ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
While growing evidence suggests a relationship between migraine and cardiovascular disease, the genetic evidence for a causal relationship between migraine and cardiovascular disease is still scarce. Investigating the causal association between migraine and cardiovascular disease is vital.METHODS:
We carried out a bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) study including discovery samples and replication samples using publicly available genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary datasets and stringent screening instrumental variables. Four different MR techniques-Inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR âEgger, weighted median, and weighted mode-as well as various sensitivity analyses-Cochran's Q, IVW radial, leave-one-out (LOO), and MR-PRESSO-were utilized to investigate the causal relationship between cardiovascular disease and migraine.RESULTS:
The protective causal effects of genetically predicted migraine on coronary artery disease (OR, 0.881; 95% CI 0.790-0.982; p = 0.023) and ischemic stroke (OR, 0.912; 95% CI 0.854-0.974; p = 0.006) were detected in forward MR analysis but not in any other cardiovascular disease. Consistently, we also discovered protective causal effects of coronary atherosclerosis (OR, 0.865; 95% CI 0.797-0.940; p = 0.001) and myocardial infarction (OR, 0.798; 95% CI 0.668-0.952; p = 0.012) on migraine in reverse MR analysis.CONCLUSION:
We found a potential protective effect of migraine on coronary artery disease and ischemic stroke and a potential protective effect of coronary atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction on migraine. We emphasised epidemiological and genetic differences and the need for long-term safety monitoring of migraine medications and future research to improve cardiovascular outcomes in migraine patients.Palabras clave
