=== Restless legs syndrome === According to one meta-analysis, the average prevalence rate for North America, and Western Europe is estimated to be 14.5Β±8.0%. Specifically in the United States, the prevalence of [[restless legs syndrome]] is estimated to be between 5% and 15.7% when using strict diagnostic criteria. RLS is over 35% more prevalent in American women than their male counterparts.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Innes KE, Selfe TK, Agarwal P | title = Prevalence of restless legs syndrome in North American and Western European populations: a systematic review | journal = Sleep Medicine | volume = 12 | issue = 7 | pages = 623β634 | date = August 2011 | pmid = 21752711 | pmc = 4634567 | doi = 10.1016/j.sleep.2010.12.018 }}</ref> Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder characterized by discomfort in the lower limbs.
