Hungarian migraine epidemiology 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
OBJECTIVE: A population-based epidemiological survey of migraine without aura and migraine with aura completed by mailed questionnaire in Hungary. The diagnosis and classification of migraine was according to the criteria of the International Headache Society. METHODS: The validity of the self-administered headache questionnaire was evaluated by a neurologist using clinical interviews. The study population was a random sample of 2000 men and women aged between 15 and 80 years. The questionnaire was completed by 813 of 1910 people (392 men and 421 women), providing a 42.6% participation rate. RESULTS: Sixty-seven percent of these people experienced some kind of headache during their lives. The 1-year prevalence of migraine without aura was 7.6% (the female/male ratio was 3:1), while the 1-year prevalence of migraine with aura was 2% (female/male ratio was 2:1). Most migraineurs experienced headache attacks 1 to 4 times monthly, which lasted 24 hours. The most characteristic accompanying signs were nausea and phonophobia. Stress, sleep deprivation, hot weather, and fasting were the most common precipitating factors of a migraine attack. In the migraine with aura group, the most common aura was a visual disturbance. Only 43% of migraineurs had ever consulted a physician for headache, and only 15% of patients had missed work or school because of a migraine attack in the previous year. Most of the patients suffering from migraine without aura were between 20 and 40 years old, while migraineurs with aura were over 40 years old. According to this investigation, the prevalence of migraine was not lower than in Western countries. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to estimate the prevalence of migraine among Croatian adults. This is the first epidemiological study of migraine in Croatia in which the operational diagnostic criteria of the International Headache Society have been applied. METHODS: The study population consisted of all residents (aged 15 to 65 years) of Bakar, County of The Coast and Gorski Kotar, Croatia. A population-based survey was undertaken using a "face-to-face, door-to-door" interview METHOD: The participation rate was 73.3%. All participants were screened for headache history according to the International Headache Society criteria. Headache screen positive responders (65.7%) were interviewed by trained medical students with a structured detailed interview focused on migraine. RESULTS: A total of 720 lifetime migraineurs were identified. The lifetime prevalence of migraine was 22.9% (95% confidence interval, 20.9 to 25.1) in women, 14.8% (95% confidence interval, 13.1 to 16.8) in men, and 19% (95% confidence interval, 17.6 to 20.5) in both sexes. The highest lifetime prevalence of migraine was in women in the age group 40 to 49 years (38.1%). Among 636 active migraineurs, 399 (62.7%) were women and 237 (37.3%) were men; 55.8% had migraine without aura, 35.2% migraine with aura, and 6.9% migraine both with and without aura. The 1-year prevalence of migraine, migraine without aura, migraine with aura, and migraine both with and without aura in women was 18%, 11.3%, 8.6%, and 2.2%, respectively. In men, the 1-year prevalence of migraine, migraine without aura, migraine with aura, and migraine both with and without aura was 12.3%, 7.3%, 3%, and 0.7%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of migraine in this Croatian population showed rates quite similar to those reported in neighboring countries, such as Italy and France. Further studies are needed to estimate the prevalence rates of migraine in the total Croatian population. