A new study in Finland showed lack of sleep may be hereditary, and people with insomnia are more likely to die sooner than people with healthy sleep patterns.
The study is the first linking insomnia with mortality risk, Finnish media reported on Monday (4 / 7).
The study was conducted by the Institute of Occupational Health in collaboration with the University of Helsinski and the Finnish National Institute for Health and Welfare.
In a study of twins that large-scale, Finnish researchers followed the health status of 12,500 adult twin pairs during the 1990 to 2009, according to Xinhua reports - which monitored ANTARA here on Tuesday.
As many as 20 percent of participants suffered from sleep deprivation symptoms, including difficulty falling asleep, waking up late at night and sleep does not restore stamina.
The study found that compared with people back who are not identical, identical twins are more likely to suffer the same symptoms of insomnia.
The findings suggest genetic factors play a role in the formation of insomnia.
In addition, the participants were divided into three groups, according to the quality of their sleep. Among all participants, 48 percent are people who sleep well, 40 percent slept an average and 12 percent of people who sleep poorly. The results showed symptoms related to insomnia may increase the risk of death.
Meanwhile, compared with people who sleep well, seven percent of women and 22 percent of average men who sleep more likely to die sooner, and people slept poorly were 1.5 times more likely to die sooner.
According to the researchers, sleep deprivation is a common health problem among working age group. Chronic sleep deprivation increases the risk of many accidents and diseases, thus weakening the quality of life and ability to work properly.
The experts stated insomniacs should try to obtain timely medical care, and patients with chronic insomnia should be treated in a way better with therapy without medication.
