Association between nighttime sleep duration trajectories and frailty in middle-aged and older adults: A work-in-progress model based on a CHARLS cohort
Long-term exposure to short sleep may be associated with an elevated risk factor for frailty in middle-aged and older adults. Given the modest effect sizes observed, these findings should be interpreted as exploratory and part of a work-in-progress model. Continuous monitoring of sleep duration may still offer insights for early screening and prevention of frailty.
