Abstract
in English, Chinese

The quality of sleep, a key physiological factor that regulates information, memory, decision making, and other vital brain functions, can affect important physiological functions of the human body. According to disease classification systems, sleep disorders can be categorized into more than 90 types, including sleep apnea, insomnia, and hypersomnia. It may cause a variety of adverse consequences, such as depression, anxiety and other emotional disorders, as well as physical diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and stroke. In addition, the relevant cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and cognitive impairment not only harm physical health, but also are associated with workplace accidents and safety problems, constituting public safety hazards. Sleep disorders have become a major social and scientific problem that impacts on the national economy and the livelihood of the people. Research on sleep disorders should be given more attention by researchers and policy makers. Herein, we mainly discussed the latest findings and difficulties concerning research on the prevention and intervention of sleep disorders and proposed strategies and suggestions accordingly.

个体睡眠质量可影响机体重要生理功能，是调控信息、记忆决策等重要脑功能的关键生理因素。睡眠障碍按照疾病种类可细分为90余种，包括睡眠呼吸暂停、失眠、嗜睡等，可造成多种不良后果，如抑郁焦虑等情绪障碍和高血压、糖尿病、脑卒中等躯体疾病。此外，与其相关的心脑血管疾病及认知功能损害不仅危害身体健康，还易引发各类生产安全事故，构成公共安全隐患。睡眠障碍已成为影响国计民生的重大社会和科学问题，是我国亟须重视的研究领域。本文主要探讨国内外睡眠障碍相关防控研究进展及挑战，并提出相应对策与建议。
