Migraine and restless legs syndrome are associated in adults under age fifty but not in adults over fifty: a population-based study

摘要

BackgroundRecent studies have shown an association between migraine and restless legs syndrome (RLS). However, migraine prevalence peaks from the 20s to 40s whereas RLS prevalence peaks after the 50s. Despite this, reports on how migraine and RLS may be associated by age is limited. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the comorbidity between migraine and RLS according to age.
