A prevalence study of 9000 Swedish school children conducted in 1955 showed that nearly 4% had migraine. The prevalence of migraine was 1.4% at 7 years of age and 5.3% at 15 years of age. From the age of 11 there was a gradual increase of migraine headache and a predominance among girls. A subgroup of 73 children with pronounced migraine and an average onset of 6 years was followed during a period of 40 years. The results showed that 23% of the children were migraine-free before the age of 25, boys significantly more often than girls. However, around the age of 50, more than half of the migraine group still had migraine attacks. A recall bias was found it that a number of the subjects in their middle-life (41%) could not remember that they had had aura symptoms previously. Of those who had become parents, 52% have in their present or previous families had one child or more who had developed recurrent headache, probably of the migraine-type. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To determine the prevalence of migraine and its association with age, gender, and social class and to find out whether or not the headache and nonheadache characteristics differ between children with migraine, with and without aura, using the diagnostic criteria of the International Headache Society for childhood migraine. DESIGN: Population-based study in two stages comprising an initial screening questionnaire followed by telephone interviews of children with symptoms. SETTING: Eighteen kindergarten and 39 primary and secondary schools in Thessaloniki and its semiurban areas. SUBJECTS: Four thousand children, aged 4 to 15 years, representing a random sample of 5% of schoolchildren in Thessaloniki and its semiurban areas. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: (1) The prevalence of migraine, (2) the connection of migraine with social class, (3) differences in the occurrence of individual symptoms between migraine with and without aura. RESULTS: The results of the present study show that migraine prevalence was 6.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.4 to 7.0). The estimated prevalences of migraine with and without aura were 2.8% (95% CI, 2.3 to 3.4) and 3.4% (CI, 2.8 to 4.0), respectively. The prevalence of migraine increased with age and it was found to be almost equal in boys and girls aged 7 to 9 years or younger, but in older age groups the prevalence was higher in girls than in boys. The data showed no evidence that connected migraine with social class. It also showed that except for the aura, the headache (e.g., frequency, duration, location, quality, and severity) and nonheadache (e.g., nausea, vomiting, phonophobia, and photophobia) characteristics were no different between children with migraine, with and without aura. In conclusion, our findings indicate that migraine is a common underdiagnosed cause of severe recurrent headache in children. The findings show that childhood migraine is not connected with social class and varies with age and gender, and that except for the aura, both migraine with and without aura are so similar in their headache and nonheadache clinical characteristics that a common pathogenesis is plausible. 相似文献

This population-based cross-sectional study examined the 3-month prevalence of headache, migraine and tension-type headache (TTH) among adolescents aged 12-15 years in Germany. Students (n = 3324) from 20 schools completed a questionnaire on general and headache-specific pain which included a sociodemographic module. The headache-specific questionnaire complied with the respective revised criteria of the International Headache Society (IHS). 'Modified criteria' changed the item 'duration' in migraine (>30 min instead of > 4 h). The overall 3-month prevalence of headache was 69.4% (boys 59.5%, girls 78.9%), with 4.4% of the adolescents suffering from frequent (>or=14 days/3 months) and severe (grade 8-10 on a 10-point visual analogue scale) headache and 1.4% (boys 0.9%, girls 1.9%) from headache >or= 15 days/month. The 3-month prevalence of migraine was 2.6% (boys 1.6%, girls 3.5%) applying strict IHS criteria and 6.9% (boys 4.4%, girls 9.3%) with modified criteria; 12.6% (boys 8.3%, girls 16.7%) suffered from probable migraine, 0.07% fulfilled the criteria for chronic migraine, 4.5% (boys 4.6%, girls 4.3%) suffered from TTH, 0.2% from chronic TTH and 15.7% (boys 14.5%, girls 16.9%) from probable TTH. Headache and migraine were more common in girls than in boys and in teenagers, especially in girls, aiming at higher education. Recurrent headache and primary headache disorders are common complaints among German adolescents, especially among girls. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of headache and primary headache disorders like migraine and tension-type headaches among adolescents, and to explore the differences in headache prevalence and frequency by gender and age. