Although retrospective, this study presents probably the strongest evidence identifying and describing the relationship between morning headache and obstructive sleep apnea. Headache was characterized appropriately according to standard International Headache Society diagnostic criteria, and sleep and sleep-related breathing were assessed through full, multi-channel, nocturnal polysomnography. Morning headache was associated with obstructive sleep apnea and remitted with successful treatment of apnea. DOI: 10.1001/archinte.159.15.1765
