Can we now say that commonalities between restless leg syndrome and migraine exist?

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The recent manuscript by Xinglong Yang and colleagues provided the first relatively reliable estimate of restless leg syndrome (RLS) prevalence among migraine sufferers, which was estimated at 19% (95% CI 14–24%). The implications of the association between the two conditions are wide, and call for further action aimed to address common disease mechanism-associated conditions such as sleep-related ones and associated burden.