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Nord-Tr?ndelag county, Norway, during the years 1995-97. In total, 8984 (88%) out of 10 202 invited adolescents aged 12-19 years participated in the youth part of the Nord-Tr?ndelag Health Study [Helseunders?kelsen i Nord-Tr?ndelag (HUNT)]. The total study population in this study consisted of 8255 individuals after exclusion of invalid questionnaires and students outside the target range of 13-18 years of age. The students completed a comprehensive questionnaire, and one of the questions was whether the students had experienced any headaches during the last 12 months. In addition, 5847 of these students were also subject to an interview in which they were asked whether they had experienced recurring headaches during the last year and, if so, were they classified as migraine (MI), tension-type headache (TTH) or non-classifiable headache. In the total questionnaire-based population, 76.8% reported having had headaches during the last 12 months (69.4% boys and 84.2% girls). Among those who also were interviewed, 29.1% reported having recurrent headaches (21.0% boys and 36.5% girls). The overall 1-year prevalence of migraine was 7%, of tension-type headache 18%, and of non-classifiable headache 4.8%. Higher prevalence rates were found for girls in all age groups and for all headache categories. The overall frequency of recurrent headaches did not vary significantly with age, but girls had significantly more frequent headaches than boys. We concluded that headache in general, and recurrent primary headache disorders like migraine and tension-type headaches, are common somatic complaints among Norwegian adolescents, especially among girls. 相似文献

Objectives.— To determine the 1‐year prevalence of headache and clinical characteristics of primary headaches among school children in South Korea. Background.— Many population‐based studies have estimated the 1‐year prevalence of headache, migraine, and tension‐type headache (TTH). The results of those studies vary in terms of race and region. There have been few epidemiological population‐based studies of headache in children and adolescents in Korea. Methods.— We conducted a cross‐sectional school‐based study of a randomized and proportional sample of 5360 boys and girls. All 180 sampled schools participated in this study. The questionnaires collected demographic data in addition to specific questions about headache according to the International Classification of Headache Disorder criteria, 2nd Edition. Valid questionnaires were returned by 94.1% of the sample population. Modified criteria changed the “duration” of migraine (>1 hour instead of 4 hours). Results.— The prevalence of headache among school children was 29.1% (1465/5039) in South Korea. The prevalence of headache in girls (33.4%) was significantly higher than in boys (24.4%) (P < .001). The mean age of students with headaches (14.02 ± 3.03) was significantly higher than students without headaches (12.73 ± 3.36) (P < .001). The prevalence of headache according to region was 30.7% among students in urban, 31.2% in suburban, and 21.6% in rural areas. The prevalence of headache according to age was 20.8% among students ~6‐12 years, 32.0% ~13‐15 years, and 38.2% ~16‐18 years. The prevalence according to headache types was 8.7% (boys 7.0%, girls 10.3%) in migraine, 13.7% (boys 10.7%, girls 16.3%) in TTH, and 6.7% in others. The mean frequency, severity of headache, and duration of symptoms were significantly higher in girls than in boys (P < .001). Conclusions.— Recurrent primary headaches are quite prevalent among school‐aged children and adolescents in South Korea, and the prevalence rates are similar to those reported elsewhere. TTH was more common than migraine. The prevalence of migraine headache increased with age. The prevalence rate of headache in students in urban and suburban areas was significantly higher than the rate of students in rural areas. 相似文献

Prevalence of headache in Swedish schoolchildren, with a focus on tension-type headache 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Laurell K Larsson B Eeg-Olofsson O 《Cephalalgia : an international journal of headache》2004,24(5):380-388
To estimate the prevalence of tension-type headache, migraine and other headaches, 1850 schoolchildren, age 7-15 years, from the city of Uppsala, were invited to complete a questionnaire. The response rate was 74.1%. To validate the information from the questionnaires, 131 children and their parents were interviewed. Using the criteria of the International Headache Society, the 1-year prevalence of tension-type headache and migraine was 9.8 and 11.0%, respectively. However, these prevalence rates increased considerably, to 23.0 and 17.0%, respectively, when excluding the criteria defining the number of earlier episodes and duration of headache. The prevalence of headache increased with age, similarly in girls and boys up to 11 years, and thereafter only in girls. The preponderance in teenage girls was even more pronounced for tension-type headache than for migraine. Our results indicate an increase over time in headache prevalence when compared with findings in a study conducted in the same city in 1955. