Restless legs syndrome: changes of induced electroencephalographic beta oscillations-an ERD/ERS study.

Study Objectives: Primary or idiopathic restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder of unknown neurophysiologic origin.

Setting And Patients: Ten patients with RLS and 10 healthy control subjects were investigated. Postmovement beta oscillations (event-related synchronization, ERS) induced by movement of the right index finger were measured by electroencephalography and analyzed.
