Scientists have discovered a direct link between heart disease and sleep problems for the first time. The study, conducted in mice and human tissues, found that heart disease may disrupt the production of the sleep hormone melatonin in the brain due to damage to a group of nerves called the superior cervical ganglion (SCG). These nerves connect to both the heart and the pineal gland, which produces melatonin. The research suggests a potential mechanism for why people with heart disease often experience sleep disturbances. Further studies are needed to understand the underlying mechanisms and potential treatments, but the findings may lead to the development of new drugs to treat sleep problems in patients with heart disease.

However, further studies and clinical trials are needed to confirm these findings and explore potential treatments.
