Resumen
Introdução: A narcolepsia é um (es un) distúrbio primário do (del) sistema nervoso central com uma prevalência ao redor (alrededor) de 0.02%. A narcolepsia é caracterizada por sonolência (somnolencia) diurna excessiva, cataplexia, alucinações hipnagógicas, paralisia do sono (del sueño) e fragmentação do sono. Diagnóstico: O diagnóstico da narcolepsia é estabelecido pela clínica e análise de cinco cochilos (sueño corto) diurnos durante o teste (prueba) de múltiplas latências do sono. Fisiopatologia: A fisiopatologia da narcolepsia não é totalmente esclarecida (no está totalmente dilucidada) . Existem várias teorias que são discutidas. Há (Existe) uma maior prevalência do alelo HLA-DQB1*0602 e uma diminuição da concentração da hipocretina-1 na forma de narcolepsia associada à cataplexia. Recentemente foram descritos diferentes padrões no loco (en el locus) do receptor de linfócito T alfa e a presença de anticorpos específicos tribbles homolog 2 em pacientes com narcolepsia. Estes achados (hallazgos) fortalecem a teoria imunológica. Tratamento: O tratamento da narcolepsia deve garantir (garantizar) a integração social e familiar podendo ser dividido em comportamental e medicamentoso. Conclusão: A narcolepsia é uma fascinante doença (enfermedad) que integra a neurologia, a imunologia, a medicina do sono, a psiquiatria e a genética. Pacientes com narcolepsia possuem prejuízo (presentan dificultades) no campo pessoal, profissional e familiar. Embora muitos avanços tenham sido feitos (Aunque se lograron muchos avances) , a melhor ferramenta ainda (la mejor herramienta aún) é a (es la) informação para os colegas médicos e para a população em geral.

Abstract
Introduction: Narcolepsy is a primary disturbance of the Central Nervous System with a prevalence of 0.02%. It is characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, hypnagogic hallucinations, sleep palsy, and sleep fragmentation. Diagnosis: Narcolepsy diagnosis is defined by clinical defaults and analysis of five naps during multiple sleep latency tests. Pathophysiology: Higher prevalence of HLA-DQB1*0602 allele and lower hypocretin-1 levels were demonstrated in patients with narcolepsy and cataplexy. However, the pathophysiology is not completely known, although a few theories are currently under discussion. Recently, authors described different patterns in the alpha T cell receptor locus and higher prevalence of specific tribbles homolog 2 antibodies in the narcoleptic population. Treatment: The treatment must ensure the familial and social integration of the patient. Conclusion: Narcolepsy is an interesting disease, which involves neurology, immunology, sleep medicine, psychiatry, and genetics. Narcoleptic patients have various difficulties in personal, professional and familial scenarios. Although many advances have been made, the best tool is information for physicians and the general population.
