Research Summary
A recent study published in Brain and Behavior reveals the increasing migraine burden in China and other G20 countries from 1990 to 2021, using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021. The research highlights a significant rise in migraine incidence, prevalence, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and years lived with disability (YLDs), with females consistently experiencing nearly twice the prevalence compared to males. Predictive models suggest that without effective interventions, the gender gap and overall burden will worsen from 2030 to 2050. The study underscores the urgent need for tailored public health strategies to address these disparities across age, sex, and regions.
