Key clinical point: Migraine may be associated with an increased risk for any stroke and ischemic stroke in middle-aged and elderly populations.
Major finding: Findings suggested an association between migraine and risk for any stroke (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.44; P = .076) and ischemic stroke (aHR 1.50; P = .067), but without statistical significance.
Study details: This ongoing prospective population-based cohort study included 6925 stroke-free participants, of which 1030 participants had a lifetime history of migraine and 195 participants developed incident stroke.
Disclosures: This study received funding from Erasmus Medical Center, Erasmus University, Netherlands, and other sources. AMVD Brink declared receiving support from the Dutch Research Council and research grants or consulting fees from AbbVie/Allergan and other sources.