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To determine prevalence and characteristics of menstrually related migraine and nonmigraine headache in female students of Belgrade University. METHODS: A questionnaire was administered to female students during randomly selected classes of the Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy. Diagnoses were assigned according to the criteria of the International Headache Society and MacGregor's stricter definition of "menstrual" migraine. RESULTS: Of 1943 female students (18 to 28 years old), 1298 (66.8%) had primary headaches. Among 1298 students with headache, 245 (12.6%) had migraine and 1053 (54.2%) had nonmigraine headache. The prevalence rates of migraine versus nonmigraine headache in relation to the menstrual cycle were: premenstrual, 0.9% versus 4.4%; menstrual, 1.5% versus 1.5%; menstrually associated, 6.1% versus 10.1%; menstrually unchanged, 2.7% versus 19.2%; and menstrually unrelated, 1.4% versus 18.9%. Female students with migraine had menstrually related attacks more frequently than students with nonmigraine headache (67.7% versus 29.5%). This difference was most prominent among students with menstrual migraine compared with students with menstrual nonmigraine headache (12.2% versus 2.7%). Exacerbation of migraine during menstruation was slightly more severe and more complex than exacerbation of nonmigraine headache. Female students with migraine versus nonmigraine headache did not differ significantly in age, age at onset of menarche, or age at onset of headache. Female students with migraine were significantly more likely to report a positive family history for migraine and menstrual migraine, severe attacks, reduced work activity, and aura. CONCLUSION: The results obtained are in accord with the prevailing opinion that there is a relationship between migraine and female sex hormones, and suggest that women with nonmigraine headache are also susceptible to hormonal fluctuations. 相似文献

Background.— Puberty is assumed to influence the occurrence of headache, increasing the risk for recurrent episodes, especially in girls. The increase of headache, in particular recurrent headache, in girls from around the age of 12 on, is often ascribed to the occurrence of menarche as the most stringent indicator of completed puberty. Objectives.— We examined the hypothesis that the occurrence of menarche in girls is predictive of recurrent headache in reference to no or rare headache in the past 6 months. Furthermore, the assumption was tested that headache episodes increase after onset of menarche but remain unchanged in girls not having experienced their first menstruation. We also expected a higher probability of migraine type of headache after menarche. In a further analysis girls with and without menarche were compared with boys, and a difference between gender only for girls with menarche was predicted. Methods.— In an epidemiological study recruiting 8800 families with children 7‐14 years in Southern Lower Saxony (Germany), we conducted 3 yearly panels based on postal questionnaires. Headache data are based on self‐report of children from 9 years on. Parents were asked for information regarding the onset of menarche. Approximately 1100 girls and about the same number of boys constitute the sample for our analyses. Results.— The results of a logistic regression analysis demonstrate that in 11‐ to 16‐year‐old girls having experienced menarche in either the year of the assessment of headache or 2 years before that, the risk for recurrent headache is increased when compared with girls without menarche. Intraindividual longitudinal analyses, however, do not support our hypotheses that after the onset of menarche headaches become more frequent. The expected differences in headache between girls with menarche and boys were found. The risk for migraine‐like headaches is not significantly higher after onset of menarche than before. Conclusions.— Thus, results do not consistently support the hypothesis that puberty is a moderator of headache frequency. Even in cases where the outcome of regression analyses is supportive of our expectations, explained variance is diminutive (maximum 2.2%). Thus, the influence of menarche on headache seems to be only marginal. