Prospective cohort study reveals sleep affects mortality risk in individuals with different glycaemic statuses, suggesting potential screening importance.
Long sleep durations and sleep disorders were associated with increased mortality, especially among individuals with impaired glucose regulation while short sleep duration was discovered to associate with increased risk of mortality in people with normoglycaemia. These findings highlight the potential role of sleep assessment in risk stratification, although the observational nature of the study limits causal inference.
