Migraine and the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events: A meta-analysis of 16 cohort studies including 1,152,407 subjects

BMJ Open Evidence based | Apr 02, 2018

A moderate to severe degree of heterogeneity was reported for the outcomes. This was partly elucidated through the presence of aura.
