Özet
Background/aim: Periodic limb movements (PLMs) are repetitive and stereotypical movements of the lower extremities that occur during sleep. The purpose of this study was to analyze the leg muscle activity patterns in PLMs seen in restless legs syndrome (RLS) and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).
