Prevalence and clinical factors of migraine in patients with spontaneous coronary artery dissection

Journal of the American Heart Association Dec 19, 2018

Kok SN, et al. - Researchers examined spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) patients for migraine prevalence and assessed differences in clinical factors based on migraine history. This cohort study performed using the Mayo Clinic SCAD “Virtual” Multi-Center Registry, comprised 585 patients (96% women). Among these, 236 had migraine history; the lifetime and 1-year prevalence of a migraine was 40% and 26%, respectively. This indicates that many SCAD patients display a history of a migraine. SCAD patients with a migraine are characterized by their younger age at the time of SCAD; by more aneurysms, pseudoaneurysms, and dissections among those imaged; and by a more frequent history of depression and post-SCAD chest pain.
