AHA Scientific Sessions 2026 Abstract
Sleep problems’ link to cardiovascular deaths varied by risk
Sleep scores of one and two had adjusted hazard ratios of 0.907 and 1.117 versus zero, relative death-rate measures whose uncertainty ranges included no difference.Sleep scores of one and two had adjusted hazard ratios of 0.907 and 1.117 versus zero, relative death-rate measures whose uncertainty ranges included no difference.
Cohort · 33,661 peopleCardiovascular disease
Who was studied33,661 adults without diabetes and with elevated BMI
What changedCardiovascular death risk was higher with sleep problems and advanced heart-kidney-metabolic risk together than their separate effects would predict
The catchSleep impairment scores relied partly on self-reported sleep trouble, making them vulnerable to reporting errors
