A follow-up clinical study was made of 320 patients examined in Autonomic Pathology and Headache Center, Nervous disease clinic, Sechenov Moscow Medical Academy, since 1989 to 1999. The peculiarities of migraine attack course and remission period, psychological characteristics, concomitant diseases and quality of life in men and women were described. In women, migraine attacks were more typical, prolonged and severe, being often stipulated by provoking factors, especially by emotional ones, as well as accompanied by autonomic disturbances, anxiety and depression. Despite a more favorable migraine course, men proved to score lower on quality of life, revealing more maladaptation. Patients with sleep migraine attacks were distinguished by more severe migraine course, multiple disturbances in remission period, higher depression and anxiety levels, as well as lower quality of life. Common serotoninergic mechanisms were suggested to underlie sleep migraine and depression. The leading role of depression in the origin of night migraine attacks is discussed.
