Posted on: 22/Nov/2016 4:03:07 PM
A new study conducted by researchers at the University of Illinois in Chicago has suggested that not getting enough sleep was linked with worsening kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease, or CKD. The findings will be presented at ASN Kidney Week 2016 at McCormick Place in Chicago.
