Causal Association Between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Migraine: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Study by Wang YP, Wei HX, Hu YY, Zhang C, Niu YM

“…Furthermore, sensitivity studies were performed using heterogeneity and pleiotropy tests to assess the estimation’s robustness.Results: In general, our findings suggested that the OSA is causally associated with migraine with aura (MA, IVW: OR = 1.147; 95% CI = 1.016– 1.295; P = 0.026), which was confirmed with the MVMR analysis further (OR =  1.184, 95% CI = 1.028– 1.364, P =  0.020). In addition, increased risk of migraine and migraine without aura on OSA occurrence were identified in the reverse analysis, but these results were subsequently negated with MVMR analysis.Conclusion: According to the current findings, there was a preliminary causal effect of OSA on MA among European descendants.Clinical Relevance: These findings suggest a potential causal effect of OSA on migraine and provide new insights to prevent and manage the two disorders.Keywords: obstructive sleep apnea, migraine, Mendelian randomization, causal effect…”
