Self-reported sleep duration and quality and cardiovascular diseases among middle-aged and older Chinese: A 7-year longitudinal cohort study.

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death worldwide, and several studies have attempted to identify its risk factors. This study aimed to investigate the association between sleep duration and sleep quality, and the 7-year incidence of CVD among middle-aged and older Chinese individuals.
