Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Identifying changes in the prevalence, disability, and management patterns of migraine is important for reducing the burden of this disease. However, data on the changes in these variables are scarce. METHODS: We compared data obtained in the 2009 Korean Headache Survey and the 2018 Korean Sleep-Headache Survey. RESULTS: =0.615]. CONCLUSIONS: Migraine prevalence was stable over the 9-year period between the surveys, but disability due to missed activity was greater in 2018 than in 2009 in Korea.
