NHANES 1999–2004: Social Determinants of Health and Self-Reported Migraine

Survey data from 11,009 adults aged 20+ from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999–2004. The dataset supports analysis of the combined association of multiple social determinants of health with self-reported severe headache or migraine.

Use Cases

• Training models to predict migraine risk based on social determinants of health indicators mentioned in the description.
• Analyzing the mixture effect of combined social determinants like housing status and income-to-poverty ratio on health outcomes.
• Conducting weighted regression analysis on survey data to explore associations between socioeconomic factors and self-reported conditions.

Strengths

• Includes data from 11,009 adult participants, providing a substantial sample size.
• Covers a defined time period (1999–2004) from the well-established NHANES survey.
• Analysis includes specific statistical results, such as an odds ratio of 2.26 for the highest vs. lowest quartile of social determinant burden.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count for the underlying analysis dataset is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset file is a 86.1 KB DOCX, indicating it is likely supplementary material (e.g., a paper) rather than a primary data file.
