Association between long-term total sleep duration and physical activity trajectories and cardiovascular diseases among middle-aged and older adults: a 9-year longitudinal study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It remains unclear whether sleep duration and physical activity (PA) trajectories in middle-aged and older adults are associated with different risks of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This study aimed to explore the trajectories of total sleep duration and PA among middle-aged and older Chinese adults and their impact on CVD risk.

Methods

This study was based on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. 12009 adults aged 45 years and older from five waves were included. CVD events were measured by self-reports of heart disease and stroke. We first used group-based trajectory modeling to identify total sleep duration and PA trajectories from 2011 to 2020, and then employed logistic regression models to analyze their risk for CVD.
