Abstract
- STUDY OBJECTIVES: Sleep microarchitecture parameters determined by quantitative power spectral analysis of electroencephalograms have been proposed as potential brain-specific markers of cognitive dysfunction. However, data from community samples remain limited. This study examined cross-sectional associations between sleep microarchitecture and cognitive dysfunction in community-dwelling men. METHODS: Florey Adelaide Male Ageing Study participants (n = 477) underwent home-based polysomnography (2010–2011). All-night electroencephalogram recordings were processed using quantitative power spectral analysis following artifact exclusion. Cognitive testing (2007–2010) included the inspection time task, Trail-Making Tests A and B, and Fuld object memory evaluation. Complete case cognition, polysomnography, and covariate data were available in 366 men. Multivariable linear regression models controlling for demographic, biomedical, and behavioral confounders determined cross-sectional associations between sleep microarchitecture and cognitive dysfunction overall and by age-stratified subgroups. RESULTS: In the overall sample, worse Trail-Making Test A performance was associated with higher rapid eye movement (REM) theta and alpha and non-REM theta but lower delta power (all P
