Mind-wandering and Predictive Processes in Narcolepsy: a Putative Mechanism Through Covert REM Intrusions
Mind wandering is a state in which attention turns away from the external environment or current task to focus on internal thoughts (past experiences, future events, planned actions...). Humans are thought to spend at least one third of their waking lives in this state. Mind wandering can be assessed experimentally …
Bacterial Translocation and Gut Microbiota in Type 1 Narcolepsy Patients Versus a Control Population
Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is a rare disease characterized by severe drowsiness, cataplexy, hypnagogic hallucinations, sleep paralysis, poor night sleep, and often obesity. NT1 is caused by irreversible loss of orexin (ORX)/hypocretin neurons in the lateral hypothalamus with decreased ORX levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Although the underlying process …
Spectrometry (MRM) Versus I 125 Radioimmunoassay (RIA) for Quantification of Orexin-A of Patients With Hypersomnolence
In humans, selective loss of orexin neurons is responsible for type 1 narcolepsy (NT1), or narcolepsy with cataplexy, or orexin deficiency syndrome. The International Classification of Sleep Disorders 3rd edition (ICSD-3) distinguishes between hypersomnolence of central origin: NT1, narcolepsy type 2 (NT2), or narcolepsy without cataplexy, and idiopathic hypersomnia (HI). …
Deciphering the Interactions Between Food Intake, Sleepiness, and Nighttime Sleep Quality in Patients With Type 1 Narcolepsy and Idiopathic Hypersomnia
Links between sleep and food intake are manyfold. In healthy individuals, sleep deprivation promotes obesity by stimulating food intake of high glycemic index (GI) foods. Conversely, high GI foods induce sleepiness. Obesity is observed in 30-50% of patients with Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1). Its determinism may involve transient changes in …
The Impact of Light, Electrical, and Magnetic Neuroregulation Interventions on Sleep-wake Disorders
Carry out precise and effective neuromodulation interventions, and develop new neuromodulation technologies for sleep disorders. Use phototherapy, transcranial electrical/magnetic stimulation and other therapies to conduct self-controlled intervention studies on insomnia, narcolepsy, and rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder .
Improving Social Relationships for Adolescents with Central Disorders of Hypersomnolence
The goal of this study is to test a web-based psychoeducational resource for adolescents with central disorders of hypersomnolence and their families. The investigators hope to assess the website's usability, acceptability, and feasibility, as well as its potential effect on social relationship health. Participants will be asked to review the …
Mentalizating in Adults Suffering From Narcolepsy Type 1.
The main objective is to examine the potential mentalization impairments affecting a population suffering from narcolepsy type 1. Indeed, the hypothesis of this research is that mentalization could be impaired in narcoleptic patients.
International Swiss Primary Hypersomnolence and Narcolepsy Cohort Study
Swiss Primary Hypersomnolence and Narcolepsy Cohort Study (SPHYNCS) is a cohort study on disease presentation and long-term course with an exploratory approach to detect biomarkers.
