“…Large population studies have shown that patients with ADHD symptoms report slower sleep duration, longer sleep latency and nocturnal wake time, longer sleep efficiency, 70 increased odds of insomnia, 70,71 poorer sleep quality, 72 and higher odds of suffering probable obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, RLS, and PLMS. 71 Despite the fact that many PSG and actigraphy studies have shown different alterations in patients with ADHD-only, 53,54,[64][65][66][73][74][75] other studies do not show significant alterations. 63,67,76 Moreover, a meta-analysis of studies using PSG or actigraphy showed that ADHD-only patients spent more time in stage 1 than controls as the only finding, 77 while another found no differences in PSG parameters between the two groups.…”

Sleep disorders seem to be a frequent complaint of patients diagnosed with Tourette syndrome (TS) or chronic or persistent tic disorders (CTD or PTD). In this review, we expanded a previously used search using 4 well-known databases up to February 15, 2022, looking for the coexistence of global and/or specific sleep disorders and polysomnographic studies performed on patients with TS/CTD/PTD. The references of interest in the topic were selected by hand. Sleep disorders in general, insomnia, different arousal disorders, the persistence of tics during sleep, excessive daytime sleepiness, and periodic limb movements during sleep (PLMS) were very frequent in patients with TS, most of them being more frequent in patients with comorbid Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The most frequent results from polysomnographic studies were decreased sleep efficiency and increased sleep onset latency. Many of these findings could be related to medication used for the treatment of tics and comorbid disorders.

“…Kapoor et al [114] examined the prevalence of RSD in 66 children with ADHD. Although restless sleep was reported in up to 81.1% of patients, only 9.1% of these were diagnosed as RSD; however, restless sleep was often iatrogenic or caused by other sleep disorders or psychiatric conditions.…”

In the last few years, restless sleep has been described as the key element of many clinical issues in childhood, leading to the recognition of “restless sleep disorder” (RSD) as a new proposed diagnostic category. The essential aid of video-polysomnographic recordings enables detection and quantification of the “large muscle group movements” (such as limb movements and repositioning) frequently described by parents of children with RSD. Strong evidence links iron deficiency to the pathophysiology of sleep-related movement disorders such as RSD, restless legs syndrome, periodic limb movement disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) due to the important role played by the brain dopamine production system. Serum ferritin is the main parameter used to evaluate iron deficiency in patients with sleep-related movement disorders. Iron supplementation is recommended when the serum ferritin level is <50 ng/mL, since the literature emphasizes the correlation between lower levels of serum ferritin, serum iron, and cerebrospinal fluid ferritin, and increased symptom severity. Moreover, several studies report an improvement in symptoms when ferritin levels are kept above 50 ng/mL. In this narrative review, we discuss the role of iron in sleep-related movement disorders, as well as ADHD, highlighting not only the connection between these two conditions, but also the relevance of iron supplementation for symptom improvement.
