Cognitive impairment is a leading cause of disability worldwide, and cardiometabolic conditions are key contributors to its development. Short sleep is also a potential contributor to brain health; however, its role in predicting mortality remains poorly understood. We investigated whether objective short sleep duration increases the risk of all-cause mortality associated with coexisting cognitive impairment and cardiometabolic conditions, i.e.,...
