Keywords:
Keywords: Insomnia, elderly, cognitive changes, brain health, sleep disturbances, cognitive impairment, neurodegeneration.Abstract
Annotation: This article explores the intricate relationship between insomnia and cognitive changes in elderly individuals. It delves into the potential consequences of chronic sleep disturbances on brain health, including cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, we examine the methods used to study this phenomenon, present key findings, and discuss implications for clinical practice and future research.
