## Abstract We describe an autosomal‐dominant locus for Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) in a French‐Canadian (FC) pedigree. Genome‐wide microsatellite scan and linkage analysis were used in this study. The locus maps to chromosome 16p12.1 and spans 1.18 Mega bases. The maximum multipoint LOD scores ar

## Abstract Six chromosomal loci have been mapped for restless legs syndrome (RLS) through family‐based linkage analysis (RLS‐1 to RLS‐6), but confirmation has met with limited success, and causative mutations have not yet been identified. We ascertained a large multigenerational Dutch family with
## Abstract Idiopathic restless legs syndrome (RLS) frequently follows an autosomal dominant inheritance with a variable clinical expressivity of symptoms. We describe the largest German kindred of familial RLS with 20 affected and investigated members in four generations with a variety of clinical
## Abstract ## Objective This study aimed to investigate whether the monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B genes are associated with antipsychotic‐induced restless legs syndrome (RLS) in schizophrenia. ## Methods We assessed antipsychotic‐induced RLS symptoms in 190 Korean schizophrenic patients and d
