“…Parental stress is associated with higher frequency and intensity of migraine in school-age children ( Anttila et al, 2004 ; Smirni and Carotenuto, 2021 ). This fact remarks on the need to expand the migraine educational programs to family members ( Esposito et al, 2013 ).…”

IntroductionPrenatal period is the key time in human development. Many prenatal factors are well-known and increase the risk of developing diseases’ after birth. Few studies indicated the link between the prenatal period and the prevalence of migraine in childhood and adolescence so far. We decided to broaden current knowledge and investigate whether the prenatal factors influence the prevalence of migraine in adulthood. The objective of this study is to provide evidence of relationship between in utero environment and risk of migraine.MethodsIn total 266 females (136 in the migraine group, 130 in the control group) and 80 males (35 in the migraine group, 45 in the control group), aged 18–65 participated in the study. The quality of prenatal environment was characterized on the basis of mother’s and father’s education, tobacco smoke exposure, alcohol consumption, and traumatic event during pregnancy, which are considered as prenatal factors and affect on fetal development.ResultsMigraine occurrence in adulthood was significantly associated with maternal tobacco smoking during pregnancy (OR 3.42, 95% CI 1.54–7.61, p = 0.036) and traumatic event during pregnancy (OR 2.27, 95% CI 1.24–4.13, p = 0.020).DiscussionOur study suggests that the fetal programming effect of tobacco smoking exposure and maternal trauma is not limited to prenatal life and is suggested as having a role in adulthood. Our findings support evidence that migraine adulthood can be partly influenced by early life conditions.

“…[7][8][9] Some studies have also linked childhood and adolescent migraine to parental stress. 10,11 Additionally, migraine has been suggested as a risk factor for respiratory conditions like asthma and associated with low income or education levels, increasing the risk of other disorders or symptoms. 12,13 Recent studies have presented findings on the association between migraine and several gastrointestinal (GI) conditions.…”

Purpose Migraine is a neurological disorder affecting pediatric patients of all age groups, with a prevalence ranging from approximately 5% to 15%. It significantly impacts the quality of life in children and adolescents, potentially hampering their learning abilities, school performance, and daily activities. This study investigated the association between migraine and several prevalent gastrointestinal (GI) diseases in pediatric patients. Patients and Methods We analyzed the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service Pediatric Patient Sample (HIRA-PPS) dataset from South Korea. Propensity scores based on patient characteristics (age, sex, and insurance type) were employed through the inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) in binary logistic regression. We included gastroesophageal disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease (PUD), gastritis, dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) as GI diseases. Results A total of 683,347 patients from the HIRA dataset were included in the study. After IPTW adjustment, the prevalence of GI diseases among pediatric patients with migraine remained significantly increased (OR 4.15; 95% CI 4.12–4.18). Migraine patients showed higher prevalence rates for all six individual GI diseases, with GERD (OR 4.11; 95% CI 4.05–4.16) and IBS (OR 3.79; 95% CI 3.74–3.84) showing the highest associations. We also confirmed a progressively increasing association between the presence of diagnosed migraine and GI diseases. Conclusion This study highlights a strong association between pediatric migraine and GI diseases, even after adjusting for patient characteristics. The elevated prevalence of various GI diseases in migraine patients suggests the need for comprehensive approaches to their prevention and treatment.
