All Work and No Play Makes Jack Lose Sleep
Open accessAbstract
IN THIS ISSUE OF SLEEP, VIRTANEN AND COLLEAGUES1 REPORT ON THEIR INNOVATIVE STUDY THAT REPLICATES AND SIGNIFICANTLY EXTENDS PREVIOUS findings on the relationship between long work hours and sleep disturbances.2 The study includes repeated measures of both work hours and sleep parameters to allow an exploration of whether long work hours are associated with incident cases of sleep disturbances while controlling for other risk factors. In results from multivariate analyses, the authors found that working more than 55 hours per week, compared to working 35 to 40 hours per week, was associated with significantly increased risk for shortened sleeping hours, difficulty falling asleep, and waking without feeling refreshed.

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.
