Article Synopsis
  • - Insomnia is common among end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients and is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular problems, suggesting a possible interconnection between the two conditions.
  • - This study analyzed demographic and clinical factors among dialysis patients (2005-2019) to identify what increases the risk of insomnia, focusing on factors like age, race, and existing cardiovascular diseases (like diabetes and heart failure).
  • - Findings revealed that certain conditions (like obstructive sleep apnea and hypertension) increase insomnia risk, while being older, non-white, or using specific dialysis methods may reduce that risk; further research is recommended to explore the underlying mechanisms.
