摘要

Objective

Restless leg syndrome can impact a person’s performance, causing discomfort and disruption in work activities and family life. Hemodialysis patients are more susceptible to this syndrome, making it important to investigate its causes and provide solutions for improvement or treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the connection between the level of trace elements and restless leg syndrome in hemodialysis patients.

Materials and methods

In 1400, a descriptive and analytical study was conducted on hemodialysis patients at Mustafa Khomeini Hospital in Ilam. The study involved recording the tris element levels of all patients. The data was analyzed using SPSS.V.24 software with a significance level of 5%.

Results

Out of the 59 patients who were assessed, 29 were found to have restless leg syndrome. The mean concentrations of iron, plumbum, cobalt, selenium, cadmium, arsenic, and zinc were 523.98, 32.27, 0.74, 55.40, 1.1, 57.044, and 305.72 µg/l, respectively. All patients had levels of iron and zinc that were below the normal range. The lead and arsenic levels in the blood of all patients were within the normal range. In 72.88% of patients, one patient exhibited a normal cadmium level and showed no signs of foot syndrome, while the remaining patients had elevated cadmium levels. Additionally, 98.30% of the patients had normal cobalt levels, with only one patient displaying higher than normal cobalt levels but no symptoms of foot syndrome, indicating a statistically significant variance. No observations were made with a P-value greater than 0.05. The patients had selenium levels that were lower than normal.

Conclusion

This study found that restless leg syndrome is much more common in patients on hemodialysis than in the general population. Many of these patients also have low levels of important nutrients and high levels of harmful substances. These issues can be linked to the changes in these elements and the discomfort the patients’ experience. Proper treatment is important to address these problems.
