Daytime-to-Nighttime Sleep Ratios and Cognitive Impairment in Older Intensive Care Unit Survivors

Higher daytime-to-nighttime sleep ratios were associated with worse cognition, suggesting that proportionally greater daytime sleep may predict cognitive impairment.PMID:33644810 | DOI:10.4037/ajcc2021221
