Why the study?
Does migraine with aura alter peripheral endothelial function and arterial stiffness in women compared to healthy controls?
Does migraine with aura alter peripheral endothelial function and arterial stiffness in women compared to healthy controls?
Women with migraine with aura have greater arterial stiffness but unimpaired peripheral endothelial function, which may contribute to their increased stroke risk.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May link arterial stiffness to stroke risk in MA; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Liman et al. (2012) studied this question.
