Abstract
ObjectiveTo validate polysomnographic markers (sleep latency and sleep-onset REM periods [SOREMPs] at the Multiple Sleep Latency Test [MSLT] and nocturnal polysomnography [PSG]) for pediatric narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) against CSF hypocretin-1 (hcrt-1) deficiency and presence of cataplexy, as no criteria are currently validated in children.MethodsClinical, neurophysiologic, and, when available, biological data (HLA-DQB1*06:02 positivity, CSF hcrt-1 levels) of 357 consecutive children below 18 years of age evaluated for suspected narcolepsy were collected. Best MSLT cutoffs were obtained by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis by contrasting among patients with available CSF hcrt-1 assay (n = 228) with vs without CSF hcrt-1 deficiency, and further validated in patients without available CSF hcrt-1 against cataplexy (n = 129).ResultsPatients with CSF hcrt-1 deficiency were best recognized using a mean MSLT sleep latency ≤8.2 minutes (area under the ROC curve of 0.985), or by at least 2 SOREMPs at the MSLT (area under the ROC curve of 0.975), or the combined PSG + MSLT (area under the ROC curve of 0.977). Although specificity and sensitivity of reference MSLT sleep latency ≤8 minutes and ≥2 SOREMPs (nocturnal SOREMP included) was 100% and 94.87%, the combination of MSLT sleep latency and SOREMP counts did not improve diagnostic accuracy. Age or sex also did not significantly influence these results in our pediatric population.ConclusionsAt least 2 SOREMPs or a mean sleep latency ≤8.2 minutes at the MSLT are valid and reliable markers for pediatric NT1 diagnosis, a result contrasting with adult NT1 criteria.Classification of evidenceThis study provides Class III evidence that for children with suspected narcolepsy, polysomnographic and MSLT markers accurately identify those with narcolepsy type 1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in the understanding of narcolepsy, little information the on association between narcolepsy and psychosis is available, except for amphetamine-related psychotic reactions. Our case-control study aimed to compare clinical differences and analyze risk factors in children who developed narcolepsy with cataplexy (N-C), schizophrenia, and N-C followed by schizophrenia. METHODS Three age- and gender-matched groups of children with N-C schizophrenia (study group), N-C (control group 1), and schizophrenia only (control group 2) were investigated. Subjects filled out sleep questionnaires, sleep diaries, and quality of life scales, followed by polysomnography (PSG), multiple sleep latency tests (MSLT), routine blood tests, HLA typing, genetic analysis of genes of interest, and psychiatric evaluation. The risk factors for schizophrenia also were analyzed. RESULTS The study group was significantly overweight when measuring body mass index (BMI) (P=.016), at narcolepsy onset compared to control group 1, and the study group developed schizophrenia after a mean of 2.55±1.8 years. Compared to control group 2, psychotic symptoms were significantly more severe in the study group, with a higher frequency of depressive symptoms and acute ward hospitalization in 8 out of 10 of the subjects. They also had poorer long-term response to treatment, despite multiple treatment trials targeting their florid psychotic symptoms. All subjects with narcolepsy were HLA DQ B1(∗)0602 positive. The study group had a significantly higher frequency of DQ B1(∗)-03:01/06:02 (70%) than the two other groups, without any significant difference in HLA-DR typing, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) levels, hypocretin (orexin) receptor 1 gene, HCRTR1, and the hypocretin (orexin) receptor 2 gene, HCRTR2, or blood infectious titers. CONCLUSION BMI and weight at onset of narcolepsy as well as a higher frequency of DQ B1(∗)-03:01/06:02 antigens were the only significant differences in the N-C children with secondary schizophrenia; such an association is a therapeutic challenge with long-term persistence of severe psychotic symptoms.

Sleep Med 2013; 14:1393-7. [PMID: 24157097 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2013.06.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2013] [Revised: 06/15/2013] [Accepted: 06/20/2013] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Narcolepsy is a rare, chronic, disabling neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, hypnagogic hallucinations, sleep paralysis, and abnormal rapid eye movement sleep. It is strongly associated with the HLA-DQB1(∗)06:02 allele in various ethnic groups. Our study aimed to investigate the allelic spectrum of HLA-DQB1 in a sample of Han Chinese patients with narcolepsy and control subjects from Taiwan. METHODS We determined the genotype of the major histocompatibility complex, class II, DQ β1 gene, HLA-DQB1, in 72 narcolepsy subjects (44 men, 28 women), including 52 narcolepsy subjects with cataplexy (narcolepsy+cataplexy), 20 narcolepsy subjects without cataplexy (narcolepsy-cataplexy), and 194 control subjects (94 men, 100 women) using a sequence-specific oligonucleotide-probe hybridization technique. RESULTS We found a strong HLA-DQB1(∗)06:02 association in narcolepsy+cataplexy subjects (odds ratio [OR], 321.4 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 70.7-1461.4]). The association was less prominent in narcolepsy-cataplexy subjects (OR, 6.9 [95% CI, 2.4-20.1]). In addition to the DQB1(∗)06:02, we found that (∗)03:01 also was a predisposing allele (OR, 2.0 [95% CI, 1.1-3.7]) in narcolepsy+cataplexy subjects, though the (∗)06:01 was a predisposing allele (OR, 2.8 [95% CI, 1.2-6.7]) in narcolepsy-cataplexy subjects. Furthermore, we found a significant overrepresentation of DQB1(∗)06:02 homozygotes in narcolepsy+cataplexy subjects. CONCLUSIONS Our data add further support to the strong association of the HLA-DQB1(∗)06:02 allele with narcolepsy, especially in narcolepsy+cataplexy patients. Our study also indicates additional HLA-DQB1 alleles may modify the presentation of narcolepsy+cataplexy patients, such as DQB1(∗)03:01 and DQB1(∗)06:01 in our study. Our results are limited by the small sample size and can only be considered as preliminary findings.
