Adjustments were made for OSAS, age, gender, and BMI in all models, and additionally for smoking status in HT and for smoking status and educational status in CHD.
For duration of sleep, 7-8 hours was considered as the reference category.
Significant findings are marked in bold type.
HT: hypertension, DM: diabetes mellitus, CHD: coronary heart disease, and OSAS: obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
