The findings suggest that the course of NT1 is not stable. Over a 10-year period, cataplexy symptoms improved or disappeared in a large proportion of patients, and there was an improvement in daytime sleepiness and nighttime sleep quality. More prospective studies that repeatedly monitor CSF-HCRT are needed to confirm the current findings.
