CI, confidential interval; IRLS, International Restless Legs Syndrome Rating Scale; MDI, Major Depression Inventory; PIRS-20, Pittsburgh Insomnia Rating Scale (20 item); SD, standard deviation; VAS, Visual Analogue Scale.
↵* P values adjusted using analysis of covariance for the main effect of group when baseline scores were added as covariates to the model.
