In a prospective study of more than 90,000 participants, short sleep duration and snoring were associated with elevated risk for incident HF.

The researchers conducted a prospective study of 93,613 Chinese adults from the Kailuan cohort who were free from preexisting CVD to investigate whether self-reported short sleep duration and snoring, the latter of which served as a surrogate for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), were associated with incident HF during a median follow-up of 8.8 years.
