Disrupted sleep is linked to increased risk of death, particularly in women
For the first time, a study has shown a clear link between the frequency and duration of unconscious wakefulness during night-time sleep and an increased risk of dying from diseases of the heart and blood vessels, and death from any cause, particularly in women.
In a collaboration between a team led by Associate Professor Mathias Baumert from the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Adelaide and Associate Professor Dominik Linz at Maastricht University Medical Center (The Netherlands), the study of 8001 men and women found that women who experienced unconscious wakefulness most often and for longer periods of time had nearly double the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease during an average of between 6 and 11 years’ follow-up, when compared to the risk in general female population.
