Postmortem Evidence of CRH Neuron Reduction in Narcolepsy Without Cataplexy With Borderline Hypocretin‐1 Levels

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Narcolepsy is classified as type 1 (NT1) or type 2 (NT2) mainly according to hypocretin deficiency rather than cataplexy. While CRH neuron loss in the PVN has been described in NT1, it remains unclear whether similar changes occur in narcolepsy without cataplexy.

Age at Onset and Delays in Diagnosis of Central Disorders of Hypersomnolence Over the Past 30 Years

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Patients with narcolepsy type 1 (NT1), type 2 (NT2), idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) usually suffer from symptoms for years, even decades, before being diagnosed. We aimed to assess age at onset, age at diagnosis and changes in the diagnostic delays of these patients from 1990 to 2020 in a single centre.

Actigraphy against 32‐hour polysomnography in patients with suspected idiopathic hypersomnia

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 5, October 2025.
Summary Actigraphy, a tool known for investigating sleep–wake patterns at home, lacks scientific validation in hypersomnolent subjects. We aim to validate an actigraphy‐based sleep–wake prediction algorithm against 32‐h continuous polysomnography in patients with suspected idiopathic hypersomnia, and to compare its performance to predict sleep–wake ...
