Demographics Influence Migraine Severity: Study Insights

Research Summary

A recent study published in Revista de Neurología explored how sociodemographic factors affect migraine attack characteristics. Analyzing 377 attacks from 51 patients using a smartphone app, researchers found that women experience more intense headaches and nausea. Additionally, those with lower cognitive reserve and higher Headache Impact Test-6 scores also faced more severe headaches. Hemicranial pain was more frequent in individuals with a longer history of migraines. This real-time data collection highlights the variability in migraine symptoms and suggests that personalized treatment strategies could be beneficial, as patient demographics appear to significantly impact migraine experiences.