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To determine prevalence and characteristics of migraine in Japan, and to investigate use of medical care and whether food preference is associated with risk of migraine. METHODS: Structured questionnaires were given to all adult residents (N = 5758; 2681 men and 3077 women) in Daisen, a rural community in western Japan. Second questionnaires, specific to headache, were given to 1628 residents with headache. A telephone survey was also carried out. Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences analyzed the data. RESULTS: The 1-year prevalence of migraine was 2.3% (migraine with aura, 0.4% and without aura, 1.9%) in men and 9.1% (migraine with aura, 1.0% and migraine without aura, 8.1%) in women. Overall prevalence of migraine in Daisen was 6.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.4% to 6.6%). Women observed a 5.9-fold higher risk of migraine than men (odds ratio, 5.9; 95% CI, 4.5 to 8.0; P <.0001, after age adjustment, by logistic analysis). Fatigue and loss of vigor were predominant premonitory symptoms of migraine. Fatigue, mental stress, and lack of sleep were the main headache triggers. Over a 3-month period, 20.3% of migraineurs experienced time or days off work due to headache. Only 7.3% of those with migraine with aura and 5.3% of those with migraine without aura had consulted a physician, and of those with migraine, 61.0% with aura and 71.8% without aura had never visited a medical doctor for their headache. Consumption of alcohol and cigarette smoking did not influence the risk for migraine or tension-type headache, after age and gender adjustment (logistic analysis). Migraineurs consume significantly more fatty/oily foods, coffee, and tea than nonheadache subjects of the same community. Migraineurs consume significantly fewer fish than nonheadache residents. CONCLUSIONS: Only a few Japanese migraineurs receive benefits of medical services and recent advances of headache medicine. Public education concerning headaches is one of the most urgent issues in Japan. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To examine the lifetime prevalence and other characteristics of recurrent primary headaches in twins. BACKGROUND: The twin model may provide insights into the role of genetic and environmental influences in headache disorders. However, assumptions as to whether twins are representative of the general population, and whether monozygotic and dizygotic twins are similar have rarely been addressed. METHODS: The study population consisted of a random sample of 17- to 82-year-old twins from the Swedish Twin Registry (n = 1329). Structured interviews on the telephone by lay personnel and the International Headache Society criteria were used for assessment and diagnosis of recurrent primary headaches. Prevalence data of the general population for migraine and tension-type headache was obtained from various published reports. RESULTS: A total of 372 subjects (29%) had ever had recurrent headaches. In total, 241 recurrent headache sufferers fulfilled the criteria for migraine or tension-type headache, and the lifetime prevalence was 7.1% for migraine without aura, 1.4% for migraine always with aura, 1.9% for migraine occasionally with aura, 9.4% for episodic tension-type headache, and 1.3% for chronic tension-type headache. The lifetime prevalence of all migraine and all tension-type headache, including another 84 subjects fulfilling all but one of the criteria for migraine or tension-type headache, was 13.8% and 13.5%, respectively. The corresponding prevalence risk for women was 2.4 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.7, 3.4) and 1.5 (95% CI 1.1, 2.1), respectively. Zygosity was not a significant predictor for migraine. In tension-type headache, the prevalence risk for dizygotic twins and unlike-sexed twins as compared with monozygotic twins was 1.9 (95% CI: 1.2, 3.1) and 1.8 (95% CI: 1.1, 2.9), respectively. CONCLUSION: There is no twin-singleton or monozygotic-dizygotic difference for the risk of migraine. In tension-type headache, twins seem to have a lower risk than singletons, and this is especially true for monozygotic twins. 相似文献

