Smartphone overuse in patients with migraine is related to poor sleep quality and daytime sleepiness, resulting in diminished quality of life, a new study found. The single-center, cross-sectional comparative study used the migraine disability assessment (MIDAS) questionnaire to evaluate the disability status, and Mobile Phone Problematic Use Scale (MPPUS) was used to evaluate smartphone use frequency. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), 24-h Migraine Quality of Life Questionnaire (24-h MQoLQ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) were used to evaluate the pain intensity, quality of life, sleep quality, and daytime sleepiness. Researchers found:
- The study included 123 patients.
- There was a significant difference between the groups in terms of pain intensity, frequency, and duration.
- There was a negative correlation between MPPUS and PQSI, a strong positive correlation between MPPUS and ESS, and a negative correlation between MPPUS and 24-h MQoLQ.
