Long sleep duration is associated with abdominal aortic calcification among male adults with chronic kidney disease: NHANES 2013-2014.

ABSTRACT: There are no studies exploring the correlation between sleep duration and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC). This study aims to investigate this relationship and its significance. Additionally, given the higher prevalence of sleep disorders and AAC in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), we conducted further studies in this population.