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Migraine and Tension-Type Headache 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Cerebral magnetic resonance imaging was performed on 63 patients with chronic primary headache (28 with migraine with and without aura, 35 with tension-type headache). Fifty-four headache-free individuals of the same age range were used as controls. The headache sufferers showed an incidence of focal white matter abnormalities on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging significantly higher than the age-matched control group (33.3% vs 7.4%). The incidence of white matter abnormalities did not correlate with age (except for patients older than 60 years), sex, headache history, headache status, or ergotamine consumption. Migraine (with and without aura) and tension-type headache patients had similar prevalence of white matter abnormalities (32.1% vs 34.3%). The lesions were predominantly distributed in the frontal region, independent of the side of usual aura or headache. Our findings indicate that both migraine and tension-type headache may be associated with early pathologic changes in the brain and may share, at least in part, common pathogenic pathways. 相似文献

Prevalence of frequent headache in a population sample 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
PURPOSE: Patients with daily or near-daily headaches are commonly seen in neurology practices and in headache subspecialty centers, but there is little information on the prevalence of this condition in the general population. We present the first US-based study describing the prevalence and characteristics of frequent headache in the general population. METHODS: In Baltimore County, Maryland, 13 343 individuals 18 to 65 years of age were selected by random-digit dialing and interviewed by telephone about their headaches. Subjects reporting 180 or more headaches per year were classified as having frequent headache. Three mutually exclusive subtypes of frequent headache were identified: frequent headache with migrainous features, chronic tension-type headache, and unclassified frequent headache. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of frequent headache was 4.1% (5.0% female, 2.8% male; 1.8:1 female to male ratio). Frequent headache was 33% more common in Caucasians (4.4%) than in African Americans (3.3%). In both males and females, prevalence was highest in the lowest educational category. Among frequent headache sufferers, more than half (52% female, 56% male) met criteria for chronic tension-type headache, almost one third (33% female, 25% male) met criteria for frequent headache with migrainous features, and the remainder (15% female, 19% male) were unclassified. Overall, 30% of female and 25% of male frequent headache sufferers met International Headache Society (IHS) criteria for migraine (with or without aura). CONCLUSIONS: Frequent headache is common in the general population and is more prevalent in Caucasians and in those with less than a high school education. Chronic tension-type headache is more common than frequent headache with migrainous features, though the latter is more disabling. Although more common in females than males, the female preponderance of frequent headache is less marked than in migraine. The sex ratio varies by frequent headache subtype. 相似文献

The aims of this ancillary study to the Italian Longitudinal Study of Aging were: (1) to provide reliable prevalence data on headache in an elderly population, (2) to classify the subtypes of headache according to International Headache Society criteria, and (3) to identify possible risk factors and associated pathologies in the elderly.
A total of 312 subjects were examined, 148 women and 164 men, with a mean age of 73 years (SD 5.5). For 236 subjects (75.7%), 141 men (85.9%) and 95 women (64.2%), headache had never been a problem; 57 subjects (18.3%), 21 men (12.8%) and 36 women (24.3%), reported troublesome headache only in the past. Nineteen subjects (6%), 6 men (3.6%) and 13 women (8.8%), reported current headache: in this group tension-type headache was the most prevalent, accounting for 2.6%; secondary headaches ranked second, accounting for 2.2%; and only 1% had current migraine.
Our data indicate female sex and younger age as risk factors for headache, and associate migraine and secondary headaches with hypertension, tension-type headaches and secondary headaches with diabetes, and tension-type headaches with myocardial ischemia. 相似文献

Prevalence of Migraine and Headache in a High-Altitude Town of Peru: A Population-Based Study 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A door-to-door population-based epidemiological study of the prevalence of migraine and headache in a sample of 3246 people older than 15 years of age was carried out in Cuzco, a high-altitude town in the Peruvian Andes, located at 3380 meters.
Among the 3246 screened people, there were 172 cases of migraine and 930 cases of headache, yielding a crude 1-year prevalence of 5.3% for migraine (2.3% among men and 7.8% among women) and 28.7% for headache (17.5% among men and 38.2% among women). Our results suggest that migraine prevalence in Cuzco is close to that of other developing countries, whereas headache prevalence may be higher than in other developing countries. Multivariate logistic regression suggested that both migraine and headache were related to the female sex, age, and anxiety and/or depression.
This study suggests that migraine is a relatively common disorder in Cuzco, but does not show any difference which could be significantly related to altitude. In contrast, our results suggest that headache may be more frequent at high altitude than at sea level. 相似文献

