Migraine epidemiology, comorbidities and therapeutic landscape: a national population-based study

This large national population-based study reveals a high comorbidity burden among patients with migraine and suggests significant underdiagnosis compared to global benchmarks. The use of preventive treatment remained strikingly low, including novel migraine-specific therapies. These findings underscore the need for improved migraine recognition, integrated multidisciplinary care, and policy-level strategies to reduce the burden of this disabling condition.

Abstract

This large national population-based study reveals a high comorbidity burden among patients with migraine and suggests significant underdiagnosis compared to global benchmarks. The use of preventive treatment remained strikingly low, including novel migraine-specific therapies. These findings underscore the need for improved migraine recognition, integrated multidisciplinary care, and policy-level strategies to reduce the burden of this disabling condition.
