Does RBD happen in children?[edit]

I have not seen any mention of it in any MEDRS source, but I suppose it is a possibility. Although it seems unlikely that alpha-synuclein plaques could built that fast in children. It does happen in dogs. I suspect (unsure) that one would need to sort out things like night terrors and other sleep disorders in children, though. Melatonin helps. See WP:NOTADVICE.

Merge proposal[edit]

Rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder and Parkinson's disease should be merged to here (after checking sources for WP:MEDRS compliance). The good-faith article was created by a new single-purpose editor, and the stand-alone article isn't warranted. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:45, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
