[The relationship between diabetes, stress and sleep problems in the light of the Hungarostudy 2013 research data].

The problem of diabetes worldwide raises increasingly serious public health issues in Hungary. In recent years, the emphasis on obesity as a primary cause of diabetes has been driven by a complex understanding of the causes of civilization: the role of sleep problems and stress in the development of the disease and the aggravation of the condition has been proven and supported. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between stress, sleep problems and diabetes in the representative Hungarostudy 2013 survey.

These are particularly prevalent in intensive care units (ICUs). Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in neurological ICUs have extended lengths of stay and may be at higher risk for CAUTIs.
