Brainstem Hyperexcitability During Cataplexy
Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2005The exact cause of narcolepsy-cataplexy syndrome remains unclear; however, the recent discovery of hypocretin deficiency in the lateral hypothalamus of narcoleptic patients has increased our understanding of its etiology. The authors performed masseter reflex, tibial F response, and blink reflex excitability studies during and between attacks in a 66 ...

The development, clinical course, and electrophysiologic characteristics of narcolepsy were evaluated in 50 adults who had a current complaint of sleep attacks and cataplexy. In most of the patients, the first symptoms, usually excessive daytime sleepiness and sleep attacks, developed during childhood or adolescence.

Abstract This is a chapter on Narcolepsy/cataplexy from the Miscellaneous signs section of A Manual of Neurological Signs. Most of the chapters contain a description of the sign, associated signs, and cases, supported by clinical videos and figures.

An Etiology of Narcolepsy-Cataplexy and a Proposed Cataplexy Neuromechanism
International Journal of Neuroscience, 1981Narcolepsy-cataplexy is an idiopathic sleep disorder that reflects a complex neuropathology. Surveys and physiological investigations indicate that genetic and stress factors are involved in its onset and that stress is associated with symptomatic fluctuations and exacerbations of its clinical course.

The diagnosis of narcolepsy-cataplexy is based on three axes: 1) the medical history is strongly suggestive when diurnal sleep attacks (narcolepsy) and drop attacks (cataplexy) are reported or observed; 2) the polysomnography is mandatory and shows nocturnal and diurnal (multiple sleep latency test) REM sleep onsets; 3) HLA typing, practically helps to

Treatment of Cataplexy With Clomipramine
Archives of Neurology, 1975A new antodepressant drug, clomipramine hydrochloride, closely related to imipramine hydrochloride, was used to treat four patients suffering from cataplexy, sleep paralysis, and hypnagogic hallucinations. Attacks of cataplexy were associated with rapid-eye-movement (REM) electroencephalographic patterns.

Diagnostic criteria and pathophysiology of narcolepsy-cataplexy have evolved considerably over the last 10 years. The main cause, already mentioned in a previous paper, in the Revue Médicale de Liège (65), in 2002, is based, in human beings, on a destruction of specific cells located in the lateral and posterior part of the hypothalamus (the ...
