Sleep disturbances in aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU): a questionnaire study.

Sleep disturbances are common in many progressive metabolic encephalopathies. The possible presence of disturbed sleep-wake behaviour in the lysosomal storage disorder aspartylglucosaminuria, has not been previously studied, however. The sleep-wake behaviour of 81 patients with aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU, age 3-55 years, median 22 years; 42 female and 39 male) and 49 controls (age 2-57 years, median 18 years; 25 female and 24 male) was assessed through a postal survey.
