Migraine and Hemorrhagic Stroke

We know that migraine, above all in its variation with aura, is associated with negative cardiovascular effects and with an increase in ischemic stroke. It is not clear, instead, the relation existing between this disease and hemorrhagic stroke, so, using data from WHI (Women's Health Study), this relation has been examined. Out of about 28,000 women over 45 years of age and with no history of stroke, 5130 subjects (18%) with a history of migraine have been identified: out of these, 3612 have referred to suffer still from migraine, with a prevalence of about 40% for migraine with aura.
