Description
Hilal Uygur studies why insomnia hits adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder so hard, in work published in 2024. Insomnia is the most common sleep problem in this group, and poor sleep can make the core symptoms worse. Uygur focuses on sleep reactivity, the tendency for stress to trigger sleepless nights, and asks how it links with symptom levels and with how severe the insomnia is.
The study compared 61 adults with the disorder and 61 matched healthy adults, all filling in scales for sleep quality, insomnia severity, and symptoms. Sleep reactivity, insomnia severity, and poor sleep quality were all higher in the patient group. In that group, worse insomnia was predicted by higher reactivity, higher symptom scores, and being female, which makes reactivity a target worth treating.
