“…Several studies have showed a relationship between anxiety, depression, and migraine severity, especially in pediatric age . These psychological symptoms are often considered as factors of migraine chronification but, on the other hand, may also represent a psychological reaction to recurrent and severe migraine attacks . The nature of this relationship remains unclear .…”

“…While there is a clear neurophysiological/biological substrate of pain, the exact nature of the relationship between pain and psychological factors remains unclear . In pediatric population, headache phenotype (severity and clinical characteristics) can be influenced by psychological symptoms, such as anxiety and depression, and stressful life events have been frequently implicated in the onset, exacerbation, and maintenance of headache . On the other hand, headache can affect all aspects of children's lives, leading to negative effect states (eg, anxiety, depression, anger) and increased psychosocial problems …”

“…Epidemiologic studies have shown that exposure to childhood abuse is associated with a myriad of health outcomes including asthma, early age at menarche, sleep disturbances, chronic systemic inflammation, substance abuse, mood and anxiety disorders, suicidal behaviors, adulthood revictimization, preterm delivery, and premature mortality . There is also a growing body of literature documenting associations of childhood abuse with migraine headaches . Moreover, epidemiologic studies have shown that migraine, often a debilitating neurologic disorder, is associated with an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes including preeclampsia, placental abruption, and preterm delivery .…”

Background Childhood abuse and intimate partner violence have each been associated with migraine headaches in previous studies, but these associations have not been explored among pregnant women. Objective To examine the independent and joint associations of childhood abuse and intimate partner violence with migraine among pregnant women. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among a cohort of 2,970 pregnant women attending prenatal clinics in Lima, Peru. History of childhood abuse (i.e., physical or sexual abuse) was assessed using the Childhood Physical and Sexual Abuse Questionnaire. Intimate partner violence (IPV) was assessed using the World Health Organization questionnaire. Migraine classification (including migraine and probable migraine) was based on International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD)-III beta criteria. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to estimate odd ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Results The prevalence of any migraine was 33.5% while approximately 70% of participants reported a history of childhood abuse and 36.7% a history of IPV. Women with a history of any childhood abuse had a 38% increased odds of any migraine compared to women with no history of childhood abuse (OR=1.38; 95% CI 1.15-1.64). The odds of migraine increased with increasing numbers of experienced childhood abuse events (Ptrend <0.001). Additionally, after adjusting for confounders women with a history of IPV had a 43% increased odds of any migraine as compared to women without intimate partner violence (OR=1.43; 95%CI 1.02-2.02). Women with a joint positive history of childhood abuse and IPV as compared with the reference group, had a 88% increased odds of migraine (aOR=1.88, 95%CI: 1.51-2.35). Conclusion Childhood abuse and IPV are associated with increased odds of migraine in pregnant women. Our findings highlight the importance of screening for abuse among pregnant migraineurs to help guide treatment strategies.

“…15 Also in some researches during the investigations among patients with migraine headache and people with tension headaches and comparing it with healthy individuals, the scale of Somatoform dissociation in patients with migraine and tension headache has been significant and they had a high average. 16 Study done in the field of other disorders, such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, showed Strong relationship with Somatoform dissociation. 17 These reports show increase in psychosomatic analysis of factors among patients with migraine and other symptoms associated with psychiatric disorders.…”

The prevalence of migraine in the world is about 15 and 7% among women and men, respectively. The purpose of this study was comparison of somatoform dissociation, fatigue severity and pain behavior in patients with migraine headache and its relationship with coping strategies. This descriptive analytical study has been done on 120 patients with migraine headache and 120 healthy subjects were selected randomly. Data collected by somatoform dissociation questionnaire (SDQ-20), fatigue severity scale, pain behavior scale and coping strategies scale. For data analysis we used SPSS.19. The means of the somatoform dissociation, pain behavior scale, help searching subscale and pain compliant in migraine and healthy subjects were statistically significant. There was not significant difference in avoidance subscales between the two groups. Comparison of fatigue severity in patients with migraine and control group was meaningful. There was significant positive correlation between all four scales and coping strategies. It seems that these symptoms can play an important role in this disease; thus, their careful evaluation in the treatment of migraine headache is essential.
