Description

Pan Chen and co-authors study sleep and mental health among airline pilots in China in 2024. Pilots face odd hours that can harm sleep. Poor sleep is a known risk for low mood and anxiety. Past work on pilots was thin. The study uses a large health cohort from late 2022 to early 2023.

More than seven thousand pilots took part. About a fourth had signs of low mood. About a sixth had signs of anxiety. Short sleep and poor sleep quality both linked to higher risk. The link took a J shape, with a best point near seven and a half hours. The authors urge targeted steps to improve pilot sleep.
