Analyzing sex-specific differences in sleep quality, resilience, and biomarkers among older adults in the Gan-Dau Healthy Longevity Plan
This study highlights the association between sleep quality and resilience in older adults. Good sleep quality is related to better resilience, but greater depressive symptoms are also linked to poorer resilience in both sexes. Nevertheless, the low habitual sleep efficiency and frequent use of sleeping medications in women but not men with poor sleep quality highlight the need to explore sex-specific approaches to address the interplay of sleep quality, resilience, and other factors (such as depressive symptoms) in healthy aging.
