Cortical morphometry in narcolepsy with cataplexy
The sleep-wake disorder narcolepsy with cataplexy is associated with the loss of hypocretin-(orexin-) producing neurons in the lateral hypothalamus. Several studies have reported abnormal cerebral activation in patients with narcolepsy with cataplexy. It

Clinical and polysomnographic course of childhood narcolepsy with cataplexy [PDF]
Our aim was to investigate the natural evolution of cataplexy and polysomnographic features in untreated children with narcolepsy with cataplexy. To this end, clinical, polysomnographic, and cataplexy-video assessments were performed at diagnosis (mean ...

GABAergic Neurons of the Central Amygdala Promote Cataplexy
Narcolepsy is characterized by chronic sleepiness and cataplexy—sudden muscle paralysis triggered by strong, positive emotions. This condition is caused by a lack of orexin (hypocretin) signaling, but little is known about the neural mechanisms that ...
