Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Antioxidants Contribute to Selected Sleep Quality and Cardiometabolic Health Relationships: A Cross-Sectional Study

Figure 1

Multiple regression method of the indirect mediation model [18]. Path indicates the path from sleep quality (exposure) to mediator (i.e., inflammation, oxidative stress, and antioxidant). Path indicates the path from mediator to outcome (i.e., metabolic syndrome (MetS), number of MetS components, and individual MetS components) controlling for the mediator. Path indicates the path from exposure to outcome. Path indicates the path from exposure to outcome controlling for the mediator.
