Short Sleep Duration as a Risk Factor for Hypertension Analyses of the First National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey

TL;DR: Sleep durations of ≤5 hours per night were associated with a significantly increased risk of hypertension in subjects between the ages of 32 and 59 years, and controlling for the potential confounding variables only partially attenuated this relationship.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inadequate sleep as a risk factor for obesity : Analyses of the NHANES I

TL;DR: The hypothesis that sleep duration is associated with obesity in a large longitudinally monitored United States sample supports earlier experimental sleep studies and provides a basis for future studies on weight control interventions that increase the quantity and quality of sleep.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI

Ischemic Stroke Subtype Incidence Among Whites, Blacks, and Hispanics The Northern Manhattan Study

Journal ArticleDOI
