- This case-control study assessed the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in Arab (Saudi) patients with narcolepsy using a structured clinical interview. The study included 74 adult patients with narcolepsy and 265 controls matched for age and sex.

Forty-four patients (60%) were diagnosed with narcolepsy type-1 (NT1) and 30 (40%) with narcolepsy type-2 (NT2). Psychiatric disorders were diagnosed in 45% of patients with narcolepsy compared with 15% of the controls (p
