Observe Change in Nasal Swab DRD2 Gene Expression in Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Patients on Prolonged Dopamine Agonist Treatment
Description

The study aims to observe changes in dopaminergic genes expression in peripheral tissue upon prolonged dopamine agonist treatment on patients with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Similar studies in Parkinson's disease have shown changes in alpha-synuclein expression, which might offer insights into the dopaminergic gene regulation seen in RLS. The dopamine agonist drugs to be included in this study are: Pramipexole (Mirapex), Ropinirole (Requip), Rotigotine (Neupro), Apomorphine (Apokyn), Bromocriptine (Parlodel). Specifically, the study will collect nasal swabs of participants partitioned into two groups, those who have not used a dopamine agonist or been on a dopamine agonist for less than 1 month compared to those who have been on the medication for 6 or more months. This research could provide insight into changes in dopaminergic gene expression associated with Augmentation Syndrome (AS) which occurs after long term dopamine agonist treatment in RLS patients.

Benefits of a Cannabidiolic Acid Topical Cream for the Treatment of Restless Leg Syndrome
Description

The goal of this open label clinical trial is to reduce the effects of restless leg syndrome. The main it questions it aims to answer are: 1. Reduce or eliminate the symptoms of restless leg syndrome. 2. Improve the quality of life of participants with restless leg syndrome. Participants will be asked to apply the topical cream to the affected area 30 to 45 minutes before bedtime for 14 consecutive days.

Blood Changes After Exercise in Restless Legs Syndrome
Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how exercise changes molecules in the blood in people with restless legs syndrome (RLS) to better understand the cause(s) of RLS. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: How does long-term exercise change proteins in the blood? How does a single exercise session change proteins in the blood? The investigators will compare long-term exercise to no exercise to see if the changes in proteins are specific to exercise. Participants will complete an exercise test and provide blood samples before and after the exercise test. Participants will be randomized (like the flip of a coin) in to either the exercise or no-exercise group for 12 weeks and then complete the exercise test and blood samples again at the end.

Spinal Cord Stimulation for Restless Legs Syndrome
Description

The overall goal of this proposed study is to evaluate the underlying mechanisms of neural control of blood flow in the lower extremities in humans with restless leg syndrome (RLS). At least 15% of the general public suffers from RLS and many more may go undiagnosed. This unfortunate disorder leads primarily to a disturbing sensation within the patient's lower extremities that requires movement for relief (1, 2). The central hypothesis of our study is that physiological changes in lower limb blood flow as a result of thoracolumbar epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) lead to the relief of RLS.

Nighttime Agitation and Restless Legs Syndrome in People With Alzheimer's Disease
Description

Nighttime agitation in persons with Alzheimer's disease causes patient suffering, distresses caregivers, and often results in prescriptions for harmful antipsychotics. Effective treatments are lacking because of limited knowledge of the etiology of nighttime agitation. The investigators propose a clinical trial to better elucidate whether a sleep disorder, restless legs syndrome, may be a mechanism for nighttime agitation, and if treatment with gabapentin enacarbil (Horizant®) reduces nighttime agitation, improves sleep, reduces restless legs syndrome behaviors, and reduces antipsychotic medications.
