Popis: Background: Risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and sleep health are well-known to be sex- and race-specific. To build on the established relationship between sleep duration and CVD risk, this cross-sectional study aimed to describe sex-specific associations between CVD risk and other sleep characteristics (sleep quality, sleep timing and sleep onset latency) in low-income adults of African descent. Methods: Self-reported sleep (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI], Epworth Sleepiness Scale [ESS], Insomnia Severity Index [ISI]), demographic and lifestyle data were collected in 412 adults (56 % women, 35.0 ± 7.6y, 40 % employed) living in an informal settlement in South Africa. CVD risk was determined using the BMI-modified Framingham 10-year CVD risk formula. Results: Logistic regression analyses, adjusted for employment, alcohol use and physical activity, indicated that men reporting poor sleep quality (OR: 1.95[95 %CI: 1.07–3.51], p=0.025) and earlier bedtimes (0.54[0.39–0.74], p
