Does tinnitus amplify the effects of healthy eating patterns and physical activity on the sleep disturbance or sleep insufficiency, based on the case study of NHANES survey in the United States.

Objective: Exploring whether the presence of tinnitus amplifies the effects of an individual's dietary patterns and physical activity on sleep disturbance or sleep insufficiency.

Study Design: This study extracted data from the five National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) between 2009 and 2018, including individuals who had undergone complete questionnaires on tinnitus, dietary habits, physical activity, and sleep. Multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS) and subgroup analyses were conducted to explore the associations of dietary habits, physical activity, and tinnitus with sleep disturbance and sleep insufficiency.
