Abstract:
Objectives:To explore the independent and combined effects of sleep duration and physical activity(PA)on the incidence of cardiovascular disease(CVD).Methods:The study subjects were derived from three sub-cohorts of the China-PAR project.Information on sleep and PA was collected from the surveys conducted in 2007-2008,and the incidence and mortality data of CVD were obtained during the follow-up survey from 2012 to 2015.Sleep duration was categorized into≤6 h/d,>6-8 h/d,and>8 h/d,and the PA level was classified according to the tertiles of PA volume(MET-h/d).The Cox proportional hazards model stratified by cohort source was applied to estimate the associations of PA and sleep duration with CVD incidence,coronary heart disease(CHD)incidence,and stroke incidence.Results:A total of 93 933 participants were included.During an average follow-up of(5.82±0.98)years,3 862 CVD events were documented.Compared with the low PA group,the hazard ratios(HRs)and 95%confidence intervals(CIs)of the CVD incidence,CHD incidence,and stroke incidence for the high PA group were 0.73(0.65-0.82),0.62(0.49-0.77)and 0.88(0.76-1.01),respectively.A U-shaped relation between sleep duration and incidence of CVD and stroke was observed.Compared with those who slept for>6-8 h/d,the risk of CVD(HR[95%CI]:1.10[1.00-1.21],P=0.04)and stroke(HR[95%CI]:1.33[1.18-1.49],P<0.01)was higher among participants slept>8 h/d.The risk of CVD,CHD and stroke tended to be higher in the≤6 h/d sleep group.Compared with the high PA combined with>6-8 h/d,the risk of stroke was highest in the high PA combined with>8h/d sleep group(HR[95%CI]:1.74[1.37-2.22],P<0.05),while the risks of CVD(HR[95%CI]:1.69[1.39-2.04],P<0.05)and CHD(HR[95%CI]:1.99[1.41-2.81],P<0.05)were highest in the low PA combined with≤6 h/d sleep group.Conclusions:Adequate physical activity and appropriate sleep duration are associated with lower risk of morbidity from CVD,CHD and stroke.
