| Abstract |
Headache is being viewed more commonly in a biopsychosocial framework, which introduces the possible utilisation of psychological treatment options, such as cognitive behavioural therapy and relaxation. No such treatments have been trialled in the UK. We conducted a randomised controlled pilot trial, comparing a brief guided self-help CBT and relaxation treatment with standard medical care (SMC), in a UK NHS setting. Participants were recruited from specialist headache clinics across London. Participants were randomised to receive either treatment or standard medical care. Our objective was to provide design information necessary for a future definitive trial of the SHE treatment, including, recruitment/retention rates, acceptability of randomisation, treatment fidelity and estimations of mean and variances of outcome measures. From the initial 275 patients identified, 73 were randomised. There was no difference in drop-out rates between SMC and treatment groups. Of the 36 participants randomised to receive treatment, 72 % attended all sessions. Findings show that a future definitive trial of the SHE treatment is feasible, with small modifications of protocol, within a UK NHS context. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 November 2016.
All research outputs
#4,558,151
of 22,830,751 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Neurology
#1,138
of 4,477 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#62,036
of 283,820 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Neurology
#19
of 55 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,830,751 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 80th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,477 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 74% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 283,820 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 55 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 65% of its contemporaries.
