| Thalamic vascular lesions, particularly in the paramedian region may cause arousal disturbances and hypersomnolence. |
| Although hypersomnolence is one of the main characteristics of acute bilateral paramedian thalamic infarcts, there are only scarce reports in literature concerning polysomnographic follow-up of these patients. |
| Daytime hypersomnolence, diagnosed by mean sleep latency on the MSLT ≤ 10 minutes. |
| Pearl was a certified general accountant who had been seriously affected by hypersomnolence and constant back pain and other related disorders. |
| Subjects with objectively measured sleepiness were not identified on self-reporting questionnaires, suggesting their inability to perceive their hypersomnolence. |
| The impact of this common genetic variant for efficient treatment of hypersomnolence and behavioral markers of increased sleep need after sleep loss is controversial. |
