Abstract
The results indicate the presence of an abnormality of sleep microstructure in SMA1 patients, characterized by a reduction of A2 and A3 CAP subtypes. We hypothesize that SMA1 patients have reduced arousability during non-rapid eye movement sleep, which could be interpreted as additional evidence of central nervous system involvement in this disease.
