Ce se întâmplă în organism când insomnia devine cronică: Legătura dintre somn, depresie și AVC

Chronic insomnia may indicate an increased risk for serious health issues, including stroke, dementia, depression, and suicidal behavior. A comprehensive analysis of existing research involving over 1.3 million participants found these associations, but experts caution that insomnia is not necessarily a direct cause of these conditions. The study published in "Sleep Medicine Reviews" revealed a 26% higher risk of stroke and a 28% greater likelihood of hospitalization among those with insomnia. However, the results should be interpreted cautiously, as some associations weakened when considering sleep medication use. Insomnia is treatable, with cognitive-behavioral therapy and medication as potential interventions.
