Daytime sleepiness and disturbed sleep quality have been reported in some patients. We investigated the occurrence of daytime sleepiness\u2010related symptoms and subjective sleep quality in patients with NFLE in comparison with matched controls.<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>Methods:<\/jats:italic> Patients with NFLE at a single epilepsy center and matched controls randomly selected from the general population self\u2010administered questionnaires on daytime sleepiness\u2010related symptoms and subjective sleep quality [Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), Bologna questionnaire on sleepiness\u2010related symptoms (BQS), Berlin questionnaire].<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>Results:<\/jats:italic> Thirty\u2010three patients with NFLE and 27 controls were enrolled. \u201cTiredness after awakening\u201d and \u201cspontaneous mid\u2010sleep awakenings\u201d were more frequent in NFLE patients than in controls (36.4% versus 11.1%, p = 0.04, and 50.0% versus 22.2%, p = 0.03). The frequency of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) did not differ between groups. Posthoc analysis showed that patients with a complaint of \u201cmidsleep awakenings\u201d had higher ESS and BQS scores than those without (7.3 versus 4.3, p = 0.004, and 5.0 versus 2.2, p = 0.001, respectively) and more frequent \u201ctiredness after awakening\u201d (56.3% versus 18.8%, p = 0.03).<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>Conclusions:<\/jats:italic> Patients with NFLE have no pathological level of EDS with respect to controls. However, daytime sleepiness\u2010related symptoms could be more frequent in a subgroup of patients with subjective disturbed sleep quality, irrespective of the perceived frequency of seizures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2006.00882.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,14]],"date-time":"2006-12-14T07:30:03Z","timestamp":1166081403000},"page":"73-77","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":49,"title":["Excessive Daytime Sleepiness and Subjective Sleep Quality in Patients with Nocturnal Frontal Lobe Epilepsy: A Case\u2010Control Study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"47","author":[{"given":"Luca","family":"Vignatelli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francesca","family":"Bisulli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ilaria","family":"Naldi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Simona","family":"Ferioli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francesca","family":"Pittau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Federica","family":"Provini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Plazzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Roberto","family":"Vetrugno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pasquale","family":"Montagna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paolo","family":"Tinuper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-88-470-2275-1_5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","first-page":"176","article-title":"Validity of the self\u2010administered GINSEN form for the diagnosis of narcolepsy","volume":"24","author":"D'Alessandro R","year":"2005","journal-title":"Neuroepidemiology"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archneur.1990.00530030061017"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1388-2457(00)00410-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-131-7-199910050-00002"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","first-page":"883","article-title":"Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy: intracerebral recordings of paroxysmal motor attacks with increasing complexity","volume":"26","author":"Nobili L","year":"2003","journal-title":"Sleep"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1157.1996.tb00534.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/121.2.205"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0404.1998.tb07381.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/WNL.36.1.95"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/122.6.1017"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000054798"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s001150050255"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s100720300004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00004691-200001000-00008"}],"container-title":["Epilepsia"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.1528-1167.2006.00882.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2006.00882.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,26]],"date-time":"2023-09-26T19:49:51Z","timestamp":1695757791000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2006.00882.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,12]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"s5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2006,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2006.00882.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2006.00882.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0013-9580","1528-1167"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0013-9580","type":"print"},{"value":"1528-1167","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,12]]}}}
