Sleep disturbance and risk of incident incontinence in middle-aged and older Chinese adults: a 4-year national cohort study

Sleep disturbance was associated with higher odds of incident incontinence among middle-aged and older Chinese adults. Chronic lung disease contributed modestly to this association. These findings underscore the potential importance of sleep health and comorbidity management in continence care for ageing populations.
