Key result
Short and long sleep duration and poor sleep quality show no link to aortic stiffness.
Why the study?
The relationship between sleeping habits and aortic stiffness remains inconclusive and has not been fully explored in the European general population.
Are short and long sleep duration and poor sleep quality associated with aortic stiffness in middle-aged men and women?
Observational
Are short and long sleep duration and poor sleep quality associated with aortic stiffness in middle-aged men and women?
p-value: p=> 0.05
Sleep duration and quality do not appear to be independently associated with aortic stiffness in the middle-aged general population.
No association in cross-sectional data does not support sleep interventions for aortic stiffness; leaves open longitudinal effects in other populations.
BACKGROUND: The relationship between sleeping habits and aortic stiffness remains inconclusive and is not fully explored in the European general population. METHODS: XCEL, continuously and stratified by cut-off of >10 m/s. Multivariable linear and logistic regression were performed stratified by sex. RESULTS: > 0.05), independently of cardiovascular risk factors. CONCLUSIONS: Short and long sleep duration and poor sleep quality are not associated with aortic stiffness, measured with the gold-standard method c-f-PWV, in middle-aged men and women from the Swedish general population, independently of cardiovascular risk factors.

Johansson et al. (2024) conducted an observational in Aortic stiffness. Sleeping habits (sleep duration and quality) was evaluated on Aortic stiffness (c-f-PWV >10 m/s) (p=> 0.05). Short and long sleep duration and poor sleep quality are not associated with aortic stiffness in middle-aged men and women from the Swedish general population (P > 0.05).
