The Frequency of Restless Legs Syndrome and Its Relationship with the Level of Addiction in Smokers

Öz:

Objective: In this study; it was aimed to determine the frequency of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) in smokers and to investigate the relationship with the level of addiction. Methods: This prospective study was designed as a descriptive and single-centered study. Following the ethics committee’s approval, the study was conducted with the smokers who applied to a tertiary hospital for any reason between 01/03/2017 and 01/07/2017. The Restless legs syndrome diagnosis form consisting of the International Restless Leg Syndrome Study Group (IRLSSG) consensus criteria was applied to all cases. Those who had all five criteria were diagnosed with RLS. The Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) was applied to evaluate the nicotine addiction of the participants. Significance was accepted at the level of p<0.05. Results: Most of the 3,011 people included in the study were male (52.3%; n=1.579). According to the FTND, 68.4% (n=2.059) of the participants had medium and high dependence levels. RLS was detected in 9.8% (n=296) of all participants. While the presence of RLS was 6.9% (n=66) in the group with a low level of dependence, it was found to be 11.2% (n=230) in the group with a mediumhigh level of dependence and this difference was found statistically significant (p=0.02). Conclusion: In this study, the rate of RLS was found to be higher in smokers than the general population, and it was found that the incidence of RLS increased as the level of addiction increased.

Sigara İçen Bireylerde Huzursuz Bacaklar Sendromu Sıklığı ve Bağımlılık Düzeyi ile İlişkisi

Öz:

Amaç: Bu çalışmada; sigara içenlerde huzursuz bacaklar sendromu (HBS) görülme sıklığının belirlenmesi ve bağımlılık derecesi ile ilişkisinin araştırılması amaçlandı. Yöntemler: Bu prospektif çalışma, tanımlayıcı ve tek merkezli bir çalışma olarak tasarlandı. Çalışma etik kurul onayı alındıktan sonra; 01/03/2017 ile 01/07/2017 tarihleri arasında herhangi bir nedenle üçüncü basamak bir hastaneye başvuran sigara içicileri ile yapıldı. Tüm olgulara Uluslararası Huzursuz Bacaklar Sendromu Çalışma Grubu (IRLSSG) tarafından geliştirilen huzursuz bacaklar tanı formu uygulandı. Beş kriterin tamamına sahip olanlara HBS tanısı konuldu. Katılımcıların nikotin bağımlıklarını değerlendirmek için Fagerström Nikotin Bağımlılık Testi (FNBT) uygulandı. Anlamlılık p<0,05 düzeyinde kabul edildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen 3011 kişinin çoğu erkek (%52,3; n=1,579) idi. FNBT’ye göre katılımcıların %68,4’ü (n=2,059) orta ve yüksek derecede bağımlı idi. Toplamda tüm katılımcıların %9,8’inde (n=296) HBS saptandı. Düşük derecede bağımlılığı olan grupta HBS varlığı %6,9 (n=66) iken orta-yüksek derecede bağımlılığı olan grupta %11,2 (n=230) bulundu ve aradaki bu farklılık istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p=0,02). Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, sigara içenlerde HBS görülme oranı genel popülasyona göre yüksek bulunmuş olup bağımlılık düzeyi arttıkça HBS görülme sıklığının arttığı saptandı.
