“…Migraine was twice as high in a group of 78 patients with unilateral or bilateral MD (based on the American Academy of Otolaryngology criteria), than in an ageand sex-matched control group (56% vs. 25%, p<0.001) [ 51 ]. Migraine leads to a greater susceptibility of developing MD, as suggested by a study in which MD patients had an earlier onset of symptoms and a greater frequency of bilateral hearing loss when they also had migraine [ 15 ].…”

Both migraine and vertigo are common in the general population with lifetime prevalences of about 16% for migraine and 7% for vertigo. Therefore, a concurrence of the two conditions can be expected in about 1.1% percent of the general population by chance alone. However, recent epidemiological evidence suggests that the actual comorbidity is higher, namely 3.2 %. This can be explained by the fact that several dizziness and vertigo syndromes occur more frequently in migraineurs than in controls including benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, Meniere's disease, motion sickness, cerebellar disorders and anxiety syndromes which may present with dizziness. In addition, there is increasing recognition of a syndrome called vestibular migraine (VM), which is vertigo directly caused by migraine. VM affects more than 1% of the general population, about 10% of patients in dizziness clinics and at least 9% of patients in migraine clinics.Clinically, VM presents with attacks of spontaneous or positional vertigo lasting seconds to days. Migrainous accompaniments such as headache, phonophobia, photophobia or auras are common but not mandatory. Cochlear symptoms may be associated but are mostly mild and non-progressive. During acute attacks one may find central spontaneous or positional nystagmus and, less commonly, unilateral vestibular hypofunction. In the symptom-free interval, vestibular testing adds little to the diagnosis as findings are mostly minor and non-specific. In the absence of controlled studies, treatment of VM is adopted from the migraine sphere comprising avoidance of triggers, stress management as well as pharmacotherapy for acute attacks and prophylaxis.

“…A link has been demonstrated between migraine and MD, 9,10 and it has even been suggested that MD develops as a complication of migraine-associated symptoms. 11 The overrepresentation of migraine among patients with MD might also be explained by migraine-associated vertigo, mimicking MD. 12 Anticipation, a phenomenon in which the symptoms of an inheritable disorder become apparent at an earlier age as they are passed on to the next generation, has also been described in MD.…”

“…Finally, it has been reported that patients with Meniere's disease suffered higher prevalence of migraine and Meniere's disease patients with migraine suffered more severe vertigo or hearing loss Fig. 2 Relative risks of co-morbidities among cases of interest and the remaining migraine cases for the study period of 24 months before the index date (blue bars), and for the study period of 12 months after the index date (red bars) (color figure online) (Cha et al 2007). Again, the results from our populationbased study are in conformity with these findings.…”

In this study, we will propose a density estimation based data analysis procedure to investigate the co-morbid associations between migraine and the suspected diseases. The primary objective of this study has aimed to develop a novel analysis procedure that can discover insightful knowledge from large medical databases. The entire analysis procedure consists of two stages. During the first stage, a kernel density estimation algorithm named relaxed variable kernel density estimation (RVKDE) is invoked to identify the samples of interest. Then, in the second stage, a density estimation algorithm based on generalized Gaussian components and named G 2 DE is invoked to provide a summarized description of the distribution. The results obtained by applying the proposed twostaged procedure to analyze co-morbidities of migraine revealed that the proposed procedure could effectively identify a number of clusters of samples with distinctive characteristics. The results further revealed that the distinctive characteristics of the clusters extracted by the proposed procedure were in conformity with the observations reported in recently published articles. Accordingly, it is conceivable that the proposed analysis procedure can be exploited to provide valuable clues of pathogenesis and facilitate development of proper treatment strategies.
