【 摘 要 】

Study ObjectivesTo (1) replicate the recently described distribution of respiratory event–associated leg movements (rLMs) in participants with mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), (2) explore global and local factors associated with the presence of rLMs, and (3) investigate differences related to OSAS severity and periodic leg movements during sleep (PLMS) status.
