  • Coeff, regression coefficient in linear mixed model, showing average difference (number of days) between business as usual (coded as 0) and brief intervention (coded as 1) groups; ICC, intraclass correlation coefficient.

  • *Regression coefficients adjusted for age, gender and co-occurrence of migraine.
