From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

Unintentional napping was associated with possible/probable dementia. Intentional napping was not. One could easily reverse cause and effect here.

I am a frequent intentional napper (< 30 minutes). Am I right in reading that I am at baseline risk?

I'd guess this goes back to not getting enough healthy sleep, which is a reason people nap.
