Abstract: Objective: Sleep is vital for normal cognitive function in daily life, but is commonly disrupted in older adults. Poor sleep can be detrimental to mental and physical health, including cognitive function. This study assessed the association between self‐reported short (<6 h) and long (>9 h) sleep duration and sleep fragmentation (3≥ nightly awakenings) in cognitive function. Methods: Cross‐sectional data from 8508 individuals enroled in the PROTECT study aged 50 and above formed the basis of the univariate linear regression analysis conducted on four cognitive outcomes assessing visuospatial episodic memory (VSEM), spatial working memory, verbal working memory (VWM), and verbal reasoning (VR). Results: Short (ß = −0.153, 95% CI [−0.258, −0.048], p = 0.004) and long sleep duration (ß = −0.459, 95% CI [−0.826, −0.091], p = 0.014) were significantly associated with poorer cognitive performance in VWM. Long sleep duration (ß = −2.986, 95% CI [−5.453, −0.518], p = 0.018) was associated with impaired VR. Short sleep (ß = −0.133, 95% CI [−0.196, −0.069], p = <0.001) and sleep fragmentation (ß = −0.043, 95% CI [−0.085, −0.001], p = 0.043) were associated with reduced VSEM. These associations remained significant when including other established risk factors for dementia and cognitive decline (e.g., depression, hypertension). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that short and long sleep durations and fragmented sleep, may be risk factors for a decline in cognitive processes such as working memory, VR and episodic memory thus might be potential targets for interventions to maintain cognitive health in ageing. Key points: This study assessed the association between self‐reported short (<6 h) and long (>9 h) sleep duration and sleep fragmentation (3 or more nightly awakenings) in cognitive function.Univariate linear regression analysis indicated that short and long sleep duration, and sleep fragmentation impaired cognitive processes such as working memory, verbal reasoning (VR) and episodic memory in individuals aged 50+, even when including other established risk factors for dementia and cognitive decline, such as low educational level, hearing loss, traumatic brain injury, hypertension, diabetes, alcohol consumption, obesity, smoking, depression, social isolation, and physical inactivity.Both sleep duration and sleep fragmentation are highlighted as potential risk factors for reduced cognitive function and might be a possible target for interventions to maintain cognitive health in ageing.
