abstract = {Previous cross-sectional studies regarding the association
of restless legs syndrome (RLS) with cardiovascular
morbidity are controversial. Our aim was to evaluate
prospectively the relationship of cardiovascular risk
factors and vascular diseases with incident RLS in the
general population. The results are from two prospective
population-based cohort studies: the Dortmund Health Study
(n = 1312, median follow-up of 2.1 years) and the Study
of Health in Pomerania (n = 4308, median follow-up of
5.0 years). RLS status was assessed twice according to the
minimal criteria. Diabetes, hypertension, myocardial
infarction and stroke, as well as currently taken
medications, were assessed as self-reports. Body mass index
and serum total cholesterol were also measured. The
independent risks associated with each outcome were
estimated by multivariable logistic regression models
adjusted for comorbidities and behavioural factors. Obesity
was an independent risk factor of incident RLS in the
Dortmund Health Study, and higher body mass index was an
independent risk factor in both studies. Diabetes,
hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia were independent
predictors of incident RLS in the Study of Health in
Pomerania. The vascular comorbidity index, defined by the
number of concurrent cardiovascular risk factors and
vascular diseases, showed a positive association with
incident RLS in both studies. RLS at baseline was not a
significant predictor of any subsequent cardiovascular risk
factors and/or vascular diseases in any of the studies.
Cardiovascular risk factors and diseases predict the
subsequent development of RLS in the general population. The
presence of RLS is not a significant risk factor of
cardiovascular morbidity.},
