Abstract

Recent studies suggested that persons with migraine might be at higher risk of structural brain changes, including cerebral small vessel disease and atrophy. However, findings in the literature are inconsistent, with variations observed in the direction, magnitude, and population characteristics of reported effects, and large-scale population-based evidence remains scarce. Hence, we investigated the association of migraine with structural brain changes in a middle-aged and elderly population.
