AASM survey spotlights pandemic-related sleep disruption
A survey of 2,006 US adults conducted by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine found that 56% have experienced "COVID-somnia" sleep disruption, and that the issue was more prevalent among younger generations. The most commonly reported sleep issues were difficulty falling or staying asleep, shorter sleep times, worse sleep quality and disturbing dreams, and AASM president-elect Jennifer Martin, Ph.D., noted that stressors like financial worries, concern for loved ones, isolation and other fears could be responsible.

Study IDs link between sleep apnea, coronary plaque
An association between the presence and composition of coronary plaque and obstructive sleep apnea may contribute to higher risk for coronary events, a study reported in the journal Chest found. The 692-person study, which employed sleep monitoring and coronary CT angiography, found that people with moderate to severe sleep apnea were more likely to have coronary plaque, more likely to have plaques with a noncalcified component, and more likely to have plaques with a low-density noncalcified component.

Research explores link between diabetes, poor sleep
Studies have indicated that poor sleep may contribute to increased risk for developing diabetes, and diabetes may contribute to poor sleep. Neurologist Dr. Dalia Lorenzo says the body's ability to produce and utilize insulin is impaired when people experience ongoing sleep disruption, and research indicates obstructive sleep apnea plus a severe deficiency of slow-wave sleep is associated with a more pronounced effect on insulin resistance than obstructive sleep apnea alone.

Proper amount of sleep may stave off cognitive decline
A study of 100 patients participating in Alzheimer's disease studies at Washington University in St. Louis suggests getting just the right amount of sleep -- no more and no less -- could mitigate risk of cognitive problems in aging, even if early Alzheimer's disease is present. "It was particularly interesting to see that not only those with short amounts of sleep but also those with long amounts of sleep had more cognitive decline," said researcher Dr. David Holtzman.

Falling asleep between 10 and 11 p.m. may reduce CVD risk
A cohort study published in the European Heart Journal - Digital Health suggests that falling asleep between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. may help reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular disease as compared to falling asleep later or earlier. Researchers found that people who slept before 10 p.m. had a 24% increased CVD risk, those who fell asleep between 11 p.m. and 11:59 p.m. had a 12% greater risk for CVD, and people who went to bed at midnight or later had a 25% higher risk for CVD.

Sleep apnea is a serious health condition that often requires life-long treatment. That’s why it’s important to not cut corners with testing, diagnosis or the range of therapies considered for treatment. Not all sleep tests are created equal. Learn how the AssureSleep test compares to a popular, bare-bones testing option here: https://assuresleep.com/pages/why-the-assuresleep-home-sleep-study
Why AssureSleep?
We’ve helped over 30,000 people successfully diagnose sleep apnea and related conditions so they could go on to achieve peaceful, restorative sleep.
Sleep testing used to be expensive, complicated and time consuming. We launched AssureSleep to change all that. Now, for a low cash price and after just a couple nights of testing in their own bed, patients can consult with a sleep specialist to determine if they have a sleep impairment and receive a prescription for the best treatment (if needed).
A telemedicine consult, testing in your own bed, no need to even return the testing device—what could be more simple?
