  1. Linear mixed-effects models were used to examine the associations. Models were adjusted for age, sex, education, sleep duration, sleep fragmentation, vascular disease burden, vascular risk factors, and their interactions with time.
  2. SD standard deviation, SE standard error, IS interdaily stability, IV intradaily variability, M10 the average activity during the most active 10-h period, L5 the average activity during the least active 5-h period.
  3. aResults for 1-SD change.
  4. bResults for 1-SD ×1-year change.