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to assess the distribution and characteristics of headache in children aged 7-14 years in Lower Saxony (Germany). For the survey, 8800 households with children were randomly drawn from community registers. Parents received comprehensive questionnaires regarding various aspects of their child's headache history and general health by mail. The response rate was 63.5%. The 6-month prevalence of paediatric headache was 53.2% and increased with age (39% at 7 years to 63% at age 14). Overall, recurrent headache (> or =1/week) was experienced by 6.5% of the total sample and was significantly more common among older girls (> or =11 years) than their male counterparts. Boys and girls did not differ markedly from one another regarding headache occurrence and frequency until the age of 11. Mean age of headache onset was 7.5 years, with onset occurring at a significantly younger age among boys than among girls. In accordance with International Classification of Headache Disorders-II criteria, migraine was diagnosed in 7.5% and tension-type headache in 18.5% of the cases, hence a large proportion of the children had unclassifiable headache. Of the headache disorders, migraine was rated the most disabling, with the highest average intensity, highest frequency, duration of headache often exceeding 2 h and more frequent use of medication. In general, aura symptoms were rare except for visual disturbances (17%). Paediatric headache was strongly associated with other health problems, including other pain symptoms. Paediatric headache was also associated with a history of parental headache. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This study was aimed at finding the prevalence, associated factors, and symptomatology of migraine among 5 to 8 grades of secondary and 9 to 11 grades of high school children (age range between 11 and 18 years old) in the Denizli urban area in the western part of Turkey. BACKGROUND: Data from the developed countries indicate that migraine is the most common cause of recurrent headaches in children. Also, childhood migraine is sufficiently severe to prevent the half of the suffering children from carrying on their usual daily activities. METHODS: A cross-sectional school-based study was conducted between May 2000 and June 2000. There were 2,490 participants selected by a multistage stratified clustered sampling procedure. A validated self-administered questionnaire designed according to the International Headache Society criteria was given to the school children of age between 11 and 18 years. RESULTS: Overall migraine prevalence was 8.8%; it was 6.7% in boys and 11.0% in girls (OR: 1.7; 95% CI: 1.3 to 2.3). Among girls, the highest prevalence (17.7%) occurred at 15 years of age, but among boys, the highest prevalence (11.9%) occurred at 16 years of age. Of children with migraine, 56.5% had a positive family history, and only 29.1% visited a doctor for headache. CONCLUSION: Migraine is a common health problem among school children in Denizli urban area and it often goes underdiagnosed. 相似文献

We conducted a self-administered questionnaire to investigate ice-cream headache in school adolescents aged 13-15 in Taiwan. The target population was 8789 students in 6 public junior high schools. A total of 8359 students completed the questionnaire (response rate 95.1%). The prevalence of ice-cream headache was 40.6%. It was significantly higher in boys than in girls, and increased with grade. Students with migraine had a higher frequency of ice-cream headache compared with the students without migraine (55.2% vs. 39.6%, P < 0.0001). The prevalence of ice-cream headache increased among students with more migrainous features. Approximately one third of students decreased their intake of ice cream, or abstained completely, especially the younger students. Our study suggests ice-cream headache is very common in Taiwanese adolescents, and it is more common in students who experienced migraine. 相似文献

To study changes in headache prevalence during childhood, adolescence and early adulthood, we performed a prospective long-term
follow-up study on an unselected child population. Seven-year-old children, resident in a Finnish city and starting primary
school, were followed for 15 years. Data were collected at the ages of 7, 13, 14, and 22 years. Number of children participating
in all four stages was 1205. Number of participants answering questions concerning the prevalence of headache in different
ages varied between 918–1204. Face-to-face interviews and structured questionnaires were employed. After the start of compulsory
school, the prevalence of overall headache rose from the preschool level of 27.1% to 63.6% at age 14 years to 66.2% at age
22 years. At preschool age, the prevalence of migraine was 4.3% in girls and 3.6% in boys. In girls, the highest prevalence
rate (15.2%) occurred at the age of 13 years, and was higher than the peak prevalence in boys (6.5%). After the onset of puberty,
a temporary decrease of migraine prevalence was found in girls, and a permanent one in boys. The overall prevalence of headache
remained virtually unchanged during and after puberty. Headache and migraine are relatively prevalent at preschool age but
entering puberty represents a substantially increased risk of headache without a great variation throughout puberty and in
young adulthood. Preschool headaches do not necessarily persist and may disappear during and after puberty. From the preventive
viewpoint, the target children are those who either continue to have headache or who develop headache during school years.

