Key clinical point: Migraine increased the risk for premature ischemic stroke similarly among women and men aged ≤60 years; however, the effect of migraine on the risk for premature myocardial infarction (MI) and hemorrhagic stroke was greater only in women but not in men with migraine.
Major finding: Compared with those without migraine, women (adjusted HR [aHR] 1.21) and men (aHR 1.23; both P < .001) with migraine showed a similar increase in the risk for premature ischemic stroke. However, the risk for premature MI (aHR 1.22; 95% CI 1.14-1.31; P < .001) and hemorrhagic stroke (aHR 1.13; 95% CI 1.02-1.24; P = .014) was significantly higher in women with vs without migraine but not in men.
Study details: This nationwide population-based cohort study included 179,680 women and 40,757 men with migraine.
