Description
Falup-Pecurariu and co-authors present a conference abstract from 2026 on restless legs syndrome in people who have just had a stroke. The team screened patients admitted with ischemic stroke, bleeding stroke, or a brief stroke warning event. They checked who met the standard study group rules for the syndrome and rated how bad the symptoms were. Brain scans showed where each stroke had struck, sorted into deep brain areas or the outer layer.
Of 754 patients, 105 had the syndrome, and most of those cases followed ischemic stroke. Deep lesions appeared in 86.7 percent of the cases, while outer layer lesions alone were rare. Patients with deep lesions also showed worse symptoms. The work links lesion site to both the presence and the weight of the syndrome after stroke.
