Restless-legs syndrome and insomnia in hemodialysis patients.

CONCLUSIONS: HD patients commonly have RLS and insomnia. Insomnia and diabetes mellitus seem to be major factors underlying RLS in HD patients. Furthermore, depression and RLS seem to be closely related to insomnia in these patients. Treatment of depression, insomnia, and RLS may be beneficial to improve quality of life in HD patients.
