Abstract

Amaç: Alerjik rinit (AR) tanılı çocuklarda huzursuz bacak sendromu (HBS) sıklığının değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma vaka kontrol tipindedir. Olgu grubunun yaş, cinsiyet, boy, kilo, Vücut Kitle İndeksi (VKİ), alerjik rinit semptom skoru, alerjik rinit şiddeti, alerji testleri, total IgE, eozinofil değerleri incelendi. Kontrol grubunda da cinsiyet, yaş, boy, kilo ve VKİ incelendi. Her iki gruptaki hastalar, pediatrik yaş grubu için revize edilmiş en son tanı kriterlerini ve şiddet puanlamasını içeren Uluslararası Huzursuz Bacak Sendromu Çalışma Grubu anketi kullanılarak sorgulandı. Hastaların nörolojik muayeneleri, anket uygulanması ve huzursuz bacak sendromu şiddet skorlaması çocuk nöroloğu tarafından gerçekleştirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışmada 115 AR olgusu ve 115 kontrol grubu olmak üzere toplam 230 çocuğun verileri değerlendirildi. Alerjik rinitli çocuklarda huzursuz bacak sendromu sıklığı kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı olarak yüksekti (sırasıyla %15,7 ve %5,2; p=0,010). HBS hastalarının klinik şiddeti hem vaka hem de kontrol gruplarında çoğunlukla orta düzeydeydi [sırasıyla %44,4 (n=8) ve %50 (n=3).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre; alerjik rinitli hastalarda kontrol grubuna göre huzursuz bacak sendromu daha sık gözlendi.

Evaluation of restless legs syndrome in children with allergic rhinitis

Abstract

Aim: It was aimed to evaluate the frequency of restless legs syndrome (RLS) in children with a diagnosis of allergic rhinitis (AR).
Material and Method: The study is case-control type. Age, gender, height, weight, Body Mass Index (BMI), allergic rhinitis symptom score, allergic rhinitis severity, allergy tests, total IgE, eosinophil values of the case group were examined. Gender, age, height, weight and BMI were also calculated in the control group. Patients in both groups were questioned using the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group's (IRLSSG) questionnaire containing the latest diagnostic criteria and severity scoring revised for the pediatric age group. Neurological examination, questionnaire and RLS severity scoring results of the patients were performed by a pediatric neurologist.
Results: In the study, the data of a total of 230 children, 115 AR cases and 115 control groups, were evaluated. The frequency of restless legs syndrome in children with allergic rhinitis was significantly higher than in the control group (15.7% and 5.2%, respectively; p=0.010). The clinical severity of RLS patients was mostly moderate in both the case and control groups [44.4% (n=8) and 50% (n=3), respectively].
Conclusion: According to the results of our study; restless legs syndrome was observed more frequently in patients with allergic rhinitis compared to the control group.
