Abstract: This review aimed to demonstrate recent research on the relationship between sleep disturbance and Alzheimer's disease (AD) due to sleep disturbance being determined as a specific modifiable risk factor for AD, but the mechanism is not well comprehended yet. The two main etiologies of AD are an accumulation of amyloid-ß (Aß) and tau protein in the brain. Several studies indicate a strong association between poor sleep and an increase of Aß in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma, signifying that sleep disturbance plays a crucial role in AD onset. Therefore, knowing this relation can help prevent AD through sleep disturbance monitoring and management.
Keywords: potential intervention, Alzheimer's disease (AD), sleep disturbance monitoring.
