Study ObjectivesNarcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is characterized by unstable sleep-wake and muscle tonus regulation during sleep. We characterized dream enactment and muscle activity during sleep in a cohort of post-H1N1 NT1 patients and their siblings, and analyzed whether clinical phenotypic characteristics and major risk factors are associated with increased muscle activity.MethodsRBD symptoms and polysomnography m. tibialis anterior electromyographical signals [long (0.5–15 s); short (0.1–0.49 s)] were compared between 114 post-H1N1 NT1 patients and 89 non-narcoleptic siblings. Association sub-analyses with RBD symptoms, narcoleptic symptoms, CSF hypocretin-1 levels, and major risk factors [H1N1-(Pandemrix)-vaccination, HLA-DQB1*06:02-positivity] were performed.ResultsRBD symptoms, REM and NREM long muscle activity indices and REM short muscle activity index were significantly higher in NT1 patients than siblings (all p < 0.001). Patients with undetectable CSF hypocretin-1 levels (ConclusionIncreased REM and NREM muscle activity and more RBD symptoms is characteristic of NT1, and muscle activity severity is predicted by hypocretin deficiency severity but not by H1N1-(Pandemrix)-vaccination status. In the patients’ non-narcoleptic siblings, neither RBD symptoms, core narcoleptic symptoms, nor the major NT1 risk factors is associated with muscle activity during sleep, hence not indicative of a phenotypic continuum Study Objectives Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is characterized by unstable sleep-wake and muscle tonus regulation during sleep.
