-Summary

This will be a crossover controlled trial designed to recruit 40 participants, who will be divided into two groups of 20 subjects each. The participants will be randomly assigned to either Group A or Group B. Group A will receive the sleep electric blanket intervention for a period of 7 days, while Group B will serve as the control group without any additional intervention. After the intervention period, there will be a washout period of 7 days to ensure that any effects of the intervention have subsided before the crossover.

Following the washout period, the groups will switch roles: Group B will then receive the sleep electric blanket intervention, and Group A will become the control group. This second phase will also last for 7 days, preceded and followed by the same assessment procedures as the initial phase. This design will allow for a comparison of the intervention's effects against a control period within the same group of participants, enhancing the study's internal validity.

Mild-heat groupExperimentalDevice: Electric BlanketParticipants will be randomized into groups A and B. When the subject's group cohort undergoes the intervention phase (as opposed to the control phase), they will receive a 7-day, 8-hour intervention with an electric blanket set at +5±1°C above room temperature.
Non-mild-heat groupNo interventionParticipants will be randomized into groups A and B. There will be no additional sleep temperature intervention while the group is in the control period.
  • Electric Blanket (Device): Participants were randomized to groups A and B. When the subject\'s group cohort went through the intervention phase (instead of the control phase), they received a 7-day, 8-hour intervention with an electric blanket +5±1°C above room temperature.
