Bone, sleeping in noon hours and alcohol consumption on weekends may, according to a new study, worsen obstructive sleep apnea. This disease causes repeated breathing interruption during sleep and significant snoring. Scientists from Australia claim that most people will worsen apnea over the weekend.
An international team led by experts from Flinders University in Australia named a weekend deterioration in the problem as social apnea. The phenomenon is associated with life habits such as the use of alcohol, smoking and irregular sleep regime.
Sleep data analysis of more than 70,000 people from around the world, measured by a clinically verified sensor under the mattress, implies that On Saturday, participants were more likely to be more likely to be moderate to heavy apnea than on Wednesday. The risk was higher in men of people under sixty years of age.
Sleeping by forty -five minutes or more extra over the weekend increased the likelihood of worse apnea by forty -seven percent, Sleep mode shift by more than an hour after thirty -eight percent.
“Sleep apnea is already a problem for public health, but our findings suggest that its real impact can be underestimated. Most clinical tests are carried out during the working week, so the weekend effect we now call social apnea“said the chief author of the study by Dr. Lucia Pinill.
