Sleep deficiency is associated with atrophy of the inferior parietal region of the brain, according to a study published online.

These findings provide some evidence that reduced slow wave sleep (SWS) and rapid eye movement sleep (REM) may contribute to brain atrophy, thereby increasing the risk of Alzheimer disease (AD).

New research reveals that lower proportions of specific sleep stages are associated with reduced brain volume in regions vulnerable to the development of Alzheimer's disease over time.

The scientists found that having less slow-wave sleep was associated with a smaller inferior parietal region and cuneus. Similarly, having less REM sleep was linked to a smaller inferior parietal ...
