Article Synopsis
- * Women are at a significantly higher risk for IDNA, showing younger ages both at diagnosis and onset of RLS symptoms compared to those without iron deficiency.
- * IDNA RLS patients experience greater severity in tiredness and longer durations of RLS compared to those with iron deficiency anemia (IDA), highlighting the need for regular iron screening even in patients with normal blood counts.
Background: The clinical spectrum of restless legs syndrome (RLS) has not been described in a Chinese population. We aim to evaluate the detailed clinical profile in a cohort of unselected RLS patients in China.
Methods: We enrolled RLS patients continuously according to the diagnostic criteria.
Background: The prevalence of Restless legs syndrome (RLS) in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients is higher than that in the general population. However, the associations of RLS within the ESRD population are inconsistent and RLS is usually neglected in dialysis centers, although it impairs the life quality among ESRD patients. We aim to investigate the prevalence of RLS in patients with ESRD undergoing maintenance hemodialysis and evaluate the risk factors of developing RLS and the effect of RLS on quality of life among ESRD patients.
