Time to regularize sleep regularity From a quantitative view, research into sleep health has traditionally been viewed from the lens of duration: How long does sleep need to optimize performa

#Sleepduration has been proclaimed as extremely important indicator for health issues-starting with establishing routine. This editorial emphasizes that #sleep regularity is equally as important for routine. academic.oup.com/sleep/advanc...

Associations between a novel measure of sleep health and cognitive functioning in middle childhood: a crosssectional Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes cohort study AbstractStudy Objectives. Research linking children’s sleep to cognitive outcomes is inconsistent and has largely focused on one aspect of sleep, such as d

#Sleepduration is typically measured in studies analyzing its impact on #cognitive health in children. Using the #Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes study, a novel sleep health measure is analyzed for its impact on #cognitive functioning in #middle childhood. tinyurl.com/3vj2ja5e

Consistency is key: sleep regularity predicts all-cause mortality Across many domains of life, consistency is considered beneficial, and sleep is no exception to this rule. Epidemiological evidence suggests that greater w

Greater Sleep Duration Variation Linked With Higher Risk for Major CVD Events A study was conducted to determine if there is a relationship between average sleep duration and risk for cardiovascular disease.

An association not modified by genetic risk for CVD exists between higher night-to-night #sleepduration variation and consistently higher risk for major #CVDevents. Published in journal of @americanheart.bsky.social and @endocrinologyadv.bsky.social.

Results indicate that #insomnia, poor #sleep quality & #sleepduration ≤ 6 hours are associated with an increase in the prevalence of PASC -

Why Sleep Consistency May Be More Important Than Duration A new study highlights how sleep regularity, more than duration, significantly influences mortality risks from various health conditions.
