| Abstract | Objective This study aims to investigate the association between patients with migraine headaches and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings. Background Migraine is a frequently encountered primary headache disorder with a disproportionate female predominance. Diagnosis is usually based on the patient’s clinical history with neuroimaging reserved for severe or atypical presentations to exclude other pathologies. Migraine patients often experience a profound impact on their quality of life. Methods A retrospective study was conducted at King Abdullah University Hospital, Jordan, involving patients with a clinical diagnosis of migraine who had undergone MRI brain imaging between January 2021 to March 2023. Descriptive data were documented, with two independent neuro-radiologists interpreting MRI findings. Results Our study included 670 migraine patients (510 females; mean age, 40.3 years). White matter hyperintensity lesions were found in 309 patients (46.1%), significantly affecting older age groups with a mean age of 46.8 years (p > 0.001). Additionally, gender played a role, with a higher prevalence of these lesions in female migraine patients, accounting for 79.6% (p = 0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis proved age to be an independent risk factor for the presence of white matter hyperintensity lesions (OR: 1.0688, 95% CI: 1.0546–1.0831, p > 0.001). Conclusion White matter hyperintensity lesions were seen in the MRI imaging of a subset of migraine patients. Patients with these lesions tend to be older and of female gender. However, the clinical significance of these findings remains unclear. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
