Abstract
BACKGROUND The burden and disability associated with headaches are conceptualized and measured differently at patients' and populations' levels. At the patients' level, through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs); at population level, through disability weights (DW) and years lived with a disability (YLDs) developed by the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD). DW are 0-1 coefficients that address health loss and have been defined through lay descriptions. With this literature review, we aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of disability in headache disorders, and to present a coefficient referring to patients' disability which might inform future GBD definitions of DW for headache disorders. METHODS We searched SCOPUS and PubMed for papers published between 2015 and 2023 addressing disability in headache disorders. The selected manuscript included a reference to headache frequency and at least one PROM. A meta-analytic approach was carried out to address relevant differences for the most commonly used PROMs (by headache type, tertiles of medication intake, tertiles of females' percentage in the sample, and age). We developed a 0-1 coefficient based on the MIDAS, on the HIT-6, and on MIDAS + HIT-6 which was intended to promote future DW iterations by the GBD consortium. RESULTS A total of 366 studies, 596 sub-samples, and more than 133,000 single patients were available, mostly referred to cases with migraine. Almost all PROMs showed the ability to differentiate disability severity across conditions and tertiles of medication intake. The indexes we developed can be used to inform future iterations of DW, in particular considering their ability to differentiate across age and tertiles of medication intake. CONCLUSIONS Our review provides reference values for the most commonly used PROMS and a data-driven coefficient whose main added value is its ability to differentiate across tertiles of age and medication intake which underlie on one side the increased burden due to aging (it is likely connected to the increased impact of common comorbidities), and by the other side the increased burden due to medication consumption, which can be considered as a proxy for headache severity. Both elements should be considered when describing disability of headache disorders at population levels.

Prevalence of headaches and their relationship with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) - Systematic review and meta-analysis. Sleep Med Rev 2024; 73:101889.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep disorders; however, there are inconsistent results about the connection and occurrence of primary and secondary headaches in OSA. Therefore, the primary objectives were to estimate the prevalence and potential relationship between all types of headaches and OSA. A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Studies were searched in PubMed, Embase, and Web of science up to July 2023. The Joanna Briggs Institute tool assessed the risk of bias. 1845 articles were identified, and 23 studies describing 15,402 patients were included. Pooled prevalence of all headaches in OSA was 33% (95% CI: 0.25-0.41), 33% for morning headaches (95% CI: 0.24-0.45), 25% for sleep apnea headaches (95% CI: 0.18-0.34), 19% for tension-type headache (95% CI: 0.15-0.23), and 16% for migraine (95% CI: 0.09-0.26). Relative risk for the occurrence of headache in OSA patients compared to the non-OSA people was 1.43 (95% CI: 0.92-2.25). OSA females and males had morning headaches with similar frequency. The prevalence of headaches in OSA was moderate. OSA did not increase the risk of headache. There is a need to conduct further studies focused on bidirectional connections between sleep disorders and headaches.
