Comment on “Interrelationship between Sleep and Exercise: A Systematic Review”

الملخص EN

We have read with interest the article from Dolezal et al.

[1], entitled “Interrelationship between Sleep and Exercise: A Systematic Review,” which highlighted the links between sleep, physical exercise, and health.

As authors of the articles [55, 56] cited in the above manuscript [1], we would like to correct information in Section 4.4, “Exercise and Sleep in Special Populations”: “Several studies reported that one night of sleep deprivation can result in metabolic irregularities, such as decreased plasma lactate concentration as well as increased creatine phosphokinase and myoglobin levels, after a bout of exercise the following morning [55, 56].” Please note the exercise was not done the morning after the night of sleep deprivation.

Rather, it was done the following evening (i.e., at 17:00 h) [55, 56].
