Implications of sleep disturbance and inflammation for Alzheimer's disease dementia

Irwin, Michael R, Vitiello, Michael V·2019·The Lancet Neurology

Abstract

Nearly half of all adults older than 60 years of age report sleep disturbance, as characterised either by reports of insomnia complaints with daytime consequences, dissatisfaction with sleep quality or quantity, or the diagnosis of insomnia disorder. Accumulating evidence shows that sleep disturbance contributes to cognitive decline and might also increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease dementia by increasing β-amyloid burden. That sleep disturbance would be a candidate risk factor for Alzheimer's disease might seem surprising, given that disturbed sleep is usually considered a consequence of Alzheimer's disease. However, a bidirectional relationship between sleep and Alzheimer's disease is supported by advances in our understanding of sleep disturbance-induced increases in systemic inflammation, which can be viewed as an early event in the course of Alzheimer's disease. Inflammation increases β-amyloid burden and is thought to drive Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis. Improved understanding of the mechanisms linking sleep disturbance and Alzheimer's disease risk could facilitate the identification of targets for prevention, given that both sleep disturbance and inflammatory activation might be modifiable risk factors for Alzheimer's disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
