Top-100 Cited Articles on Headache Disorders: a Bibliometric analysis

Headache is one of the most common disorders of the nervous system, and it has several subtypes: primary headache such as tension-type headache (TTH), migraine, and cluster headache; secondary headache; and other headaches [1]. Headache has a high prevalence, with worldwide epidemiology studies having found the global prevalence rates of current headache, migraine, and TTH to be 47%, 10%, and 38%, respectively, with corresponding lifetime prevalence rates of 66%, 14%, and 46% [2]. Headache disorders are highly burdensome at both the individual and societal levels, with a substantial penalty in lost production [3], and hence they are important targets for public health interventions.