Objectives.—This study investigated the disability of females who have migraine and other headache attacks occurring during and outside the menstrual period.
Methods.—One thousand four hundred and thirty-four of 3470 female patients (41.3%) aged 14 to 50 years registered at a UK general practice completed two questionnaires. The first questionnaire assessed the prevalence of headache, depression, and bodily pain in the total population. The second questionnaire assessed the disability of all headaches over a 2-month period (to capture a complete menstrual cycle) for patients reporting migraine who were still menstruating. Disability was assessed as the time lost and time spent at less than 50% productivity in normal activities due to headache, and analyzed as rank sums using the Mann-Whitney U -test.
Results.—The first part of the study showed that the prevalence of headache (66.1%), depression (55.4%), and bodily pain (40.6%) were high in this population of women. Thirty migraine patients who were still menstruating reported 89 migraine and 114 nonmigraine headache episodes in the second part of the study. For migraine, the rank order of time at less than 50% productivity was greater for attacks taking place inside the menstrual period than for those occurring outside the menstrual period. The comparison was significant for time at less than 50% productivity ( P = .01). For nonmigraine headaches, the rank order of time lost was greater for attacks taking place outside the menstrual period than for those occurring inside the menstrual period. The comparison was not significant for time lost ( P = .06).
Conclusions.—For those with migraine, migraine attacks that took place during the menstrual period tended to be slightly more disabling than those taking place outside the menstrual period, but the opposite was true for nonmigraine headache. 相似文献

Prevalence of Headache in Prepuberty 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
SYNOPSIS
The present study dealt with the prevalence of headache generally and migraine in particular among school children. The sample consisted of a total of 3,784 school children, accounting for 94.5% of all grade school pupils aged 13 in two Finnish cities, Tampere and Turku. The data were obtained by use of a questionnaire, filled in by the pupils according to instructions under the supervision of the class's homeroom teacher during class. Headache had occurred during 1980 in 82% of the pupils. In about one-half (53%) of the pupils it had occurred less than once a month. It occurred monthly in 9% and weekly in 8%. Frequent headache was more common in girls than in boys and was also more commonly paroxysmal in character. Boys had had headaches more often before 1980 than during 1980, whereas in girls headaches had become more common in 1980 than before. Migraine was found to occur for 11.3% of the pupils. It was more common in girls (14.5%) than in boys (8.1%). Classic migraine, in particular, occurred more often in girls. Migraine had ceased to occur prior to 1980 in 24% of cases. In particular those attacks which involved a family history of migraine, visual aura or nausea and/or vomiting had ceased to occur. Migraine too had more commonly ceased to occur in boys (23.3%) than in girls (15.1%). Comparison with previous research showed that the occurrence of migraine had more than doubled during 25 years. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to collect and analyse information on the prevalence of childhood migraine and disability due to migraine in primary school children of 4th to 8th grades (ages ranging from 9 to 17 years) in the Aydin urban area. A cross-sectional school-based study was conducted between March and June 2004. There were 76 333 children of 4th to 8th grades in primary schools in Aydin. Nearly 10% of this population (7721 out of 76 333) was evaluated by a multistage clustered sampling procedure. Four questionnaire forms were applied to each child by a study neurologist during class time. Questionnaire A consisted of a single question, 'Have you ever had a headache?'