- A study on Jordanian medical students found a prevalence of restless legs syndrome (RLS) at 11.2%, with significant symptoms worsened by stress and exams.
- Out of 215 participants, 24 qualified for the RLS diagnosis; many reported that their symptoms affected sleep quality and were sometimes relieved by physical activity.
- The study concluded that RLS is relatively common among these students and emphasized the need for greater awareness and better management to mitigate its negative effects on health and academic performance.
