Key clinical point: Patients with migraine experienced considerable neck pain–related disability, with the effect being more prominent among patients with chronic vs episodic migraine.
Major findings: Patients with migraine reported a mean Neck Disability Index (NDI) score of 16.2, indicative of moderate disability. The NDI scores were 12.1 points higher among patients with migraine vs control individuals without headache (P < .001) and 5.5 points higher among patients with chronic vs episodic migraine (P < .001).
Study details: Findings are from a meta-analysis of 33 observational studies including patients with migraine, patients with tension-type headache, and healthy individuals without headache.
Disclosure: The study did not receive any funding. Four authors declared receiving personal fees or honoraria for consultation from or having other ties with various sources; others declared no conflicts of interest.
