- Sleep duration, sample timing, and physical exercise affect blood levels of proteins used to assess cardiovascular risk in healthy young men.
- Morning-to-evening variation in proteomic profiles was observed.
- Exercise-induced protein level changes were noted.
- Short-term changes in sleep and activity can shift proteomic profiles linked to increased risks of heart failure, coronary artery disease, and atrial fibrillation.
- Recording sleep duration, recent physical activity, and sample timing is recommended to improve accuracy when interpreting cardiovascular biomarkers.