This study was planned to investigate the prevalence of osmophobia in juvenile headache sufferers and to analyse the diagnostic utility of osmophobia in order to distinguish migraine without aura from episodic tension-type headache. We examined 305 consecutive patients presenting at our Paediatric Headache Centre. A semistructured questionnaire was given to 275 selected patients affected by migraine or tension-type headache. The prevalence of osmophobia during attacks was 18.5%, mainly in migraine patients (25.1%) vs. those with tension-type headache (8.3%). Osmophobia showed more specificity than phonophobia or photophobia in the differential diagnosis between migraine and tension-type headache. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that osmophobia resulted in a symptom with poor sensitivity (27.1%) but high specificity (92%) that could become a supportive diagnostic criterion even in children for the differential diagnosis between migraine without aura and tension-type headache. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the age-dependence of the prevalence and characteristics of migraine headache and migraine visual aura. A neurologist interviewed 728 women attending a mammography screening programme. International Headache Society (IHS) criteria were used. The lifetime prevalence of migraine headache was 31.5% and the 1-year prevalence 18.0%. The magnitude of the decline of the prevalence of active (one or more attacks in the previous year) migraine headache was estimated to 50% per decade. The prevalence of active migraine visual aura was 3.8%. This did not vary by age. Except for the pain intensity and the presence of nausea, other characteristics and concomitant symptoms did not change with age. Active migraine headache and migraine visual aura in middle-aged and older women are common and modified differently by age. We suggest that the decline of prevalence of active migraine headache with age is caused by a decrease in pain intensity. 相似文献

A multicenter 3-year follow-up study was carried out on young patients with headache referred to tertiary headache centers or pediatric clinics. Three years after the first examination in 1993, 442 (of an original sample of 719) young outpatients with headache (226 females and 216 males) were re-examined. The diagnostic criteria of the International Headache Society (IHS) and those modified for migraine without aura by Winner et al were applied at both the baseline evaluation and the 3-year re-examination. At the follow-up, 290 children still had headache, 101 were in clinical remission, and 51 had dropped out. Using the current diagnostic criteria, only 46.2% of patients having migraine without aura, 50% of those having migraine with aura, and 35.3% of those suffering from migraine disorders which do not fulfill IHS criteria for migraine received the same diagnosis at the time of follow-up. The percentage of patients receiving a diagnosis of migraine without aura rose significantly when new modified criteria were used (60.5%), whereas a drop in the frequency of migraine disorders not fulfilling IHS criteria was observed at follow-up, both in patients with the diagnosis of migraine without aura at the first examination (4.6%) and in patients with migraine not always fulfilling IHS criteria at the first examination (6.2%). Among all patients who received this latter diagnosis at the first examination, it was possible to make a diagnosis of migraine with aura at the follow-up in 8.8% of cases and that of migraine without aura in 26.5%. No significant variations in the frequency of either episodic tension-type headache or chronic tension-type headache were found, with the exception of a slight decrease in the percentage of tension-type headache which did not fulfill IHS criteria, but the difference between the first examination and the follow-up values does not reach the level of statistical significance (5% versus 12%). As far as the evolution of migraine is concerned, 17.4% of patients with migraine were headache-free at the 3-year follow-up. In tension-type headache, the percentage of patients who were headache-free was particularly high in those with the episodic form (32.9%) and in those suffering from tension-type headache not fulfilling IHS criteria (29.1%). The majority of patients who had been diagnosed as having unclassifiable headache at the first examination received a correct diagnosis at the follow-up with the exception of one patient. As observed in adult patients, variations in the headache characteristics were also observed in children and adolescents (that is, migraine with aura can change to migraine without aura, or the latter can transform into episodic tension-type headache or chronic tension-type headache can change into the episodic form). This follow-up study was aimed at reaching a better understanding of headache disturbances in children and adolescents, examining, in particular, variations of headache with time in this stage of life. 相似文献

