Healthy sleep score changes and incident cardiovascular disease in European prospective community-based cohorts.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

Evidence on the link between sleep patterns and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in the community essentially relies on studies that investigated one single sleep pattern at one point in time. This study examined the joint effect of five sleep patterns at two time points with incident CVD events.

Methods

By combining the data from two prospective studies, the Paris Prospective Study III (Paris, France) and the CoLaus|PsyCoLaus study (Lausanne, Switzerland), a healthy sleep score (HSS, range 0-5) combining five sleep patterns (early chronotype, sleep duration of 7-8 h/day, never/rarely insomnia, no sleep apnoea, and no excessive daytime sleepiness) was calculated at baseline and follow-up.

Results

The study sample included 11 347 CVD-free participants
