| Summary: | It is increasingly thought that sleep is a lifestyle factor that contributes to hypertension. However, the correlation between sleep duration and hypertension in the Chinese population remains largely unexplored. This study utilized data from the 2009 China Health and Nutrition Survey to investigate the correlation between sleep duration and hypertension. Average hours of sleep per day were grouped into following categories: ≤6, 7-9, and ≥10 h. The frequency of hypertension and odds ratio (OR) were computed across different sleep duration categories. Individuals sleeping 7-9 h per day were designated as the control group. Logistic regression was utilized for multivariate analysis. Among the 9435 participants, the mean sleep duration was 7.9±1.2 h. The prevalence of hypertension was 34.1, 21.7, and 29.3% for individuals sleeping ≤6, 7-9, and ≥10 h per day, respectively. Following adjustments for age, gender, body mass index, and diabetes, a significant association was observed between prolonged (≥10 h) sleep duration and hypertension. Compared to those sleeping 7-9 h per day, the OR for hypertension was 1.21 (95%CI: 1.02-1.43, P=0.03) for individuals sleeping ≥10 h per day. This study suggested that sleeping ≥10 h per day is associated with a higher risk of hypertension in adults. |