Several studies have shown that the prevalence of migraine and tension-type headache (TTH) varied between different geographical
regions. Therefore, there is a need of a nationwide prevalence study for headache in our country, located between Asia and
Europe. This nationwide study was designed to estimate the 1-year prevalence of migraine and TTH and analyse the clinical
features, the impact as well as the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the participant households in Turkey.
We planned to investigate 6,000 representative households in 21 cities of Turkey; and a total of 5,323 households (response
rate of 89%) aged between 18 and 65 years were examined for headache by 33 trained physicians at home on the basis of the
diagnostic criteria of the second edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD-II). The electronically
registered questionnaire was based on the headache features, the associated symptoms, demographic and socio-economic situation
and history. Of 5,323 participants (48.8% women; mean age 35.9 ± 12 years) 44.6% reported recurrent headaches during the last
1 year and 871 were diagnosed with migraine at a prevalence rate of 16.4% (8.5% in men and 24.6% in women), whereas only 270
were diagnosed with TTH at a prevalence rate of 5.1% (5.7% in men and 4.5% in women). The 1-year prevalence of probable migraine
was 12.4% and probable TTH was 9.5% additionally. The rate of migraine with aura among migraineurs was 21.5%. The prevalence
of migraine was highest among 35–40-year-old women while there were no differences in age groups among men and in TTH overall.
More than 2/3 of migraineurs had ever consulted a physician whereas only 1/3 of patients with TTH had ever consulted a physician.
For women, the migraine prevalence was higher among the ones with a lower income, while among men, it did not show any change
by income. Migraine prevalence was lower in those with a lower educational status compared to those with a high educational
status. Chronic daily headache was present in 3.3% and the prevalence of medication overuse headache was 2.1% in our population.
There was an important impact of migraine with a monthly frequency of 5.9 ± 6, and an attack duration of 35.1 ± 72 h, but
only 4.9% were on prophylactic treatment. The one-year prevalence of migraine estimated as 16.4% was similar or even higher
than world-wide reported migraine prevalence figures and identical to a previous nation-wide study conducted in 1998, whereas
the TTH prevalence was much lower using the same methodology with the ICHD-II criteria. 相似文献

In order to study the prevalence of frequent headaches among the medical students of Athens University, an epidemiological survey was carried out among 588 medical students (318 men and 270 women), with mean age 23.5 years. Two questionnaires were designed for the study: one general, consisting of 10 questions and a second one, specific for headache sufferers, consisting of 117 questions. All those with headache who voluntarily completed the two questionnaires also underwent a neurological examination. Thirty point eight percent of men and 50.3% of women reported various headache attacks during the previous 6 months (39.6% in both sexes). However, only the 11.9% of students (from both sexes) reported that they suffered from disturbing headaches. The 6-month prevalence of migraine was 2.4% and 9.5% for tension-type headache (in both sexes). Cluster headache was not traced. The prevalence of nonclassifiable headaches (according to the criteria of the International Headache Society) was 0.85%. Headache was correlated to sex (more frequent among women) and anxiety level (Hamilton scale for anxiety). Headache prevalence was not correlated to smoking and social class. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to estimate the 1-year prevalence of the following categories of headache; migraine, non-migrainous headache, frequent headache (>6 days/month), and chronic headache (>14 days/month). Between 1995 and 1997, all 92,566 inhabitants 20 years and older in Nord-Tr?ndelag county in Norway were invited to a comprehensive health study. Out of 64,560 participants, a total of 51,383 subjects (80%) completed a headache questionnaire. The overall age-adjusted 1-year prevalence of headache was 38% (46% in women and 30% in men). The prevalence of migraine was 12% (16% in women and 8% in men), and for non-migrainous headache 26% (30% in women and 22% in men). For frequent headache (> 6 days per month) and for chronic headache (>14 days per month), the prevalence was 8% and 2%, respectively. Women had a higher prevalence than men in all age groups and for all headache categories. Prevalence peaked in the fourth decade of life for both men and women, except for 'frequent non-migrainous headache', which was nearly constant across all age groups in both genders. In accordance with findings in other western countries, we found that headache suffering, including migraine, was highly prevalent, especially in younger women. 相似文献

