Abstract:Background and objectives
The exact etiology of migraine is unknown; however, it is likely a mixture of genetic and non-genetic factors including lifestyle variables like smoking and diet. This study aims to assess the causal effect of modifiable risk factors on the risk of migraine using two-sample Mendelian randomization.
Materials and methods
The study used publicly available genome-wide significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The study evaluated a diverse smokin… Show more
