Continuous variables were presented as Mean± standard deviation.
REM, rapid eye movement.
P <0.05 for comparison between not-insomnia and insomnia groups.
No. of symptoms was treated as continuous variable.
Symptom-days per month can range from 0 (no symptoms reported) to 100 (=4*25, i.e., all four insomnia symptoms reported as “almost always”)
P <0.01 for comparison between not-insomnia and insomnia groups.
