Association Between Physical Activity Levels and Chronic Disease Risk Among Korean Adults with Sleep Deficiency.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: This study investigated the association between physical activity (PA) levels and the risk of chronic diseases in Korean adults with sleep deficiency (SD). Methods: Data were obtained from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016-2021; n = 31,338). SD was defined as less than 7 h of sleep per night. The PA levels were categorized as low, moderate, or high. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for various chronic diseases, adjusting for demographic and lifestyle covariates. Results: High PA levels were associated with lower odds of abdominal obesity (OR = 0.855, 95% CI = 0.782-0.934, p < 0.001), hypertension (OR = 0.787, 95% CI = 0.657-0.942
