Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that narcolepsy is associated with higher rates of depression than are found in the general population?

Yes. A 2025 systematic review reports that depression is considerably more prevalent in patients with narcolepsy than in the general population. Other sources note a link between narcolepsy and depression or higher psychiatric comorbidity, but without a direct general-population comparison.
