Poor Sleep in Adolescents Linked to Higher Risk of Heart Disease

The health of young people is greatly affected by the quality of their sleep. A new study found a link between poor sleep in adolescents and higher cholesterol levels, higher BMI, larger waist size, higher blood pressure, increased risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease later in life.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Sleep Apnea Crucial to Stroke Prevention

In early October, the Canadian Stroke Congress updated their stroke care guidelines to state that proper diagnosis and screening of sleep apnea is critical to stroke prevention. The recommendations follow increasing evidence that obstructive sleep apnea is a stroke risk factor.
