Syncope is characterized by the temporary loss of consciousness and is commonly associated with migraine. However, the genetic factors that contribute to this association are not well understood. This study investigated the specific genetic loci that make patients with migraine more susceptible to syncope as well as the genetic factors contributing to syncope and migraine comorbidity in a Han Chinese population in Taiwan.
