Abstract: Objectives: This meta-analysis aims to assess the association between adult nap duration and risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of Science databases were searched to identify eligible studies. The quality of observational studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. We performed all statistical analyses using Stata software version 14.0. For the meta-analysis, we calculated hazard ratio (HR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). To assess publication bias, we used a funnel plot and Egger’s test. Results: A total of 21 studies involving 371,306 participants revealed varying methodological quality, from moderate to high. Those who indulged in daytime naps faced a significantly higher mortality risk than non-nappers (HR: 1.28; 95% CI: 1.18–1.38; I2 = 38.8%; P
