Machine Learning Assessment of Next-Day Migraine Likelihood Using Data From 53,000 App Users Living With Migraine

The ability to anticipate an impending migraine attack has the potential to improve patients' well-being, yet previous models have shown limited performance. The current study aimed to develop and evaluate a machine learning (ML) model to identify risk of next-day migraine attacks based on electronic diaries, leveraging the longest preattack time frame (30 days) and the largest prospective dataset of patients with migraine (over 53,000) to date.

Abstract

The ability to anticipate an impending migraine attack has the potential to improve patients' well-being, yet previous models have shown limited performance. The current study aimed to develop and evaluate a machine learning (ML) model to identify risk of next-day migraine attacks based on electronic diaries, leveraging the longest preattack time frame (30 days) and the largest prospective dataset of patients with migraine (over 53,000) to date.
