Slow Wave Activity During Nocturnal Sleep in Hypersomnolence Disorder

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow waves during non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep are associated with the restorative aspects of sleep. Previous research has suggested reduced normalized slow wave activity (SWA), particularly in the first cycle of NREM sleep, as a feature of hypersomnolence disorder (HD); however, the scarcity of existing research highlights the need for

Lyme borreliosis presenting as hypersomnia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Hypersomnia is known to be associated with symptoms, such as excessive daytime sleepiness, headache, and decreases in vigilance. We report for the first time a patient who initially presented with symptoms for idiopathic hypersomnia but after a thorough ...

Diagnostic Value of Psychomotor Vigilance Task for Severe Sleep Inertia in Idiopathic Hypersomnia Versus Other Sleep Disorders Without Sleep Inertia

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Diagnostic Value of PVT for Severe Sleep Inertia in Idiopathic Hypersomnia. ABSTRACT Sleep inertia impairs performance upon awakening and may be assessed using the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT). This study aimed to determine optimal PVT lapse cut‐offs at awakening to objectively measure sleep inertia by comparing patients with idiopathic hypersomnia

Eyelid Closure Behavior of Patients with Idiopathic and Nonorganic Hypersomnia, Narcolepsy-Cataplexy, and Healthy Controls in the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
PURPOSE Differential diagnosis of central disorders of hypersomnolence remains challenging, particularly between idiopathic (IH) and nonorganic hypersomnia (NOH). We hypothesized that eyelid closure behavior in the maintenance of wakefulness test (MWT)

Machine Learning for Diagnosis and Differentiation of Central Disorders of Hypersomnolence: A Systematic Review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 6, June 2026.
This graphical abstract presents the review process (including 41 studies). It highlights the use of machine learning techniques in adults with CDH, such as unsupervised learning for phenotype discovery and supervised learning for diagnosis classification. The figure summarizes the strengths and limitations of each approach, along with key clinical and

Supply and Demand in the Mathematics of Rare Disease Drug Development: Why Choosing the Right Model Is Crucial

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Clinical trials for rare diseases face a fundamental mathematical challenge that conventional randomized controlled trial (RCT) designs cannot overcome. With approximately 95% of the estimated 10,000–16,000 rare diseases lacking approved therapies, and drug development programs failing at rates exceeding 75% in non‐oncology indications, the ...

Narcolepsy vs. idiopathic hypersomnia: differentiating groups using cluster analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This thesis aims to address several issues encountered in the differential diagnosis of narcolepsy. According to the ICSD 3, narcolepsy is divided into two subtypes, narcolepsy type 1 and type 2. Narcolepsy type 1 has been shown to be caused by a loss of
