TI Normal sleep-wake and circadian rhythms in a case of Gerstmann-Sträussler-Sheinker (GSS) disease
QU Clinical Autonomic Research 2004 Feb; 14(1): 39-41
PT case reports; journal article
AB A polysomnographic study showed normal sleep patterns and circadian rhythms in a patient with ataxic type GSS. Our results suggest that sleep and circadian rhythm changes in prion diseases are due to the involvement of specific brain areas.
