    Background: Among the comorbidities that accompany multiple sclerosis (MS), restless legs syndrome (RLS) is one of the most common. Anxiety and depression are common psychological comorbidities that impact the quality of life of patients with MS (PwMS), as well as patients with RLS. Objective: To investigate the psychiatric burden of MS and RLS coexistence, we conducted a nationwide, multicenter and cross-sectional survey. Methods: Participants were assessed by using demographic and clinical parameters along with the Hamilton Anxiety and Hamilton Depression Scales (HAM-A and HAM-D). Results: Out of the 1,068 participants, 173 (16.2%) were found to have RLS [RLS(+)] and 895 (83.8%) did not [RLS(-)]. The mean scores for HAM-A and HAM-D were significantly higher among RLS(+) subjects than among RLS(-) subjects (p<0.001 for all variables). Conclusions: According to our data, the presence of RLS in PwMS may increase the occurrence of both anxiety and depression symptoms. Awareness and treatment of RLS in PwMS could possibly reduce the symptoms of psychiatric comorbidities originating from RLS.

    (2017) Kutuk, Meryem Ozlem; Guler, Glen; Toros, Fevziye; Ozge, Aynur; Tasdelen, Bahar; 0000-0002-2918-7871; AAI-9626-2021
    Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the relation between psychiatric disorders, andmigraine or tensiontype headache (TTH), together with severity of depression and anxiety symptoms, in adolescents with headache. Methods: Headache types of 140 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years were investigated by a headache specialist, through facetoface interviews according to the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd edition beta version (ICHD3 beta). Psychiatric disorders of participants were assessed via DSMIV diagnostic criteria. Sociodemographic information form, Depression Scale, and the StateTrait Anxiety Scale for Children were applied to the patients accordingly. Results: Higher rates of psychiatric disorders (82%) were observed in the migraine and tensiontype headache (TTH) groups. The most frequent comorbid psychiatric disorder was anxiety disorder. In patients with TTH, the number of attacks was statistically higher. In patients with migraine, the frequency of throbbing headache was elevated with the co-occurrence of anxiety disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In patients with TTH, the description of worsening of pain with movement was raised with anxiety disorder comorbidity. A weak correlation existed between headache prevalence and headache severity in patients with migraine. Similarly, in the TTH group, a weak association between headache prevalence and depressionanxiety scores were reported. Conclusions: Our findings support the association between migraine or TTH and anxiety and depression symptoms in adolescents. This highlights the importance of headache considering possible comorbid psychiatric disorders. This implies a necessity for multidisciplinary and prospective clinical studies to make clear the importance of the chronification hypothesis.
