b.     Citation:  Tater, P., & Pandey, S. (2018). Restless legs syndrome: A continuing search for better diagnostic criteria. Neurology India, 66(4), 1028–1030.

c.      Discipline/Subject relates: Since restless leg syndrome is a medical condition, Medline was one of the first subject databases that I looked.  The database contains many journals about restless leg syndrome.

a.      Name of the Database & Subject: CINAHL Complete – Human nutrition and exercise.
