[The state of the oropharyngeal microbiome in patients with migraine].

In our work, the microbiota of the oropharynx in patients with migraine was studied for the first time using a new MSMM method. Disturbance of the oropharyngeal microbiome compared to the norm was detected in 100% of people with migraine. The changes characteristic of most patients included a significant decrease in the content of normal flora, an increase in the concentration of conditionally pathogenic microorganisms and the appearance of pathogenic microflora characteristic of chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract, which may indicate their role in the pathogenesis of migraine.
