Air Pollution Significantly Increases Sleep Disorders
According to the latest research stud report published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, the air pollution could significantly elevate sleep related respiratory disorders.
According to researcher Diane Gold of the Harvard School of Public Health, air pollution can cause a “clinically significant” increase in symptoms such as shallow breathing and sleep apnea.
“You are at a 13% higher risk of having shallow breathing or stopping breathing for at least 10 seconds if pollution goes from the lower range to the higher range of pollution for that city,” Diane Gold stated.
Although this team of researchers has been successful in identifying a link between pollution and poor sleep quality but according to them causes for such links ae yet to be explored and known. “How much of the cardiac risk that can be explained by pollution, we don’t know yet,” she added.
John Heffner from the Providence Portland Medical Center in Portland, Oregon, at the same time advises that those individuals who suffer from poor sleep quality should seek out methods of air purification if they are planning to visit areas with poor air quality.
“I would advise patients with sleep-disordered breathing, particularly if they are not too responsive to therapy for their sleep problems, to seek air conditioned homes, and to seek out air conditioning if they don’t have it in their homes during times of serious air pollution problems.”
