    Aim: Our aim was to determine the prevalence of restless leg syndrome (RLS) in patients onhemodialysis in Rize and to compare the demographic and biochemical characteristics in patientswith and without RLS.Method: We enrolled all the patients over 18 years of age who were on hemodialysis for atleast three months between April and June 2014 in five dialysis centers in Rize. RLS patients’diagnoses were confirmed using the The International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group(IRLSSG) criteria. Age, duration of hemodialysis, presence of diabetes, hemoglobin andhematocrit values, serum levels of urea, creatinine, sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphor,glucose, albumin, uric acid, iron, iron binding capacity, ferritin, and parathyroid hormone (PTH)were recorded.Results: 148 patients (43,2% female) were included in this study. The mean age of patients was61.00 ± 14,9 years . The mean duration of hemodialysis was 49,47 ± 67,3 months (4552). RLS was detected in 50 patients (33,7%). While the ratio of patients with diabetes was58% in RLS group, this ratio was 32,7% in RLS negative group (p= 0.003). Levels of fastingplasma glucose were significantly different in the two groups (151,40 ± 81.81 vb 116,00 ± 57.22,p= 0.003). While 58% of patients with RLS were female, this ratio was 35,7% in patients withoutRLS (p= 0.014). PTH, C-reactive protein, calcium, phosphorus, albumin, iron, iron bindingcapacity and ferritin levels were similar in the two groups.Conclusion: We found a 33.7% prevalence of RLS in patients receiving hemodialysis treatmentand the ratio of diabetes and female genderwere higher in patients with RLS
