Abstract
The relationship between self-reported snoring, headache and cognitive complaints (memory and concentration problems) was evaluated in an ep idemiologic survey including 3,323 males, with a mean age of 63 (53-75 ) years. Fourteen potential confounders were examined. A strong associ ation between snoring and headache was found, persisting after correct ion for potential confounders. An association was found between snorin g and cognitive complaints only in those who reported good sleep quali ty without insomnia.
