Cumulative Lifetime Migraine Incidence in Women and Men
Open accessAbstract
The aim was to estimate lifetime sex and age-specific incidence of migraine. Data are from the American Migraine Prevalence and Prevention study, a mailed survey sent to 120 000 US households. Age-specific incidence was estimated using self-reported data relevant to identification of migraine cases, age of onset of migraine and age at interview. Migraine incidence peaked between the ages of 20 and 24 years in women (18.2/1000 person-years) and the ages of 15 and 19 years in men (6.2/1000 person-years). Cumulative incidence was 43± in women and 18± in men. Median age of onset was 25 years among women and 24 years among men. Onset in 50± of cases occurred before age 25 and in 75± before age 35 years. Four of every 10 women and two of every 10 men will contract migraine in their lifetime, most before age 35 years. The incidence estimates from this analysis are consistent with those reported in previous longitudinal studies.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
