Baillie, Lauren, Gabrielle, Jeanne; Penzien, Donald
The current review assesses the effectiveness of exercise as an adjunct to other behavioral treatments for chronic headache. Existing studies suggest that behavioral headache interventions that include aerobic exercise may be associated with positive outcomes for headache variables.

Browne, Marilyn (contact); Van Zutphen, Alissa; Botto, Lorenzo; Louik, Carol; Richardson, Sandra; Druschel, Charlotte
We examined the association between maternal self-reported butalbital use and specific birth defects among 8,373 unaffected controls and 21,090 case infants in the National Birth Defects Prevention Study. We observed relationships between maternal periconceptional butalbital use and certain congenital heart defects. These associations have not been reported before and some may be spurious.
