Participants with long sleep duration but depression had a hazards ratio (HR) of 1.59 (95% CI: 1.35, 1.87) for hearing loss. Mediation analysis showed that sleep duration mediated 10.1% of the association between CESD-10 score and hearing loss, while CESD-10 score mediated 70.8% of the relationship between sleep duration and hearing loss.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This study highlights the significant and interconnected roles of sleep duration and depression in the development of hearing loss. Interventions addressing both sleep and depression may offer more effective strategies for preventing and managing hearing loss.</p>","PeriodicalId":12473,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Nutrition","volume":"12 ","pages":"1528567"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11949788/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143751858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
