Sleep-disordered breathing increases mortality in patients with diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Study objectives

Sleep-disordered breathing and diabetes mellitus (DM) are often concomitant; however, data on the impact of sleep-disordered breathing on mortality in the population with diabetes remain scarce.

Methods

The population from the Sleep Heart Health Study, a multicenter prospective observational study representing 5,780 patients with polysomnography and mortality data, including 453 patients with DM, was analyzed to assess the impact of sleep-disordered breathing variables and the presence of DM on all-cause, cardiovascular disease, and noncardiovascular disease associated mortality. Survival analysis and proportional hazard regression models were used to calculate the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for mortality.

Results

Patients with DM and the average o
