Detailed Description

Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a common symptom in the general population. The prevalence ranges from 5% to 30%. And daytime drowsiness often brings negative effects, and even the daily function and the quality of life is impaired due to these hypersomnias. In some severe cases, many accidents can occur and endanger life. The current third edition of the International Classification of Sleep Disorders (ICSD 3) specifically classified "Central nervous system disorders of hypersomnolence" as Narcolepsy type 1 and type 2 ; idiopathic hypersomnia(IH), and Kleine-Levin syndrome (KLS). However, so far, except for Narcolepsy type 1, which has a relatively clear pathological mechanism that is related to the reduced secretion of hypocretin, other hypersomnia disorders such as Narcolepsy type 2, IH and KLS, that is no clear neurophysiological diagnosis standard, and the mechanism of these diseases is still not clear. Therefore, the diagnosis can only rely on the clinical symptoms and the clinical experience physicians. That is why the diagnosis of these diseases still has great difficulties and challenges. Therefore, in order to make the diagnosis more accurate, the investigators have to find out the "Biologic and neurophysiologic biomarkers" for these diseases. And let patients receive the correct treatment quickly.

The purposes of this study are as follows:

  1. The main purpose is to use Multi-Signal Based Monitoring System to link with brain image data and perform cross-comparison to find out possible pathological mechanisms of these CNS hypersomnias.
  2. Use the Multi-Signal Based Monitoring System to link with brain image data and perform cross-comparison to further screen out these clinically significant biomarkers for CNS hypersomnias, and to find ideal and accurate physiological biomarkers that can monitor the course of the disease.
  3. Utilize these precisely monitored biomarkers to track changes in the biomarkers and the long-term course of these CNS hypersomnias, and evaluate the treatment effect and prognosis.
  4. Use computer machine learning and other algorithms to analyze and construct a variety of faster and more accurate prediction models for these CNS hypersomnias, thereby achieving the goal of preventive medicine.

Research method:

This is a retrospective and prospective cohort study. There are 600 subjects (age 9-45) will be collected. These subjects will be divided into the five groups: (1) experimental group (narcolepsy Type 1, 300 subjects); (2) experimental group (narcolepsy Type 2, 100 subjects); and (3) experimental group (KLS, 100 subjects); and (4) experimental group (IH,50 subjects); and (5) healthy control group (age and gender matched healthy subjects,50 subjects). The investigators will collect all the clinical data for each subject, including clinical characteristics, sleep examination data, actigraphy, HLA typing, and brain imaging data.

Data analysis method:

Use multiple physiological signals to generate real-time quantitative algorithms and find physiological biomarkers related to hypersomnias. Use the aforementioned data were categorized and grouped through data analysis based on computer machine learning, neural network, and other algorithms. Then the investigators will build a predictive model based on the results and write a medical report and publish it.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Conners' Continuous Performance Test (CPT)
Time Frame: Once a year until the study is completed (up to 3 years)
The Conners Continuous Performance Test is a computer administered test that is designed to assess problems with attention.Many statistics are computed including omission errors , commission errors, hit reaction time, hit reaction time standard error, detectability, response style, perseverations , hit reaction time by block, standard error by block, reaction time by ISI , and standard error by ISI. These statistics are converted to T-scores and can be interpreted in terms of various aspects of attention including inattention, impulsivity, and vigilance.Higher rates of correct detections indicate better attentional capacity.
