According to a new study, to remain awake until the end of the weekend can aggravate a general sleep disorder.
According to estimates, 936 million adults around the world suffer from obstructive apnea in a dream (OSA), when the air ducts repeatedly collapse during sleep, causing pauses for breathing, frequent sleep disorders, strong snoring and fatigue.
The latest study shows that the actual tax on sleep disorder can be even greater, since the researchers revealed a surge in seriousness on weekends from the choice of lifestyle and irregular sleep.
“Sleep is already a serious problem of public health, but our conclusions show that its real influence can be underestimated,” said Lucia Pinilla, research writers and sleep researcher at Flinders University in Australia.
“Most clinical diagnostic tests are held in just one night, usually one night of the week, losing the phenomenon of the weekend that we now call“ social apnea, ”she added.
The Pinilla team analyzed the data for about 70,000 people around the world, whose quality of sleep was observed using a screen located under their mattress.
The study reported that sleep disorders were much more common on weekends. People were 18% more likely to have moderate or heavy OSA on Saturdays compared to environments.
Changes in the sleep program – either at night, or sleep – exacerbate apnea in a dream.
For example, the dream of another 45 minutes on weekends increased the risk of serious sleep disorders by 47%.
The factors associated with life and related, in the visible one, also play a role. Adults 60 years and older had 7 percent weekend growth compared to 24 percent of people under 60.
The results were published in the American journal of respiratory medicine and intensive care medicine.
How apnea in a dream affects health
Apnee in a dream can have more serious consequences than a bad night’s rest. If you do not treat, the condition can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, stroke, depression and dementia.
Pinilla warned that the weekend peak could further increase the risk of these health problems.
Many people with OSA use a continuous positive pressure machine in the respiratory tract (CPAP) during sleep to ensure a normal flow of air and prevent breathing and snoring of the holidays at night.
Danny Ecert, one of the authors of the study, said that people with OSA should also try to support sleep and sleep seven or hours at night, even on weekends.
“Maintaining a sustainable time for awakening and using OSA prescription even on weekends and sleep, when you feel that you can dream, help you make sure that you often have enough restoration sleep, which can help fight it.
