Investigation of Clinical Feature and Brain Function in Narcoleptic Patients

Conditions
REM Sleep Behavior Disorder
Narcolepsy
Registration Number
NCT03376568
Lead Sponsor
Tang-Du Hospital
Brief Summary

This study evaluates the PSG and cerebral metabolism and functions in narcolepsy with/without RBD

Detailed Description

Polysomnographic (PSG) work-up one night to record nocturnal sleep condition in narcolepsy with /without RBD and control subjects including sleep macrostructure, occurrence of sleep onset rapid eye movement period(SOREMP), sleep stages distribution, and sleep arousle and leg movement and apnea hyponea index would be calculated.

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been used in human to nonivasiverlyn investigate the neural mechanisms. This technique also apply to measures the variations in brain perfusion, structure and morphology in narcolepsy patients by assessing the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal diffusion tensor imaging (DTI and voxel-based morphometry(VBM)

This study compare the feature of PSG and fMRI between narcolepsy with RBD, narcolepsy without RBD, control subject to evaluates the PSG and cerebral metabolism and functions in narcolepsy with/without RBD.
