  1. C: Controls, SM: Sleep-related migraine attack subgroup and NSM: non-sleep-related migraine recorded in an interictal phase. PPT: pressure pain threshold, HPT: Heat pain threshold, CPT: cold pain threshold. avg: Regional averages from either 1splenius, trapezius, temporalis, and index finger or 2forehead and palm. HPT and CPT are expressed as differences from the 32°C baseline.
  2. Mann–Whitney U-test: 3NSM ≠ SM (p < 0.05). 4NSM or SM ≠ C (p < 0.05). 5NSM ≠ C (p <0.01), 6NSM or SM ≠ C (p = 0.05). One control and two NSM subjects were excluded from the PLM analysis and one SM from arousal analysis because of loosened electrodes. Significant differences are emphasized with bold types.
