Man, what a crappy article... I really hate it when those kind of magazines try to make pseudo scientific articles. They behave like they give you facts, but the truth is, they never give the conditions of their experiments neither do they give the proportion by which risks are increased, there just isn't a single quantitative value to be found in the whole article.
Morevoer, they make it sound like we know and perfectly understand those things just beacause it happens that someone with a PhD is telling them whereas in fact sleep is one of the least understood of our physiological process. We don't even know "why" we sleep, we just know that not sleeping is bad.... Neither can we explain cases like Alexcha17 of people who get by with 2 hours of sleep a day or even a lot less.
There's still a lot of research going on on sleep so it kind of angers me when a trendy journalist comes up and presents it like we know all there is to know about it to draw absolutely certain conclusions when the actual study probably leaves quite a lot of question marks...
