Analysis of Sleep Quality and Its Associated Factors in Adolescents with Migraine.
J Pain Res | 2026
Observational studySummary
This study looked at sleep quality in adolescents with migraines. Researchers assessed 168 adolescents, including 50 healthy controls and 118 migraine patients. They used several questionnaires to measure migraine-related disability, anxiety, depression, and sleep quality. Among the migraine patients, 25 had good sleep quality, while 93 had poor sleep quality. Results showed that adolescents with migraines had higher anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbance scores than healthy peers. Those with poor sleep quality experienced more headache days and reported greater pain intensity. The findings highlight a clear link between poor sleep and increased migraine symptoms. Improving sleep quality may help reduce the frequency and intensity of migraines in adolescents. This research emphasizes the importance of addressing sleep issues in young migraine sufferers to enhance their overall well-being and quality of life. Clinical relevance: This study suggests that improving sleep quality in adolescents with migraines may reduce headache frequency and severity, leading to better overall health outcomes.
