This study examined the associations between physical activity during different times of the day and weekdays with restless legs syndrome (RLS) severity and sleep quality in adults with multiple sclerosis. The results suggest that engaging in physical activity, particularly light physical activity (LPA) and steps, in the evenings may be important for managing RLS symptoms without worsening sleep quality.
Objective/background: The present study examined the associations among physical activity during different times of the day(i.e., morning, midday,evening) and days of the week(i.e., weekdays, weekend days) with restless legs syndrome(RLS) severity and sleep quality in adults with multiple sclerosis(MS). Patients/methods: Participants(N = 39) completed the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group Scale and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index as measures of RLS severity and global sleep quality, respectively, and wore an ActiGraph GT3X + on the non-dominant hip for seven days for measuring physical activity(i.e., light physical activity[LPA], moderate-to-vigorous physical activity[MVPA], and steps). Results: There was a significant effect of time of day wherein participants had more midday activity compared with morning or evening for LPA, MVPA, and steps; there was no effect of day of the week. Spearman's rho correlations across the week indicated higher evening LPA, evening steps, and overall daily steps (p =-0.42,p =-0.51,p = -0.40,respectively) were associated with lower RLS severity. Similar associations were demonstrated for weekdays(p =-0.39,p =-0.50,p = -0.41,respectively) and weekend days(p =-0.44,p =-0.51,p = -0.39,respectively). Higher evening MVPA on weekend days(p =-0.42) was associated with lower RLS severity. Higher morning and overall daily LPA(p = 0.34,p = 0.33,respecitvely) were associated with worse sleep quality. Similar associations were demonstrated on weekdays(p = 0.33,p = 0.37,respectively) and more evening MVPA(p = 0.32) was associated with worse sleep quality. On weekend days, more morning MVPA(p = 0.42) was associated with worse sleep quality. Conclusions: Our results suggest that undertaking physical activity, particularly LPA and steps, in eve-nings may be important for managing symptoms of RLS without worsening sleep quality.
