Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the relationship between short and long sleep duration and subjective cognitive decline (SCD) in a diverse cohort of cognitively normal mid- to older-age adults.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data, including 63,948 adults aged 40-70. SCD was assessed using BRFSS survey queries. Multivariable logistic regression models examined the association between sleep duration ( < 7, 7, ≥8 hours) and SCD, adjusting for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, and history of depression.
Results: Both short and long sleep durations were associated with higher odds of SCD. The association between short sleep and SCD was strongest among individuals in their 40s at the start of midlife. Findings were consistent across all ages for non-Hispanic Whites (NHW) and for Hispanics/Latinos in their 50s and 70s. Black/African American (B/AA) adults exhibited a stronger relationship between both short and long sleep duration and SCD as they aged from midlife into their 80s, compared to NHWs.
Conclusions: Short sleep duration is more strongly associated with subjective cognitive decline in midlife, particularly among B/AA adults. Addressing sleep disparities may help mitigate the risk of SCD.
期刊介绍:
Behavioral Sleep Medicine addresses behavioral dimensions of normal and abnormal sleep mechanisms and the prevention, assessment, and treatment of sleep disorders and associated behavioral and emotional problems. Standards for interventions acceptable to this journal are guided by established principles of behavior change. Intending to serve as the intellectual home for the application of behavioral/cognitive science to the study of normal and disordered sleep, the journal paints a broad stroke across the behavioral sleep medicine landscape. Its content includes scholarly investigation of such areas as normal sleep experience, insomnia, the relation of daytime functioning to sleep, parasomnias, circadian rhythm disorders, treatment adherence, pediatrics, and geriatrics. Multidisciplinary approaches are particularly welcome. The journal’ domain encompasses human basic, applied, and clinical outcome research. Behavioral Sleep Medicine also embraces methodological diversity, spanning innovative case studies, quasi-experimentation, randomized trials, epidemiology, and critical reviews.
