Associations Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in JMIR human factors, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundSleep duration plays a crucial role in cognitive health and is closely linked to cognitive decline. However, the relationship between sleep duration and cognitive function in the Chinese population remains poorly understood.
objectiveThis study aims to evaluate the association between sleep duration and cognitive function among middle-aged and older adults in China.
methodsUsing data from 15,526 participants in the 2020 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, we used 3 composite indicators, encompassing episodic memory, mental acuity, and overall cognitive function to evaluate cognitive performance. Sleep duration per night, self-reported through face-to-face interviews, was also obtained. Adjustments were made using multiple generalized linear regression models, accounting for demographic, lifestyle, and health-related covariates.
resultsAmong the 15,526 respondents analyzed, 53.02% (8232/15,526) were female and 46.98% (7294/15,526) were male, with an average age of 61.5 (SD 9.27) years. Those reporting sleep durations of 4 hours or less (β=-1.85, 95% CI -2.07 to -1.62), 5 hours (β=-0.55, 95% CI -0.78 to -0.33; P<.001), 9 hours (β=-1.78, 95% CI -2.17 to -1.39), and 10 hours or more (β=-3.01, 95% CI -3.39 to -2.63) per night had a significant negative relationship with cognitive function. In the adjusted model, the negative impact of long sleep (≥10 hours) on overall cognitive function became more pronounced (β=-3.01, 95% CI -3.39 to -2.63; P<.001), followed closely by extremely short sleep (≤4 hours; β=-1.85, 95% CI -2.07 to -1.62; P<.001).
conclusionsThis study reveals an inverted U-shaped relationship between sleep duration and global cognitive decline, indicating that cognitive function should be closely monitored in individuals with both short and long sleep durations. Consequently, public health strategies should prioritize the promotion of moderate sleep to mitigate the cognitive risks associated with aging, particularly in culturally specific contexts.
