Key clinical point: Migraine, including migraine with aura (MWA) and migraine without aura (MWoA), was not a significant factor for stroke caused by cerebral small-vessel disease (CSVD) in adult patients hospitalized with first-ever ischemic stroke.
Major findings: Patients with migraine (P = .003), those with MWA (P = .02), and those with MWoA (P = .04) were found to have a significantly lower prevalence of CSVD lesions than those without migraine. There was no significant association between CSVD lesions of any grade and migraine (P = .34), MWA (P = .60), and MWoA (P = .51).
Study details: This retrospective case-control study included 646 patients who were hospitalized for their first-ever ischemic stroke, of whom 225 (34.82%) had migraine. Among those with migraine, 115 (17.8%) had MWA and 110 (17.02%) had MWoA.
Disclosure: This study received no specific funding. One author declared receiving speaker fees from various pharmaceutical companies.
