Abstract
Adult ADHD is associated with a 3.18 times greater likelihood of meeting diagnostic criteria for restless legs syndrome (RLS).
- The study involved a community-based sample of 1,632 individuals.
- Statistical analysis showed a significant association between adult ADHD and RLS when controlling for factors such as weight.
- After accounting for sleep disturbances, the association between adult ADHD and RLS was no longer statistically significant.
- These findings indicate a potential link between RLS symptoms and adult ADHD that might be influenced by sleep issues.
