Study Suggests Disrupted Sleep Patterns Could Lead to Cognitive Decline
Study Suggests Disrupted Sleep Patterns , Could Lead to Cognitive Decline.
New research suggests that heightened
variability in sleep patterns can significantly
impact cognitive impairment in old age.
PsyPost reports that there is already
a well-established association between
dementia and sleep disruption.
Recent studies have suggested that sleep
disruption might contribute to the pathological
processes responsible for developing dementia.

The new study looked to achieve a more comprehensive
understanding of how changes in sleep patterns
might impact cognitive health over time.

Our lab studies a new function of sleep
that has been characterized over the last
ten years โ that during sleep the brain
shifts into a kind of โcleaning mode,โ
clearing away wastes that accumulate
through the course of the waking day, Jeffrey Iliff, Study author professor of psychiatry and
behavioral sciences, and of neurology at the University
of Washington School of Medicine, via PsyPost.
Our work has shown that an
impairment of this process appears
to be one of the factors that may make
the aging and injured brain vulnerable
to the processes leading to conditions
like Alzheimerโs disease. , Jeffrey Iliff, Study author professor of psychiatry and
behavioral sciences, and of neurology at the University
of Washington School of Medicine, via PsyPost.
We wanted to start working with local
clinical studies to evaluate possible
linkages between poor sleep earlier
in life, and the development of cognitive
impairment in the decades to follow. , Jeffrey Iliff, Study author professor of psychiatry and

That is what led us to our initial
collaboration with the longstanding
Seattle Longitudinal Study, Jeffrey Iliff, Study author professor of psychiatry and
behavioral sciences, and of neurology at the University
of Washington School of Medicine, via PsyPost.
The team's findings were published in
the journal 'JAMA Network Open.'.
PsyPost suggests that the findings still need
a more comprehensive evaluation of long-term sleep
behavior to fully understand the link between age,
sleep disruption and cognitive degeneration. .
