ABSTRACT
Objective · To compare vitamin D levels in the patients with menstrually related migraine and those with non-menstrual migraine.Methods · A total of 100 patients with menstrually related migraine were enrolled as case group, and 100 patients with non-menstrual migraine were matched as control group in Renji Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, from June 2017 to June 2018. The patients' information was collected and serum vitamin D levels were measured. Univariate analysis was performed to analyze the differences between the groups, and Logistic regression model was performed to analyze the relationship between menstrually related migraine and vitamin D levels. Results · Vitamin D levels were lower in case group than those in control group [ (13.48±5.02) ng/mL vs (14.93±4.94) ng/mL, P=0.042]. There were no statistically significant differences in other indexes between the groups (P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the patients with vitamin D less than 10 ng/mL were more likely to have menstrually related migraine than those with vitamin D more than 20 ng/ml (OR=3.656, 95% CI 1.382-9.672, P=0.009). In addition, there were no statistically significant differences in clinical characteristics and vitamin D levels between the patients with migraine occurring in premenstrual period and menstrual period (P>0.05). Conclusion · Low vitamin D levels may be associated with menstrually related migraine, but not with its occurrence in premenstrual or menstrual period.
