Specifically, general symptoms, cardiovascular respiratory gastrointestinal neurological psychiatric symptoms 47.7% (2,282/4,781), 3.4% (163/4,781), 35.2% (1683/4,781), 8.7% (416/4,781) 5.8% (279/4,781), respectively. For each one-point increase in PSQI scores, risk COVID, increased 3% CI: 1.01, 1.06), 7% 1.13), 11% 1.07, 1.15), 20% 1.15, 1.25), In multivariate models, compared with good sleepers, poor exhibited an (aOR = 1.17; 1.03, 1.33), 1.50; 1.06, 2.14), 2.03; 1.61, 2.54), 2.57; CI 1.96, 3.37). findings indicate that is related various manifestations populations.

Diet via FFQ inflammatory potential assessed using energy-adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index (E-DII). cases were registries. Cox proportional hazards models estimated hazard ratios (HRs) for risk. Results: After 23.8 years follow-up, 5825 identified. A diet combined with suboptimal increased by 12% (short aHR: 1.12; 95% CI: 1.02–1.24) 22% (long 1.22, 1.05–1.43).
