Abstract

Objective:To investigate the sleep characteristics and clinical features of patients with vestibular migraine(VM), and to explore the influencing factors of sleep disorder in VM patients. Methods:A cross-sectional study method was adopted to collect VM patients from Otolaryngology department and neurology department of our hospital from June 2022 to June 2024(divided into sleep disorder group and non-sleep disorder group according to whether there is sleep disorder) as the experimental group, and recruit non-VM volunteers with clinical characteristics matching with the experimental group during the same period as the control group. The clinical data of the subjects were collected, and the sleep quality of the subjects was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI). The influencing factors of sleep disorders in VM patients were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression, and the correlation between sleep disorders and clinical features such as headache, vertigo and hearing in VM patients was analyzed by Spearman correlation coefficient. Results:A total of 530 individuals with VM were analyzed, including 332 with sleep disturbances(62.64%), 198 without sleep issues(37.36%), and 50 in the control group. The overall PSQI score and all its components were significantly higher in the VM group compared with the control group(P<0.05). A positive correlation was observed between PSQI and VAS, DHI-T, DHI-E, DHI-F and DHI-P(r=0.797, P<0.05; r=0.834, P<0.05; r=0.794,…

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a cross-sectional, done in people. Its evidence level is 4 of 5 (Low · observational). Observational designs can show an association but not prove cause. Reported size: 530 participants or records.
