Study on sleep-wake disorders in patients with genetic and non-genetic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
To study the frequency and clinical features of sleep disturbances in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients and compare sleep disorders between ALS with and without mutations. ⋯ In the current study, ALS patients with mutations were more likely to have sleep-wake disturbances than were those without mutations. The former group may benefit more from sleep management.
