  "summary": "A recent study has found a strong connection between migraine and sleep issues, with sleep problems being significantly more common among people with migraine than those without headaches. The Polish research, involving over 5,300 adults, revealed that 64.1% of migraine sufferers had sleep problems, compared to 38.7% of those without headaches. Poor sleep quality was linked to more frequent attacks, greater disability, higher stress and anxiety levels, and lower life satisfaction for those with migraine. The research suggests that sleep plays a fundamental role in the pathophysiology of migraine, and improving sleep hygiene should be a standard part of patient care.",
