Abstract :

Migraine is a common, primary, chronic/intermittent neurovascular headache disorder characterized by episodic severe headache and in some patients, transient neurologic symptoms, known as migraine aura. Previous studies show thatmigraine, particularly migraine with aura, is associated with many other dysfunctions. The study was conducted on 100 subjects, of which 50 were migraine patients (cases). The remaining 50 subjects formed the control group. Thus the two groups consist of Group A (cases) composed of 50 migraine patients aged 20–40 years and Group B (controls) composed of 50 healthy adults with no clinical signs and symptoms of migraine. The subjects included in both group were assessed for BMI and lipid profile. In our study the difference of mean value of BMI was not statistically significant (P=0.2188) and the mean value of TC, TG, HDL & VLDL was statistically non significant (P=0.5226, P=0.8659, P=0.1549 & P=0.1350 respectively) but difference of mean of LDL was statistically significant (P<0.0001***). We concluded that the lipid profile status cause increased incidences of cardiovascular and cereovascular events in migraineurs.