. To those who responded 'yes', questionnaire B was applied as a second step, which consisted of eight questions. Diagnosis of migraine headache was made according to International Classification of Headache Disorders 2004. Migraine disability was measured with questionnaire C, which was originally the Pediatric Migraine Disability Assessment (PedMIDAS). Migraine history, previous migraine diagnosis and pain intensity were measured with questionnaire D. According to questionnaire A, 79.6% of boys and 87.1% of girls suffered from headaches. The prevalence of migraine was 9.7% (7.8% in boys, 11.7% in girls) according to questionnaire B. The male:female ratio was 1:1.5. Total PedMIDAS score was 9.94 +/- 8.41 days in boys and 11.50 +/- 12.28 days in girls. Only 1.9% of the children had previously been diagnosed with migraine. The average migraine headache history was 2.48 +/- 1.18 years in girls and 2.57 +/- 1.18 years in boys. Although migraine is a common health problem among school children in Aydin, it is mostly still under-recognized. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence and sociodemographic characteristics of headaches among Turkish adolescents aged 12 to 17 years old in Bursa province of Turkey. METHODS: A multistep, stratified, cluster sampling method was used for subject selection. The estimated sample size for 12- to 14-year-old students was 1,270 and for 15- to 17-year-old students was 1,117. Our study sample included 6.5% of the secondary schools and 1.8% of the students aged 12 to 17 years old. The study was conducted in two phases; the questionnaire phase and the face-to-face interview phase. RESULTS: The prevalence of recurrent headache in the study population was 52.2%. Girls (59.8%) had significantly more recurrent headache than boys (45.1%) The prevalence of recurrent headache increased from 42.2% up to 60.7% by age. In multivariate logistic regression analysis age and gender differed significantly between adolescents with and without recurrent headache groups. Frequent episodic tension-type headache was the most common (25.9%) headache among Turkish adolescents, followed by migraine (14.5%). CONCLUSIONS: Age and gender appeared to be demographic factors increasing adolescent headache prevalence. Frequent episodic-tension type headache was the most common headache followed by migraine. Our migraine prevalence was slightly higher than most of the previously reported prevalence rates. This might be due to the new classification criteria of headache released by International Headache Society. 相似文献

Prevalence and diagnosis of migraine in patients consulting their physician with a complaint of headache: data from the Landmark Study 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Tepper SJ Dahlöf CG Dowson A Newman L Mansbach H Jones M Pham B Webster C Salonen R 《Headache》2004,44(9):856-864
CONTEXT: Headache experts have suggested that to improve the recognition of migraine, patients with a stable pattern of episodic, disabling headache and a normal physical exam should be considered to have migraine in the absence of contradictory evidence. The premise upon which this approach is based-that is, that episodic, recurrent primary headache in the clinic is usually migraine-has not been evaluated in prospective clinical studies. OBJECTIVES: To (1) evaluate the diagnoses of patients consulting their physician with primary episodic headache and (2) compare clinic diagnoses and patient self-diagnoses with International Headache Society (IHS) headache diagnoses assigned on the basis of longitudinal data from patient diaries. DESIGN: Prospective, open-label study. During the screening visit, patients self-reported a headache diagnosis and then were assigned a headache diagnosis by their physician following his or her customary practice. Patients with a new physician diagnosis of migraine or nonmigraine primary headache were given diaries to record headache symptoms for up to 3 months or 6 attacks. Members of an expert panel, unaware of the clinic diagnosis, used diary data to assign a headache diagnosis to each attack and to each patient. SETTING: One hundred twenty-eight (128) practices in 15 countries including the United States. PATIENTS: A total of 1203 male and female patients between 18 and 65 years of age who consulted their physician with headache as a primary or secondary complaint. RESULTS: Overall, 94% of patients with a physician diagnosis of nonmigraine primary headache or a new clinic diagnosis of migraine had IHS-defined migraine (76%) or probable migraine (migrainous) (18%) headache on the basis of longitudinal