Increased mortality in people with chronic multisite pain and insomnia: the HUNT study
Individuals with chronic multisite pain and insomnia appeared to have higher all-cause mortality compared to pain-free persons without insomnia. Although speculative, these findings suggest that improving sleep quality in individuals with chronic multisite pain and insomnia may contribute to better overall health and potentially lower the risk of death from all causes.
