Sleep Profile of Patients With Septo-optic Dysplasia
- Conditions
- BlindnessAgenesis of Corpus CallosumSepto-Optic Dysplasia
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: Actigraphy, blood and salivary sample, and sleep evaluation
- Registration Number
- NCT06262152
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate sleep of patients with septo-optic dysplasia compared to patients with an isolated disorder of peripheral visual system and patients with corpus callosum agenesis since both visus defict and agenesis of corpus callosum might be present SOD but associated to other features / structural and functional anomalies.
Included patients and their caregivers will be asked to compile standardize sleep questionnaires and a sleep screening through an interview will be scheduled. Patients will be asked to wear an actigraph on their non-dominant hand wrist for 7 days.
- Detailed Description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate sleep of patients with septo-optic dysplasia compared to patients with an isolated disorder of peripheral visual system and patients with corpus callosum agenesis since both visus defict and agenesis of corpus callosum might be present SOD but associated to other features / structural and functional anomalies.
The secondary aims of this study are the following:
1. identify which factors such as clinical and neuroanatomical features including sensory experience influence sleep outcome and how
2. describe melatonin profile of patients with SOD
3. describe sleep EEG of patients with SOD
Three groups of patients will be included:
* Group A: patients with septo-optic dysplasia
* Group B: patients with disorder of peripheral visual system
* Group C: patients with Corpus Callosum agenesis
This is an observational monocentric study. The procedures in the study that are not included in current clinical practice in the follow-up pathway of the included patients are the following:
* administration of standardized sleep questionnaires (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index: self-completed questionnaire assessing sleep quality over a 1-month time interval;Epworth Sleepiness Scale: self-completed questionnaire assessing daytime sleepiness; Children sleep habits questionnaire)
* 7 days actigraph recording through wearing of Actiwatch spectrum plus at home
* Performance of Sleep EEG
* Performance of blood and salivary sampling for melatonin dosing (for each subject, one 4 mL blood and one 2 mL saliva samples will be collected at each assessment)

Group Intervention Description Patients with Septo-optic dysplasia, visual deficit and agenesis of corpus callosum Actigraphy, blood and salivary sample, and sleep evaluation * age 3-18 years * availability of at least 2 serial sleep EEGs performed during clinical follow-up * stable drug therapy in the last three months
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Sleep profile ( Sleep quality, sleep efficiency) of patients with SOD 12 months SLEEP QUALITY will be assessed through standardized questionnaires :Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index: self-completed questionnaire ;Epworth Sleepiness Scale: self-completed questionnaire assessing daytime sleepiness; Children sleep habits questionnaire .
Sleep quality and sleep-wake cycle will be evaluated, namely Child's inability to go to bed, the delay in falling asleep, sleep duration, overnight awakenings, anxiety related to sleep, parasomnia, respiratory disorders, and daytime sleepiness.
SLEEP EFFICIENCY will be measured by actigraphic assessment of sleep efficiency (the ratio of total sleep time to sleep period), total nighttime sleep duration, rest activity and number of awakenings.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method melatonin profile of patients with SOD 12 months For each subject, blood and and saliva samples will be collected and Serum and salivary concentrations of melatonin and of its main metabolite 6-hydroxymelatonin will be measured in samples collected from all patients by using a validated LC-MS method with minor modifications (Magliocco et al 2021).
Sleep EEG description of patients with SOD 12 months A Sleep EEG recording will also be scheduled at the time of study inclusion/evaluation. Previously performed EEG will be revised. EEG assessment will include the analysis of background activity, presence/absence of physiological sleep elements, interictal discharges, sleep macrostructure and microstructure ( spindle characteristics).