diary data. A new clinic diagnosis of migraine was almost always correct: 98% of patients with a clinic diagnosis of migraine had IHS-defined migraine (87% of patients) or probable migraine (11% of patients) headache on the basis of longitudinal diary data. On the other hand, review of diaries of patients with a clinic diagnosis of nonmigraine revealed that 82% of these patients had IHS-defined migraine (48%) or probable migraine (34%) headache. Altogether, one in four patients (25%) with IHS-defined migraine according to longitudinal diary data did not receive a clinic diagnosis of migraine. CONCLUSIONS: These findings support the diagnostic approach of considering episodic, disabling primary headaches with an otherwise normal physical exam to be migraine in the absence of contradictory evidence. If in doubt of diagnosis or when assigning a nonmigraine diagnosis, strong consideration should be given to the use of a diary to confirm primary headache diagnosis. 相似文献

The 1988 International
Headache Society (IHS) classification
has greatly contributed to overcoming
the obstacles that had made
it difficult in the past to compare
results of surveys on headache epidemiology.
For migraine without
aura, the more recent studies of the
general adult population indicate
lifetime prevalence rates between
6% and 10% for men and between
15% and 26% for women. One–year
prevalence rates are between 2%
and 15% for men and between 4%
and 35% for women. Rates of frequent
migraine are 6% in men and
14% in women. Migraine occurs in
3%–6% of prepubertal children with
no significant differences between
girls and boys. The prevalence of
migraine without aura increases progressively
from the age of 12 years
up to about the age of 40, when it
begins to record a gradual, progressive
decrease down to 1%–4% in
the elderly. For migraine with aura,
recent epidemiological investigations
by Rasmussen and Olesen
indicate a lifetime prevalence rate
of 6% and a one-year prevalence
rate of 4%. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate whether the IHS criteria for migraine and tension-type headache depend on gender. Among 409 children and adolescents with recurrent idiopathic headache seen at a university outpatient clinic, girls had significantly more often migraine with aura. Also, there was a trend towards a higher frequency of tension-type headache in girls. In migraine, aggravation of headache by physical activity and occurrence of aura symptoms were more common in females, whereas vomiting and phonophobia occurred more often in males. In tension-type headache, females more often reported mild intensity of headache. All other criteria were similar in both sexes. Age influenced the expression of some of the accompanying symptoms in the various types of migraine, but had only minimal influence on other diagnostic criteria of migraine and tension-type headache in females as well as in males. Our study suggests that the frequency of migraine (except that of migraine with aura) is similar among girls and boys, that tension-type headache may occur more often in girls, and that gender has some influence on the IHS criteria for migraine, but almost no influence on those of tension-type headache. 相似文献

We studied the outcome of migraine from early school-age to prepuberty in a group of 84 children. The children belonged to a population-based, unselected follow-up sample of a 1-year age cohort. At the age of 8 to 9 years, 95 (2.7%) children of this age cohort had migraine according to a postal questionnaire. At age 11 to 12 years, 84 of them were traced and interviewed face-to-face. Only four (4.8%) of these children no longer had headache. Fifty-three (63.1%) children had migraine. Seventeen (20.2%) had migraine-type headache which did not completely fulfil the International Headache Society criteria for migraine, seven (8.3%) children had episodic tension-type headache and three (3.6%) had other headache. Among the children who had migraine at age 11 to 12, boys had significantly more frequent migraine attacks than girls (mean 2.7/month versus 1.8/month; p =0.016). They also used more drugs and were more frequently absent from school because of headache than girls, but these differences were not significant. Problems in the relationships between parents seemed to be another factor associated with frequent migraine. 相似文献
