Association between plant-based diets and depression in older adults with heart disease: the mediating role of sleep disturbances
This is the first study to suggest a significant negative relationship between plant-based diets and depression in older adults with heart disease. Sleep quality plays a mediating role in the association between plant-based diets and depression. Optimizing the dietary structure and improve sleep quality may help reduce the risk of depression in older adults with heart disease.
