Risk Factors for Heart #Failure in the Community: Differences by Age and Ejection #Fraction

..the comorbidities with the largest attributable risk of heart failure were arrhythmia (48.7%), hypertension (28.4%), and coronary artery disease (33.9%); together these explained 73.0% of heart failure. Similar associations were observed for patients with reduced and preserved ejection fraction, with the exception of hypertension.

..migraine onset on the day immediately following the sleep period (day 0) and the following day (day 1). ..Sleep duration ≤6.5 hours and poor sleep quality were not associated with migraine on day 0 or day 1. Diary-reported low efficiency was associated with 39% higher odds of headache on day 1 (odds ratio [OR] 1.39, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06–1.81). Actigraphic-assessed high fragmentation was associated … Continue reading Nightly #sleep duration, fragmentation, and quality and daily risk of #migraine
