Men aged 65 and over should monitor their sleep patterns and seek medical advice after Flinders University experts warned that disrupted slumber may lead to variations and general decline in key cognitive functions.
In a new article published in the Journal of Sleep Research, the Adelaide Institute for Sleep Health research group studied a group of 477 older men’s attention impairment and processing speed after disrupted sleep.
The participants from the Florey Adelaide Male Ageing Study undertook cognitive testing after successful home‐based polysomnography.
