Young people who sleep longer—and go to bed earlier—than their peers tend to have better brain function and perform better on cognitive tests. This is what researchers from the UK and China have found. However, the study of young people in the US also showed that even those with better sleep habits did not get […]
The molecular mechanism responsible for the varying severity of heart attacks depending on the time of day has been uncovered by researchers at UTHealth Houston. This could pave the way for innovative treatments that adapt to the natural circadian rhythm. The results of the study were published in Nature. How the Time of Day Affects […]
New research has shown how a simple circadian clock has powerful noise-filtering abilities, improving our understanding of how biological circuits maintain their accuracy in dynamic natural environments. The study highlights the remarkable ability of circadian clocks to adapt to environmental fluctuations while maintaining their accuracy. The findings are important for understanding how organisms—from bacteria to […]
A study conducted by researchers at Mass General Brigham suggests that meal times may be a greater risk factor for cardiovascular health than bedtimes. Numerous studies have shown that night work is associated with serious health risks, including for the heart. However, a new study by Mass General Brigham suggests that people could avoid the […]
New research indicates that lower proportions of certain sleep stages are associated with reduced brain volume in regions vulnerable to the development of Alzheimer’s disease over time. The results show that individuals with lower proportions of time spent in deep sleep and rapid eye movement sleep had lower volumes in critical brain regions, particularly in […]
