Background: Studies relying on self-reported sleep data suggest that there is an association between short and long sleep duration and less than ideal cardiovascular health. Evidence regarding the feasibility of using digital health devices to measure sleep duration and assess its relationship to ideal cardiovascular health are lacking. The objective of the present study was to utilize digital health devices to record sleep duration and examine the relationship between sleep duration and ideal cardiovascular health.
Methods: A total of 307 participants transmitted sleep duration data from digital health devices and answered the Life's Simple 7 survey instrument to assess ideal cardiovascular health. Sleep duration was defined as adequate (7 to < 9 h per night) or non-adequate (< 7 h and ≥ 9 h).
Results: We identified three sleep-cardiovascular health phenogroups: resilient (non-adequate sleep and ideal cardiovascular health), uncoupled (adequate sleep and non-ideal cardiovascular health) or concordant (sleep and cardiovascular health metrics were aligned). Participants in the resilient phenogroup (n = 83) had better cardiovascular health factor profiles (blood pressure, blood glucose and cholesterol levels) and behaviors (healthy weight, diet, exercise, smoking) than participants in the concordant (n = 171) and uncoupled (n = 53) phenogroups. This was associated with higher Life's Simple 7 Health Scores in the resilient phenogroup compared to the concordant and uncoupled phenogroups (7.8 ± 0.8 vs. 7.0 ± 1.4 vs. 5.6 ± 0.7, P < 0.01).
Conclusion: This study identified three distinct sleep-ideal cardiovascular health phenogroups and highlights the advantage of incorporating sleep assessments into studies of cardiovascular health. Future studies should focus on the relationship between sleep-cardiovascular phenogroups and clinical outcomes. Clinical Trial Registration Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02958098.

Purpose: To explore associations of environmental and personal factors, participation, and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) with physical behavior (PB) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).
Materials And Methods: PB, expressed in duration and distribution of physical activity (PA; walking, running, cycling) and sedentary behavior (SB; lying/sitting) and PA intensity was assessed with the Activ8 accelerometer during 7 days. Environmental and personal factors (social influence, health-condition, illness-perception, self-efficacy, fatigue, mood, kinesiophobia, cognition, coping, sleep), participation and HR-QoL, were assessed with validated questionnaires.

Introduction: Sleep plays a crucial role in health, well-being, and academic performance. Despite the recognized importance of good sleep for students, there is a need for a deeper understanding of the sleep problems faced by university students to inform effective campus support services and interventions. This study aimed to evaluate sleep quality among university students by assessing differences in key sleep parameters between sex and age groups.

Introduction: Research suggests that perceived neighborhood social environments (PNSE) may contribute to gender and race/ethnicity-based sleep disparities. Our study aimed to examine associations between PNSE factors and adolescents' sleep patterns. As a secondary aim, we examined how gender and race/ethnic groups might moderate these associations.

Background: Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) has emerged as a novel noninvasive adjunct therapy for advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), yet no quantitative analysis had been conducted to assess its therapeutic effect.
Objectives: This review aimed to investigate the efficacy of tVNS on motor function, other potential clinical targets and its safety in various treatment conditions.
Methods: We searched six databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that involved treating PD patients with tVNS.
