Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is characterized by an uncomfortable urge to move the legs, worsened in the evening, occurring at rest, and relieved temporarily by movement.

Although many studies have indicated a significant association between migraine and restless legs syndrome (RLS), few long-term longitudinal studies have examined RLS in patients with migraine. We conducted a single-center, 12-year, longitudinal study of migraine patients and assessed whether RLS was present in 2010, 2017, or 2022 to evaluate its associations with clinical factors. Headache-related disability was assessed using the Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS).

Study Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of dopamine agonists (DA) and Clonazepam on Large Muscle Group Movements during sleep (LMM), a distinct motor phenomenon, in Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 51 drug-free adult patients with RLS, divided into three groups: 33 received a DA (pramipexole or ropinirole), 15 received clonazepam, and 18 received a placebo. Each patient underwent two consecutive nocturnal polysomnographic (PSG) recordings: one baseline and one following treatment administration.
