INTRODUCTION: A trial of melatonin treatment in children with septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) and sleep disruption is accepted clinical practice in many centers. However, no objective measurements of sleep/activity patterns with 24-h melatonin profiles have been published for these individuals, and the pathophysiological basis underlying sleep disorders in SOD remains largely unknown.
METHODS: We studied six children with rest-activity disturbances and SOD. All wore an Actiwatch-Mini (a noninvasive method of detecting and recording movement intensity) for 2 wk and were admitted to hospital for a 24-h period during which hourly measurements of serum melatonin were taken. Sleep data were analyzed in conjunction with a detailed sleep diary. Ethical approval was obtained for these studies.
RESULTS: Two children produced virtually no melatonin throughout the 24-h period of measurement and had fragmented sleep patterns with no evidence of a non-24-h sleep-wake disorder or delayed sleep-phase disorder. One child had a normal melatonin profile despite actigraphy showing an arrhythmic sleep pattern. The remaining three children had fragmented sleep, with two having normal melatonin profiles and one having a modest increase in daytime melatonin concentrations, making the timing of dim-light melatonin onset difficult to discern.
CONCLUSIONS: There is considerable variation in timing and amount of melatonin secretion in these children. Surprisingly, none of the children had either actigraphic or melatonin profile evidence of a non-24-h sleep-wake disorder or delayed sleep-phase disorder. Understanding the heterogeneous nature of underlying sleep disorders in this group of children is important and has implications for their management.
