| Popis: | Background Sleep disturbance in adults with no health concerns is often linked to the thermal environment. This study assesses the impact on sleep quality of sleepwear made from fibers with different thermal insulation and hygral properties. This randomized cross-over study investigated the effects on sleep quality of sleepwear made from cotton, polyester and Merino wool in adults aged 50-70 years, at an ambient temperature of 30 °C and a relative humidity of 50%. Methods Thirty-six healthy participants completed four nights of sleep study with polysomnography. Participants were categorized by body mass index as |
