Association between sleep quality and C-reactive protein: results from national health and nutrition examination survey, 2005-2008.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Our objective was to explore the association between poor sleep quality and hs_CRP in an adult U.S. population.

Methods

This study focused on 9,317 participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005-2008 who were aged 20-85 years, completed a sleep disorder questionnaire, and had available information on serum hs_CRP. Sleep quality was classified into three categories (good, moderate, poor) based on the responses of participants to the NHANES sleep disorder questionnaire. High CRP was defined as hs-CRP >1 md/dL. Linear regression model was applied to investigate the association between poor sleep quality and log-transformed hs_CRP. And logistic regression model was fitted to evaluate the association between sleep quality and the
