The transition to daylight saving time increases the risk of heart attack
The transition to daylight saving time and the loss of one hour of sleep increases to 25 percent risk of a heart attack .
On the other hand , the risk of heart attack is reduced by 21 percent on the first Tuesday after the hour back to standard time and people sleep an hour longer .
By the conclusion of experts have come by analyzing data on the admission of patients to hospitals in Michigan . They studied the receipts before changing to daylight saving time on Monday and those thereafter and so four years in a row .
- Up to heart attacks generally come most Mondays , probably due to stress caused by starting a new work week and the associated changes in sleep patterns - said lead researcher , cardiologist Amneet Sandhu .
- With daylight saving time , it teams up with one less hour of sleep - said Sandhu who presented their findings at the annual meeting of the American cardiologist in Washington .
Correlation between heart attack and lack of sleep has already been demonstrated in earlier studies , but Sandhu says that scientists are not quite understand why people are so sensitive to cycles of sleep and waking .
- Our study shows that a sudden , even the smallest changes in the regime of sleep can have a detrimental impact - stressed , news agency Hina .
