INTRODUCTION: Recent studies suggest the existence of a physiologic basis for bone rarefaction and increased risk for fractures. This study aimed to address anthropometric differences between patients with narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) and type 2 (NT2) and discrepancies in bone mineral content (BMC) as a function of hypocretin-1 (Hcrt-1) measured in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
METHODS: We have evaluated 31 adult patients (aged 18-65 years) with NT1 and 18 patients with NT2, comparing the groups in terms of anthropometric variables - body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) - and percentage of bone mineral content (%BMC), measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Statistical analysis assessed the effects of Hcrt-1 levels on CSF, dietary intake, and medication use over these variables. Statistical significance was achieved with a confidence interval of 95 % and p < 0.05.
RESULTS: Patients with NT1 presented with higher BMI (32.04 ± 6.95 vs. 25.38 ± 4.26 kg/m2; p < 0.01) and WHR (0.89 ± 0.09 vs. 0.83 ± 0.09; p = 0.02) compared to NT2, in detriment of %BMC, which was lower for NT1 (4.1 ± 1.02 vs. 4.89 ± 0.59; p < 0.01). Hcrt-1 in CSF showed a positive correlation with %BMC (r = +0.48, p < 0.01) and a negative correlation with anthropometric features (BMI: r = -0.54, p < 0.01; WHR: r = -0.37, p = 0.01). There was a correlation between WHR and diary caloric intake (r = +0.42, p < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: The evaluation of patients with narcolepsy presupposes a syndromic approach comprising symptoms that go far beyond excessive daytime sleepiness. The integrated follow-up, including nutritional profile and anthropometric features, should add value in reducing morbidity in this population.
