Independent and Combined Associations of Sleep Duration, Bedtime, and Polygenic Risk Score with the Risk of Hearing Loss among Middle-Aged and Old Chinese: The Dongfeng-Tongji Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Evidence available on the independent and combined associations of sleep duration, bedtime, and genetic predisposition with hearing loss was lacking. The present study included 15,827 participants from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort study. Genetic risk was characterized by polygenic risk score (PRS) based on 37 genetic loci related to hearing loss. We conducted multivariate logistic regression models to assess the odds ratio (OR) for hearing loss with sleep duration and bedtime, as well as the joint association and interaction with PRS. Results showed that hearing loss was independently associated with sleeping ≥9 h/night compared to the recommended 7 to <8 h/night, and with bedtime ≤9:00 p.m. and >9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. compared to those with bedtime >10:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., with estimated
