germany
Cephalalgia 28:237-49. 2008..This first longitudinal study confirms cross-sectional results of deviant CNV maturation in migraine. Altered maturation was not correlated with clinical improvement and may represent a vulnerability marker for migraine...
Maturation of early visual processing investigated by a pattern-reversal habituation paradigm is altered in migraineR Oelkers-Ax

Pattern-reversal visual-evoked potentials in children with migraine and other primary headache: evidence for maturation disorder?Rieke Oelkers-Ax
Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University of Heidelberg, Blumenstrasse 8, D 69115 Heidelberg, Germany
Pain 108:267-75. 2004..The main 'decline' of N135 latency with increasing age was shifted to lower spatial frequencies in the headache subgroups. The results give evidence that maturation of visual processing is partly disturbed in migraineurs...

Clin Neurophysiol 119:587-604. 2008..To describe the topography of the N700 component of the scalp-recorded visual event-related potential (ERP) and to provide fundamental knowledge of the conditions under which it occurs...
Lack of age-dependent development of the contingent negative variation (CNV) in migraine children?S Bender
Department for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany
Cephalalgia 22:132-6. 2002..Migraineurs seem to lack age-dependent development of CNV also during early age, which supports the hypothesis of migraine as a maturation disorder...

Department for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychiatric Clinic, University of Heidelberg, Blumenstrasse 8, D 69115 Heidelberg, Germany
Clin Neurophysiol 115:1836-45. 2004..To investigate whether a warning stimulus in a forewarned reaction time task elicits only an unspecific orienting reaction or task specific motor cortex activity...
Stereotyped topography of different elevated contingent negative variation components in children with migraine without aura points towards a subcortical dysfunctionStephan Bender
Department for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University of Heidelberg, Blumenstrasse 8, D 69115 Heidelberg, Germany
Pain 127:221-33. 2007....
