Abstract

While the Global Burden of Disease study reports headache disorders as the third-highest cause of disability worldwide, the headache data in this study largely come from adults. This national study in Iran, the first of its type in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, was part of a global schools-based programme within the Global Campaign against Headache contributing data from children (6-11 years) and adolescents (12-17 years).
