  6. Some people with insomnia may have trouble activating certain brain regions involved in short-term memory, a new study suggests. In addition, people with insomnia may have problems turning off brain regions that are typically active when the mind wanders, the study found. The findings may explain why people with insomnia often say they struggle to concentrate during the day or complete tasks. "Based on these results, it is not surprising that someone with insomnia would feel like they are working harder to do the same job as a healthy sleeper," study researcher Sean Drummond, an associate professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, said in a statement. [7 Strange Facts About Insomnia] But despite these brain differences, people in the study who had insomnia preformed just as well on tasks involving short-term memory as those people without sleep problems. Working memory differences The study involved 25 people with primary insomnia, meaning they have difficulty sleeping but do not have other related conditions, such as mental health problems. Another 25 people without sleep problems were also included. During overnight sleep tests, participants with insomnia slept an average of six hours a night, while those without insomnia slept an average of seven hours. All participants completed a working memory task while they had their brains scanned using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Working memory is the ability to process and store short-term information in the brain, which can then be used to complete a task at hand. In this study, the working memory task involved viewing a series of letters and identifying which ones had been displayed recently (specifically: one, two or three letters ago). During the task, people with insomnia showed less activity in brain regions involved in working memory, compared to people without the sleep problem. As the task got harder, participations without insomnia began showing more activity in another brain region also involved in working memory, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. However, this region showed now change in people with insomnia. In addition, as the task became more difficult, people without insomnia turned off regions involved in the brain's "default mode." These regions are active when a person isn't focused on anything in particular (as in when the mind wanders). However, people with insomnia did not turn off these regions. More than trouble sleeping "The data help us understand that people with insomnia not only have trouble sleeping at night, but their brains are not functioning as efficiently during the day," Drummond said. Because the study included only people in whom insomnia was the primary condition, [CENSORED]ure studies are needed to see if the results apply to people who have other, related conditions along with insomnia. In addition, the study involved people with moderate insomnia, and so it is not clear if the results apply to people with more severe forms of the disorder, the researchers said. The study is published in the September issue of the journal Sleep. Follow Rachael Rettner @RachaelRettner. Follow LiveScience @livescience, Facebook & Google+. Original article on LiveScience. Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulties falling or staying asleep, even though people have the chance for adequate sleep. The condition can be short term (acute), lasting days or weeks, or long term (chronic), lasting for a month or more. Acute insomnia is often caused by stressful events, such as a death in the family, said Dr. Ulysses Magalang, director of the Sleep Disorders Program at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, while chronic insomnia often has a secondary cause, such as another medical or psychiatric problem. People with insomnia can feel sleepy during the day, have difficulty concentrating and learning, and may feel irritable, anxious or depressed, according to the National Institutes of Health. Those with persistent sleep disturbances are also at increased risk for traffic accidents, have higher rates of absenteeism from work, and are less satisfied with their jobs, according to a literature review conducted by the University of Rochester in February 2010. Insomnia is a common condition — about 30 percent of adults experience one or more symptoms of insomnia, according to a 2007 review in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine. About 10 percent of people experience impairment or distress as a result of their insomnia, and about 6 percent experience symptoms for at least 1 month, and don't have another disorder that could account for the sleep difficulties. CausesInsomnia can be a consequence or symptom of another problem, which is known as secondary insomnia. According to the NIH, causes of secondary insomnia can include depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), headache disorders, sleep disorders such as restless legs syndrome, or symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes. Certain medications, such as asthma and cold medicines, can cause insomnia. Commonly used substances such as caffeine, tobacco, and alcohol can also cause insomnia, the NIH says. Research also suggests that exposure to light at night — such as computer or smartphone screens — can contribute to insomnia, Magalang said. In some cases, insomnia is not a side effect of another problem, in which case, the disorder is known as primary insomnia. The causes of primary insomnia are not well understood, the NIH says, but major life changes, long-lasting stress, and travel may trigger primary insomnia. SymptomsPeople with insomnia typically have trouble falling or staying asleep. They may lie awake in bed for a long time before falling asleep, sleep for a short amount of time, wake up too early or feel as if they haven't slept during the night, according to the NIH. It's common for people to have an occasional bad night of sleep, especially if they are stressed about something, Magalang said. But people should speak with their doctor if they experience difficulty falling asleep, or they feel unrefreshed when they wake up, which lasts for three months or longer, Magalang said. People should also speak with their doctor if they feel that their sleep problems are interfering with their ability to function during the day according to the Mayo Clinic. Risk factorsOlder adults are more likely to have insomnia compared to younger people, according to the NIH. Women are also more likely to have the condition than men — hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle and during menopause may affect sleep, the Mayo Clinic says. Other risk factors for insomnia include: Being under a lot of stress Having a mental disorder Working at night, or undergoing changes in work hours Traveling long distances DiagnosisTo diagnose insomnia, doctors will ask patients a number of questions about their sleep habits, such as how often they have trouble sleeping, how long it takes them to fall asleep and how often they wake up at night, as well as what their routine before bedtime is like. Patients may consider keeping a sleep diary for a week or two to help answer these questions, and write down when they fall asleep, wake up and take naps, the NIH says. Looking at the timing of a person's insomnia can help doctor's determine its cause, Magalang said. For example, if people find it hard to initially fall asleep at night, the problem might be related to their biological clock or circadian rhythm, Magalang said. Whereas, waking up too early in the morning is often linked with psychiatric problems, he said. Doctors will also take a medical history, which includes questions about the patient's health problems, medications, mental health conditions, and work and leisure habits, as well as whether the patient has recently experienced stressful life events. Doctors will also conduct a physical exam, which may include blood tests to check for thyroid problems that may cause sleep disturbances. An overnight sleep test may be needed if doctors think that a patient's insomnia may be caused by another sleep disorder. Treatment Lifestyle changes often help improve sleep for people with short-term insomnia. These include avoiding caffeine and other stimulants, going to bed and waking up around the same time every day, and avoiding heavy meals, exercise and bright lights before bedtime, according to the NIH. For people with chronic insomnia, a type of therapy called cognitive-behavioral therapy may help reduce anxiety linked to insomnia, such as anxiety about sleep loss, the NIH says. Studies have shown that the effects of cognitive behavioral therapy are more long lasting than those of medications, Magalang said. But if other methods don't work to relieve insomnia, doctors may recommend prescription medications, such as zolpidem (Ambien), eszopiclone (Lunesta), zaleplon (Sonata) or ramelteon (Rozerem). These medications are usually taken for only a few weeks, according to the Mayo Clinic. Sleep medications can have side effects — patients may feel groggy the next day, or rarely, they may sleep walk or drive while sleeping. Patients should speak with their doctor before using over the counter products that contain antihistamines. These medications have not been proven effective for treating insomnia, and they can have a long-lasting effect and make people feel drowsy the next day, Magalang said. Melatonin has also not been proven effective for chronic insomnia, but it may be beneficial for certain sleep conditions, such as jet lag, Magalang said.
