Key clinical point: The prevalence of migraine is higher in children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) vs those without.
Major finding: The risk of developing migraine was significantly higher in patients with ADHD than in matched controls (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.92; 95% CI 1.64-2.31) with the risk being prominent in children (aHR 2.01; 95% CI 1.63-2.49) and adolescents (aHR 1.94; 95% CI 1.35-2.79) but not in young adults with ADHD.
Study details: This was a nationwide longitudinal case-cohort study including 81,441 patients (including children, adolescents, and young adults aged 3-11, 12-17, and 18-29 years, respectively) with ADHD and 81,441 matched controls without ADHD.
Disclosures: The study was supported by grants from Taipei Veterans General Hospital; Kaohsiung Veterans General Hospital; Yen Tjing Ling Medical Foundation; and the Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
