People with good sleep habits are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease as they age, a study has found.
Tuesday in JAMA Network Open. They examined data from 5,946 middle-aged and older adults who participated in five independent overnight sleep studies with neuropsychological follow-up testing as part of a research consortium.
Further research is necessary to understand what sleep treatments might help people maintain healthy memory and brain functions at certain stages of life, the researchers noted. The study is among the first to examine sleep and dementia in large groups of older adults with long-term follow-up testing.
