Irregular sleep schedule may be more than double the risk of liver and gangrene cirrhosis.
A international study revealed a relationship between sleep violations and a high risk of ten -ten serious illnesses, sciencenedaily reports. Scientists from the University of Beijing and the Medical University of the Chinese Army reviewed data in the dream of 88461 adults an average of 6.8 years from Britain Biobank.
According to results, in 92 of 172 diseases, more than 20% of the risk may be attributed to unhealthy sleep habits. In particular, sleep after 00:30 is associated with 2.57 times more likely to develop liver cirrhosis. And an unstable circadian rhythm – with 2.61 times a major risk of gangrene.
Those who set attention emphasize that attention should be paid not only to the duration of sleep, but also to its regularity. Researchers have questioned previous assumptions about the dangers of “too long sleep”: according to the purpose of the data, the duration of more than 9 hours linked to only one disease. For more than 21% of so -called “long sleep”, actual sleep is less than 6 hours – this indicates a confusion between staying in bed and real sleep.
“Our results emphasize that a stable sleep mode is less important than its duration,” said Professor Schenfen Van, the leader with the author.
Some conclusions have been confirmed in American samples. At the same time, scientists indicate the likely participation of inflammatory processes as a biological mechanism. The next step is to study the causes of the relationship and the effect of improving sleep in preventing acute diseases.
We remind you, earlier it was reported that scientists had identified a major receptor to improve fast sleep.
