This study aimed to investigate the eating attitudes in patients with migraine.
Fifty-nine patients (mean age: 32.54±8.47 years) diagnosed with migraine according to the International Classification of Headache Disorder, 2004, and 47 age-, gender- and education-matched healthy controls (mean age: 31.85±7.14 years) were enrolled for this study. Sociodemographic data were recorded, and the body mass index was calculated as kilograms per meter squared. Data regarding the duration of illness and attack, frequency of migraine attacks, and the presence of aura were recorded. Migraine severity was assessed by Migraine Disability Assessment Score (MIDAS). Eating Attitudes Test (EAT), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Beck Anxiety Inventory were applied to all participants.
The patients with migraine had significantly higher EAT scores, levels of anxiety, and depression than controls (p<.01). Furthermore, 11.9% of patients with migraine had an EAT score of 30 or higher, which is suggestive of a disordered eating attitude, whereas this rate was 2.1% in healthy controls (p<.05). The scores of EAT and BDI had positive correlation with the scores of MIDAS in patients with migraine (r=.298, p<.05; r=.332, p=.01, respectively).
In our study, disordered eating attitudes and the levels of anxiety and depression were high in patients with migraine than controls. Our study is important to demonstrate the connection between migraine and disordered eating attitudes.
本研究旨在调查偏头痛患者的饮食态度。
根据《国际头痛疾病分类(2004版)》诊断为偏头痛的59例患者(平均年龄:32.54±8.47岁)和47例年龄、性别及教育程度相匹配的健康对照者(平均年龄:31.85±7.14岁)纳入本研究。记录社会人口学数据,并计算体重指数(千克/平方米)。记录疾病和发作持续时间、偏头痛发作频率及有无先兆。采用偏头痛残疾评估量表(MIDAS)评估偏头痛严重程度。对所有参与者应用饮食态度测试(EAT)、贝克抑郁量表(BDI)和贝克焦虑量表。
偏头痛患者的EAT评分、焦虑水平和抑郁水平显著高于对照组(p<0.01)。此外,11.9%的偏头痛患者EAT评分为30或更高,提示饮食态度紊乱,而健康对照组的这一比例为2.1%(p<0.05)。偏头痛患者的EAT和BDI评分与MIDAS评分呈正相关(r=0.298,p<0.05;r=0.332,p=0.01)。
在我们的研究中,偏头痛患者的饮食态度紊乱以及焦虑和抑郁水平高于对照组。我们的研究对于证明偏头痛与饮食态度紊乱之间的联系具有重要意义。
