Study Finds Good Sleep May Mitigate Brain Effects of Cardiometabolic Diseases
A study by researchers from Sweden's Karolinska Institutet found that good sleep may help reduce the negative effects of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke on brain health. Analyzing data from over 400,000 UK Biobank participants, including MRI scans of nearly 35,000, the study linked healthy sleep patterns—assessed by duration, circadian rhythm, insomnia, snoring, and daytime sleepiness—to better cognitive function and larger brain volume in people with cardiometabolic diseases. Improving sleep is seen as an accessible way to support brain health in affected individuals.
