How Can Obstructive Sleep Disorder Affect Your Health: A disorder called obstructive sleep apnea that occurs when breathing is repeatedly interrupted during sleep is common in people with thinking & memory problems, says a new study.
The risk of cognitive impairment increases as people age. Better sleep is beneficial to the brain and can improve cognitive skills.

We also found that those with the sleep disorder had lower scores on thinking and memory tests. Fully understanding how obstructive sleep apnea affects this population is important because with treatment, there is potential to improve thinking and memory skills as well as overall quality of life.
