Associations of sleep quality with the skeletal muscle strength in patients with type 2 diabetes with poor glycemic control.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus are reported to be at a high risk for sarcopenia, and are known to have a poorer sleep quality. However, the association between sleep quality and skeletal muscle in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is not yet precisely understood.

Materials and methods

A total of 110 inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus aged 40-90 years were enrolled. The sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). Skeletal muscle mass was measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis. Muscle strength was evaluated by measuring the grip strength. We also performed dietary surveys and measurements of the plasma amino acid levels.

Results

A high total score on the PSQI was significantly associated with
