Although the prevalence of migraine has remained largely unchanged for the past 30 years, migraine-associated disability nearly doubled during that time.
Although the prevalence of migraine in the United States has remained stable over the past three decades, migraine-related disability has nearly doubled during that time, a new systematic review showed.
Of 1609 studies initially reviewed, the researchers included 26 publications from 11 US population-based studies. Although researchers said the exact reason for the increase is unknown, possible explanations include changes in study methodology from mailed questionnaires to web surveys or the decline in participation rate in web surveys. It is also possible that people with migraine may be more willing to report disability than they used to be, authors wrote.
