Nature confirms the aging cost of sleeping too little or too much

Week of May 17–24, 2026: a Nature study of ~500,000 people maps biological aging clocks across 23 organ systems to a U-shaped sleep-duration curve, pinpointing 6.4–7.8 hours as the optimal range by sex. A Phase 3 RCT (SynAIRgy) validates the first oral fixed-dose combination for OSA (44.1% AHI reduction), a JAMA reanalysis shows hypoxic burden — not AHI — predicts patient outcomes after hypoglossal nerve stimulation, and a Science review links sleep neurotransmitter oscillations to dementia pathways. Oura partners with ResMed for OSA triage; WHOOP launches Strength Trainer while its FDA blood pressure dispute continues. Actionable insight: if you track sleep, your evidence-based ceiling is 7.8 hours — not 8.5.
