Abstract
Data from a cross-sectional study revealed a higher prevalence of chronic headache as well as a very low utilization of adequate medical care in first-generation Turkish immigrants in Germany1. Depending on the study the prevalence of migraine in Germany in women is reported between 15% and 23% and in men between 4% und 11%2. Research shows a high correlation between migraine and psychiatric diseases. Especially the prevalence of depression (OR 2.2) is significantly higher3. A proper treatment of mental disorders is vital for a successful outcome of migraine therapies.
