Kleine-Levin and post covid 19 syndromes, a possible relationship?
Kleine–Levin syndrome (KLS) is a rare disease characterized by recurrent episodes of hypersomnia, behavioural or cognitive disturbances, compulsive eating behaviour, and hypersexuality. An underlying hypothalamic pathology is suggested by the critical role of this structure in regulating sleep, appetite, and sexual behaviours; however, no consistent hypothalamic abnormalities have been identified. Viral and autoimmune causative factors have been suggested, on the basis of the frequent report of flu-like symptoms at onset, and the most frequent precipitating factor (70%). MAL, 58 years old, diagnosed with Covid 19 in ...

Idiopathic hypersomnia and Kleine-Levin syndrome
Rev Neurol (Paris). 2023 Sep 6:S0035-3787(23)01008-1. doi: 10.1016/j.neurol.2023.08.010. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIdiopathic hypersomnia (IH) and Kleine-Levin syndrome (KLS) are rare disorders of central hypersomnolence of unknown cause, affecting young people. However, increased sleep time and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) occur daily for years in IH, whereas they occur as relapsing/remitting episodes associated with cognitive and behavioural disturbances in KLS. Idiopathic hypersomnia is characterized by EDS, prolonged, unrefreshing sleep at night and during naps, and frequent morning sleep inertia, but rare sl...
