The interictal transcriptomic map of migraine without aura

Table 1 Demographic and Clinical Characteristics in Control vs. Migraine Groups

Characteristic	Control (n = 30)	Migraine (n = 22)	Test statistic	p-value
Sex (M/F)	14/16	5/17	χ² = 2.1895	0.139
Age (S1) [years]	26.4 ± 4.02 (21–37)	26.8 ± 5.13 (20–37)	U = 324	0.92
Age (S2) [years]	26.6 ± 3.99 (21–37)	26.9 ± 5.17 (20–38)	U = 319	0.847
MIDAS A	not applicable	11.71 ± 5.83 (2–21)	not applicable	not applicable
MIDAS B	not applicable	5.57 ± 1.60 (2–9)	not applicable	not applicable
Duration of MO onset [years]	not applicable	12.42 ± 6.31 (2.55–28.23)	not applicable	not applicable

Data for continuous variables (age, MIDAS, duration of migraine onset) are presented as mean ± SD (range). Sex distribution was compared using a chi-square test between MO and controls, and age was compared using a Mann–Whitney U test at both scan time points (S1, S2). MIDAS (A, B) and duration of MO onset were not tested against controls as these were not recorded in the control group. Abbreviations: SD – Standard Deviation, U – Mann–Whitney U test statistic, χ² – Chi-squared statistic, S1 – Time Point 1, S2 – Time Point 2, MIDAS – Migraine Disability Assessment, MO – Migraine without Aura
