Abbreviations: CNS HS = central disorders of hypersomnolence; d = daytime; dn-NAP = number of daytime naps; MSLT = multiple sleep latency test; n = nocturnal; N1, N2, and N3 = non-REM sleep stage 1, 2, and 3; NT1 = narcolepsy type 1; REML = REM sleep latency; SE = sleep efficiency; sEDS = subjective excessive daytime sleepiness; SL = sleep latency; SOREMP = sleep-onset REM period; TIB = time in bed; TST = total sleep time.

a

χ2 test.

b

Kruskal-Wallis test.

c

Post hoc: 1 = sEDS vs CNS HS; 2 = sEDS vs NT1; 3 = CNS HS vs NT1.
