22、rent.D.Understanding.CNapping may be part of life for most of us. However, some countries where daytime naps have long been part of the culture, such as Spain, now discourage the habit. Meanwhile, some companies in the US now promote napping as a way to boost productivity. “Its important to try to r
23、eveal the biological pathways that contribute to the reason why we nap,” says Dashti from Harvard Medical School.Previously, co-senior author Richa Sexena at Massachusetts General Hospital(MGH) and he colleagues used many databases of genetic and lifestyle information to study other aspects of sleep
24、. To gain a better understanding of the genetics of napping, they performed a genome(基因组)-wide association study (GWAS), which involves rapid scanning of complete sets of DNA of a large number of people.For this study, the researchers used data from the UK Biobank,which includes genetic information
25、from 452,633 people. All the participants were asked to clssify their naps during the day as “never/rarely”,“sometimes” or “usually”. The GWAS identified 123 regions in the human genome associated with daytime napping. Then the participants wore activity monitors called accelerometers,which can prov

27、tic-testing company. Also, a significant number of the genes near or at regions identified by the GWAS are already known to play a role in sleep.The team also identified at least three potential mechanisms that promote napping. Some people need more shut-eye than others. A daytime nap can help make
28、up for poor-quality sleep the night before. People who rise early may “catch up” on sleep with a nap. “This tells us that daytime napping is biologically driven and not just an environmental or behavioral choice,” says Dshti. Some of these mechanisms are linked to health concerns, such as a large wa
