  • Migraines are causally associated with cognitive impairment according to Mendelian randomization analysis.
  • Three strategies were used: polygenic risk score (PRS) method, one-sample MR, and two-sample MR.
  • PRS constructed by 18 SNPs showed a causal link (β = -2.31, 95% CI: -4.56 to -0.06).
  • One-sample MR confirmed the association (IVW estimator β = 2.90; 95% CI: 0.90-4.89).
  • Two-sample MR validated the causal relationship (IVW estimator β = 2.43; 95% CI: 1.08-3.78).
  • Migraine is identified as a polygenic disorder linked to cognitive impairment.
