  "account": "Almost half of students in grades 5-10 report sleep disorders, according to a survey commissioned by the DAK health insurance company. The survey of around 30,000 students at 141 schools in 15 German states found that 69% feel exhausted at least once a week and 49% report reduced well-being. The DAK sees a link between exhaustion, sleep problems, and poor academic performance, citing Germany's weak results in the recent Pisa study. The trend is negative across all regions, with sleep problems and exhaustion increasing over the past few years.",
  "summary": "The annual DAK prevention radar shows that more and more children and young people are feeling exhausted. This does not come as a surprise given the poor Pisa results, the health insurance company says.",
