White matter hyperintensities on brain magnetic resonance imaging: Comparison of early-onset and late-onset restless legs syndrome

Highlights • We compared the white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) of patients with early-onset and late-onset restless legs syndrome (RLS) and controls. • Late-onset RLS is associated with the presence of deep WMHs. • A cerebrovascular contribution to late-onset RLS should be further investigated....
