Assessment and modulation of cerebrospinal fluid for head pain
The disclosure relates to the discovery that certain cerebrovascular disorders in humans who exhibit seemingly normal intracranial pressure (ICP) and do not exhibit hydrocephalus can be alleviated or prevented by reducing ICP in the human. Disorders of this type are herein designated normotensive, nonhydrocephalus tenso-responsive cerebrovascular disorder (NNTCDs). The disclosure describes methods of relieving head pain and other symptoms of NNTCDs, for example by withdrawing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the subarachnoid space of a human or by administering a pharmaceutical agent that modulates CSF production, uptake, or both. Methods of assessing whether a human is afflicted with one or more NNTCDs are also described. The disclosure describes numerous pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration to humans afflicted with NNTCDs to alleviate or prevent such disorders. Such compositions can, for example, include both a CSF-reducing agent and a symptomatic (e.g., head pain) relief agent..
