Abstract

Aim: The available data on the activity of paraoxonase-1 (PON1) in patients suffering from migraine without aura (MWoA) is scarce. The present study was conducted to fulfill the objective of investigating the probability of an association between PON1 phenotype distribution and headache duration in patients suffering from MWoA.
