| Core Tip |
This study identifies a high prevalence (42.9%) of restless legs syndrome (RLS) among middle-aged and elderly men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), an area that remains relatively underexplored in urology. A significant association was observed between RLS and greater LUTS severity, particularly obstructive symptoms and nocturia. Despite comparable global sleep quality scores, patients with RLS demonstrated greater functional sleep impairment, reflected by increased sleep medication use and daytime dysfunction. These findings reveal a clinically meaningful interaction between LUTS and RLS, underscoring the importance of routine RLS screening in men with LUTS to enable more comprehensive, multidisciplinary management strategies.to enable more comprehensive and outcome-oriented management. |
