Influence of Role-expectancy on Patient Reported Outcomes Among Patients With Migraine: a Randomized Clinical Trial
Germany366 participantsStarted 2019-10-29
Plain-language summary
This study was preregistered 2019 under https://osf.io/nczhj. Since JAMA requires a registration with ClinicalTrials.gov, we post-register the study here with the identical informations from OSF (see there)
Migraine is frequently associated with motion sickness, vestibular symptoms, and abnormal motion and visual processing. Clinical symptoms and underlying brain mechanisms during self-motion visual stimulation were not yet investigated in this population. Therefore the aim is to investigate the behavioral responses from a visually simulated roller coaster ride of patients with migraine and headache-free controls. In order to verify the effect of response bias, part of the patients with migraine will be informed that the study aims to investigate vestibular disorders instead of headache disorders and that they are invited as healthy controls.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
