A twin study of depression and migraine: evidence for a shared genetic vulnerability.

Headache - 1 Jan 2000

Schur Ellen A, Noonan Carolyn, Buchwald Dedra, Goldberg Jack, Afari Niloofar

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine if shared genetic or environmental vulnerabilities could underlie depression and migraine. BACKGROUND: Depression and migraine headaches frequently coexist and their comorbidity may be due to shared etiologies. METHODS: Female twins in the University of Washington Twin Registry responded to a mailed survey regarding their health history. Depression and migraine were determined by...
