Sleep disturbance is a major public health issue and is comorbid with the cluster of conditions associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Our study explored the presence of sleep disturbance, including daytime sleepiness, the risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and insomnia symptoms, in a cohort of adult Black men and women with MetS.
