What is going on

Shenzhen 23 -year -old girl dare not laugh in 10 years

Because of the genetic "sleeping" because of the gene

Recently, Jiang Jiang, a 23 -year -old girl who worked in Shenzhen, finally understood: Why did she go to bed when she started from junior high school, she would faint when she laughed, and nightmares kept nightmare. After the neurology department of Shenzhen University General Hospital was checked, she was diagnosed by a doctor as a rare disease "seizure of sleep disease".

Jiang Jiang introduced that he had long -term hormone and immunosuppressive agents due to uveitis. From junior high school to high school, I always fall asleep unconsciously during class. It is prone to hallucinations before going to bed at night. It is often awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night. The family thought that sleepy was a side effect of drugs and didn't care too much. In addition, Jiang Jiang dared not laugh for 10 years, and suddenly fainted when he smiled too happily.

After graduating from college, Jiang Jiang came to work in Shenzhen. She recently went to the Department of Neurology, Shenzhen University General Hospital for consultation. Huang Ruoran, deputy director of the neurology department of the hospital, introduced that the results of the "Multi -Drive Sleep Monitoring + Multiple Sleeping Lack of Crossing" Tips: In the five -time nap, Jiang Jiang fell asleep within 8 minutes. The average sleep latent period (from turning off the lights to sleeping) is only 2.8 minutes. The shortest time, she fell asleep in only 48 seconds.

"This kind of sleeping is a typical manifestation of seizure sleep. The sudden fall after laughter or emotional excitement is also one of the typical forms of seizures." Huang Ruolan pointed out that the average time from lying on the bed to sleep is 10-30 In minutes, if the sleeping time is too short, frequent sleep within 8 minutes, and excluding sleep in lack of sleep, you need to ask professionals to identify.

After a number of tests, it was found that ginger-hypothalamic brain secretion (HCRT 1) decreased significantly, and HLA-DQB1 had genetic mutations. This related gene HLA-DQB1 is the key to sleep awakening regulation. Similar to sleep-awakening "switch", gene mutations are equivalent to switching a bit "failure". The switching "failure" means that not only does not wake up during the day, but also not sleep well at night, such as frequent awakening, dreams, and pre -bed hallucinations. Jiang Jiang was eventually diagnosed with "seizures".

Huang Ruoran said that the disease may affect life. If there is a sudden attack, you can control it with medication; drowsiness during the day can find a way to reduce part, but the use of drugs is limited. The general method includes paying attention to improving night sleep, giving an appropriate environment, and avoiding excessive emotional excitement. In other words, if you find a way to "sleep well" at night, you can reduce "sleep" during the day.

About 2-6 people per 10,000 people are "sleepy" for this disease

8-20 years old is the peak of the onset

According to research, about 2-6 patients with sexual sleep disease per 10,000 people, 8-20 years old. This is exactly where many children are studying. But in reality, many patients are misdiagnosed and delayed treatment.

According to the latest results of the United States onset of sleeping in the United States announced by Stanford University in 2021, the average medical age of the disease was 26.4 years old, with an average diagnosis age of 30.1 years. 59%of patients have misdiagnosed once, and 29%of patients have experienced more than 5 times to confirm the diagnosis. Especially children, the average period for the first medical treatment to the diagnosis is 4.5 years.

This shows that it is easy to be misdiagnosed by misdiagnosis. Many people cannot distinguish whether it is simply trapped or a disease.

How to distinguish whether "old sleeping" is sleepy or sick?

Typical symptoms of patients with seizures include: excessive drowsiness during the day; sudden falls caused by emotional excitement; hallucinations before falling asleep; paralysis; abnormal weight gain; night sleep disorders; emotional disorders; precocious puberty ...

If you often sleep in seconds during the day, or if you can't wake up, you must be vigilant and go to the hospital for neurology in the hospital for a examination. Persons with similar symptoms, try not to engage in public safety -related work, such as buses, pilots, etc., so as not to cause accidents.
