About this study

Official title: Feature of Polysomnography and Cerebral Metabolism and Function in Narcolepsy With/Without RBD and Control Subject

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

Read the 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.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. video-polysomnographic(PSG)

    video-PSG monitor sleep from 9:00pm to 6:00am

    Measured: up to 100 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. multiple sleep latency test (MSLT)

    MSLT in the next day of PSG record daytime sleepiness

    Measured: up to 100 weeks

  2. functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)

    All narcolepsy with or withoutRBD accepts fMRI

    Measured: up to 100 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Narcolepsy and REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, run by Tang-Du Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Guoyan Chen, MD (86-02984717792, chenguoyan29@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

video-polysomnographic(PSG) (time frame: up to 100 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Dec 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
