The Association Between Sleep and Metabolic Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Sleep duration is thought to play a key role in the development of metabolic syndrome. However, the results have been inconsistent.

Methods

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies and searched publications in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Clinicaltrials.gov. The summary relative risks (RRs) were estimated using a random model. The sensitivity analysis was performed by sequentially excluding each study to test the robustness of the pooled estimates.

Finding

We included 13 studies involving 300,202 patients in which short sleep and long sleep significantly increased the risk of metabolic syndrome 15% (RR = 1.15, 95%CI = 1.09-1.22, p < 0.001) and 19% (RR = 1.19, 95%CI = 1.05-1.35, p < 0.001). More