Migraine, chronic tension-type headache, and cluster headache in an Ethiopian rural community 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Fifteen-thousand-five hundred adults (³20 years) in a rural district in Ethiopia with a population of 250 000 were studied for chronic headache. Door-to-door survey was performed by trained lay health workers using a questionnaire with a high degree or reliability and validity. The 1-year prevalence of migraine headache was 3.0% (4.2% for females and 1.7% for males) with the peak age specific rate in the fourth decade. Migraine headache was about three times more common in females than in males at any decade. Two-thirds of migraine sufferers had rather frequent attacks. The most frequent trigger factors were emotional stress (90%), changes of weather (78%), physical exhaustion (75%), and smell (70%). Migraine with aura was rare. Family occurrence of migraine in first-degree relatives was 30%. The 1-year prevalence of chronic tension-type headache was 1.7%, while cluster headache was found to be extremely rare. Compared to similarly performed surveys, the prevalence of migraine among rural Ethiopians was less than among Nigerian Africans. 相似文献

IHS criteria and gender: a study on migraine and tension-type headache in children and adolescents 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

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

OBJECTIVE: To determine the 1-year point prevalence of migraine among residents > or =15 years old in 12 Latin American urban communities, and record medical consultation preferences of the identified migraineurs. BACKGROUND: Prevalence of migraine with or without aura in Latin American urban communities has not been established by large-scale population studies. METHODS: A validated face-to-face interview questionnaire based on International Headache Society criteria was completed for all headache sufferers within selected households, in a cross-sectional study. The randomly selected populations were representative of urban communities from the six participating Latin American countries. The questionnaire used was identical in each of the six participating countries. RESULTS: Of the 8618 people available for screening, 62% reported headache and 2637 completed interview questionnaires. Age-adjusted 1-year prevalence of migraine with or without aura for each country was (female/male, %): Argentina 6.1/3.8, Brazil 17.4/7.8, Colombia 13.8/4.8, Ecuador 13.5/2.9, Mexico 12.1/3.9, and Venezuela 12.2/4.7. Migraine prevalence was highest in women aged 30 to 50 years. In the year prior to the study, 42% of individuals interviewed and identified with migraine reported consulting a health professional about their headaches, most frequently (14%) a general practitioner. No previous diagnosis of migraine was reported by 65% of individuals with headache. CONCLUSIONS: In agreement with previous epidemiologic reports, migraine is also a common disorder in Latin American urban communities and predominantly affects women aged 30 to 50 years. Consultation preferences are also similar to those of previous reports. 相似文献

Epidemiology of migraine among students from randomly selected secondary schools in Lodz 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The purpose of the present study was to determine the prevalence of migraine among 2351 secondary school students aged 15 to 19 years. Six hundred fifty-nine students (120 males and 539 females) complained of migraine, including 148 with additional tension-type headache (mixed headache). Migraine with aura was diagnosed in 213 students (49 with mixed headache). The remaining 446 students (99 with mixed headache) had migraine without aura. In 83 students (16 with mixed headache), headaches were developing into migrainous states. In 237 students (56 with mixed headache), headaches were accompanied by dizziness. In 128 females (25 with mixed headache), interrelation between migraine and menstruation was found. Familial factors affecting the occurrence of migraine were noted in 536 students (127 with mixed headache). It was found that 28% of secondary school students aged 15 to 19 years suffer from migraine. Nine percent of them have migraine with aura and 19%, migraine without aura. The prevalence of migraine among secondary school students is about three times higher in females than in males. Migraine with tension-type headache differs from pure migraine in respect of more numerous attacks within 1 year among females, and of more frequent occurrence of migraine with sensory aura among males. 相似文献

SYNOPSIS
The Monks of Athos in Greece constitute a particular group with unusual sleep schedule and specific diet. In order to study the frequency of headache among them, a special questionnaire was designed. Four hundred forty-nine monks below the age of 50 were approached, 39 of whom suffered from frequent (more than one episode per month, in the last 6 months) headaches (8.68%). The prevalence of migraine was 1.78% (0.66% with aura and 1.11% without) and of tension-type headache 3.34% (1.33% chronic and 2% episodic). Furthermore, 1.87% of monks suffered from mixed headaches (tension-type and migraine attacks as well). Cluster headache was not traced. 相似文献
