Why the study?
The study aimed to evaluate the association between sleep-related factors—including sleep duration, self-reported sleep disturbances, and diagnosed sleep disorders—and the risk of cardiovascular disease in US participants.
Does a poor sleep pattern increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in US adults?
Population
21,115 US participants from NHANES (2007-2014)
Comparison
Poor vs intermediate vs healthy sleep patterns
Design
Cross-sectional survey analysis
Key result
Poor sleep patterns were significantly associated with an 82% increased risk of cardiovascular disease compared to healthy sleep patterns (OR 1.82).

Supports sleep assessment in CVD risk stratification; leaves open causality and requires prospective trials before practice change.

Does a poor sleep pattern increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in US adults?
Odds Ratio: 1.82 (95% CI 1.52–2.16)

Poor sleep patterns, characterized by trouble sleeping and diagnosed sleep disorders, are significantly associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease in US adults.
Wu et al. (2025) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiovascular disease (n=21,115). Poor sleep pattern vs. Healthy sleep pattern was evaluated on Cardiovascular disease (CVD) (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.52-2.16, p=<0.001). Poor sleep patterns were significantly associated with an 82% increased risk of cardiovascular disease compared to healthy sleep patterns (OR 1.82).
