- States of cerebral hemodynamics and microcirculation were examined in 105 children aged 7–10 years with episodic and chronic strain headaches. The authors revealed the alteration of arterial bed vessels tonus to the spasm status (with prevalence of heightened vessel tonus predominantly in vertebrobasilar basin in children with chronic headache) and the strain of regulatory mechanisms in microcirculation system which resulted in sharp decrease of microvessels reactivity and in disturbances in venous blood flowing off; these manifestations were accompanied by capillary blood flow diminishment. Perhaps the revealed factors played definite role in the development and progression of cephalgic syndrome in junior pupils and required correction.
