“…Estimation of QALY requires measurement of health-related utility. In the study of Ahadi et al [ 38 ] the same prediction problem in all migraineurs, episodic and chronic migraine were proved. They concluded that the preferred MSQ mapping algorithm would be suitable for estimating health-state utilities in trials of patients with migraine that contain MSQ scores but lack utility values.…”

“…Similar results have been published, but the authors use different tools. Ahadi et al [ 38 ] measured the quality of life in migraineurs mainly based on the MSQ, which is a condition-specific measure that also uses a generic preference-based measure (EQ-5D-5L), and afterwards maps an algorithm to estimate health-state utility values. The proposed MSQ mapping algorithm would be suitable for estimating health state utilities in trials of patients with migraine that contain MSQ scores but lack utility values.…”

Background: Migraine leads to moderate to severe disabilities and disrupts family life, interpersonal relationships, and professional life, and is the second leading cause of disability worldwide. Many people with migraine suffer prolonged headaches and frequent migraine attacks, transition to having chronic migraine, and have the highest number of disability-adjusted life-years. The aim of this study is to measure the quality of life in migraineurs based on the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire. Methods: We assessed 100 consecutive patients diagnosed with migraine: 70 with episodic migraine and 30 with chronic migraine. Migraineurs were asked to complete the EQ-5D-5L. The control group (n = 100), matched for sex and age group, was created based on the results of the population norms study for the EQ-5D-5L in the general population of Poland. Results: Patients with migraine had worse HRQoL than the matched general population control group for all three primary endpoints of the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire: dimensions, EQ-5D-5L Index and EQ VAS. Conclusions: Migraine is a disease that disrupts daily function, and as a lifelong disease, plays a role in every aspect of it. Proving a negative impact on many aspects helps to make decisions about treatment, especially in the context of the design and reimbursement of drugs.

“…It is the first such study from the Eastern Mediterranean Region, adding to those from European (8,9), Western Pacific (10) and African Regions (11,12). While there is published evidence of headache-attributed burden among adults in Iran, the data are not population-based (14 –16). Iran is the second-largest country in the Middle East after Saudi Arabia, although much of it is mountainous and uninhabitable.…”

Background While the Global Burden of Disease study reports headache disorders as the third-highest cause of disability worldwide, the headache data in this study largely come from adults. This national study in Iran, the first of its type in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, was part of a global schools-based programme within the Global Campaign against Headache contributing data from children (6–11 years) and adolescents (12–17 years). Methods We followed the generic protocol for the global study. In a cross-sectional survey, self-completed structured questionnaires were administered to pupils within their classes in 121 schools selected from across the country to be representative of its diversities. Headache diagnostic questions were based on ICHD-3 criteria but for the inclusion of undifferentiated headache. Results Of 3,357 potential participants, 3,244 (children 1,308 [40.3%], adolescents 1,936 [59.7%]; males 1,531 [47.2%], females 1,713 [52.8%]) satisfactorily completed the questionnaire. Children and males were therefore somewhat under-represented, with a participating proportion of 96.6%. Gender- and age-adjusted 1-year prevalence of any headache was 65.4%, of migraine 25.2%, of tension-type headache 12.7%, of undifferentiated headache 22.1%, of all headache on ≥15 days/month 4.1%, and of probable medication-overuse headache 1.1%. All headache types except undifferentiated headache were more prevalent among adolescents than children; probable medication-overuse headache increased five-fold between childhood and adolescence. Conclusions Headache disorders are common in children and adolescents in Iran, with undifferentiated headache accounting for over one third of cases. The increasing prevalence of probable medication-overuse headache with age is concerning. These findings are of importance to health and educational policies in Iran.
