- "A discriminant function analysis revealed that collectively, restricted movement, in association with palpable upper cervical joint dysfunction and impairment in the CCFT, had 100% sensitivity and 94% specificity to identify cervicogenic headache."http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17598761
- "The cervical flexion-rotation test (CFRT) exhibited both the highest reliability and the strongest diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of CGH."http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26423982
- "There is limited evidence to support radiofrequency ablation for management of CHA as there are no high quality RCTs and/ or multiple consistent non-RCTs without methodological flaws. There is poor evidence to support pulsed radiofrequency ablation for CHA as there are no high quality RCTs or Non-RCTs."http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25794199
- "A combination of therapist-driven cervical manipulation and mobilization with cervico-scapular strengthening was most effective for decreasing pain outcomes in those with CGH."http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24421621
- "The purpose of this review is to investigate the effects of cervical mobilization and manipulation on pain intensity and headache frequency, compared to traditional physical therapy interventions in patients diagnosed with cervicogenic headache. Ultimately, 10 studies met the inclusion criteria: (1) randomized controlled trial (RCT) or open RCT; the study contained at least two separate groups of subjects that were randomly assigned either to a cervical spine mobilization or manipulation or a group that served as a comparison; (2) subjects must have had a diagnosis of CEH; (3) the treatment group received either spinal mobilization or spinal manipulation, while the control group received another physical therapy intervention or placebo control; and (4) the study included headache pain and frequency as outcome measurements. Seven of the 10 studies had statistically significant findings that subjects who received mobilization or manipulation interventions experienced improved outcomes or reported fewer symptoms than control subjects. These results suggest that mobilization or manipulation of the cervical spine may be beneficial for individuals who suffer from CEH, although heterogeneity of the studies makes it difficult to generalize the findings." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27047446 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:56A:75B7:9B00:54B0:DACC:CA33:DAF6 (talk) 02:40, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
