Serum lipid profile in migraine and its association with clinical characteristics.

Due to accompanying dyslipidemia, migraine might be considered a risk factor for vascular events regardless of its clinical characteristics. Notwithstanding, elevated HDL-c levels may play a protective role for the vascular events. This dilemma needs to be further explored in future trials to reveal potential biological mechanisms of lipids in migraine patients and to find the optimal therapeutic approach to dyslipidemia.
