“…There is also thought to be an association with sleep disorders in earlier childhood and later presentation of migraines or headaches. 27 Although most studies have not focused on a specific AYA population, those that have also demonstrated an interaction or association between headaches and sleep. [28][29][30] The relationship between sleep and pain for young people with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and other rheumatological conditions has more recently been explored.…”

Sleep has an important role in maintaining health and wellbeing; this relationship is becoming increasingly recognised for adolescents and young adults. Many physicians will encounter young people who present with complaints or conditions that have some relation to poor sleep. This review article looks at why sleep matters within this population group, how it can impact on longer term health consequences and discusses some tools to help enable the clinician to evaluate and address sleep within clinical practice.

“…It is known as sleep deprivation, or, on the contrary, a prolonged sleep, can favor the onset of headache, in particular migraine attack [41]. On the other hand, in many cases, and especially in children, sleep, spontaneous or induced by hypnotics, constitutes the decisive factor for resolution of a migraine attack [42].…”

Headache is one of the most common neurological symptom reported in childhood and adolescence, leading to high levels of school absences and being associated with several comorbid conditions, particularly in neurological, psychiatric and cardiovascular systems. Neurological and psychiatric disorders, that are associated with migraine, are mainly depression, anxiety disorders, epilepsy and sleep disorders, ADHD and Tourette syndrome. It also has been shown an association with atopic disease and cardiovascular disease, especially ischemic stroke and patent foramen ovale (PFO).

“…In a parallel way, Dyb et al [24] revealed higher incidence of comorbid mood and anxiety disorders (major depressive disorder, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and specific phobias) in children with migraine. At the same time, Bellini et al [7] as well as Arruda and Bigal [25] declared significantly higher association of behavioral and internalization symptoms among children and adolescents with migraine especially in those with high headache frequencies.…”

“…There is a bidirectional relationship between childhood migraine and sleep disturbances possibly due to sharing the same neuropeptides abnormalities including serotonin, dopamine, and/or melatonin [6]. Migraine sufferers often have trouble falling asleep, insufficient sleep, bedwetting, somnophobia, parasomnias, and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) which negatively influence the child's health and intellectual performance [7,8].…”

Background: Migraine is a primary headache that commonly starts in childhood and adolescent's periods with great negative impacts on the educational and psychosocial performances of its sufferers. The objectives of this work were to study the existence and types of sleep and psychiatric abnormalities in school-age children with migraine (SCM). Methods: The study was conducted on 40 SCM and 20 age-and sex-matched healthy control subjects (HCS) submitted to history taking, neurological examination, Pediatric Migraine Disability Assessment (PedMIDAS) questionnaire, Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Epworth Sleepiness Scale for Children and Adolescents (ESS-CHAD), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and one-night polysomnography (PSG). Results: The study showed a high incidence of psychiatric and sleep abnormalities in SCM. The most common psychiatric disorders were anxious depressed symptoms, withdrawal depressed symptoms, social problem, somatic complaints, and attention problems. At the same time, SCM experienced decreased sleep quality, excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), and PSG abnormalities in the form of decreased total sleep time (TST) and sleep efficiency (SE) in addition to increased sleep latency, wake after sleep onset (WASO), arousal index (AI), and REM sleep without atonia index. Conclusion: Sleep and psychiatric abnormalities are common underdiagnosed pediatric migraine comorbidities greatly reducing headache control and school performance in this very important period of psychosocial development.
