WESTCHESTER, Ill. – A study published in the May 1 issue of the journal SLEEP is the first known to report that short and long sleepers are more likely to have metabolic syndrome, or a combination of medical disorders that increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
The study, authored by Martica H. Hall, PhD, associate professor of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and colleagues, focused on 1,214 adults between 30-54 years of age.
According to the results, the odds for having the metabolic syndrome increased by more than 45 percent in both short and long sleepers. Short sleep duration was common, with 20 percent of the sample reporting sleep durations of less than six hours per night. In contrast, only eight percent of the sample reported sleep durations of longer than eight hours per night.
“This relationship was strongest in the group of men and women who slept less than six hours per night. On average, the odds of having the metabolic syndrome were nearly doubled in men and women who slept less than six hours, compared to those who slept between seven and eight hours per night,” said Dr. Hall.
Experts recommend that adults get between seven and eight hours of nightly sleep.
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) offers the following tips on how to get a good night’s sleep:
-Follow a consistent bedtime routine.
-Establish a relaxing setting at bedtime.
-Get a full night’s sleep every night.
-Avoid foods or drinks that contain caffeine, as well as any medicine that has a stimulant, prior to bedtime.
-Do not bring your worries to bed with you.
-Do not go to bed hungry, but don’t eat a big meal before bedtime either.
-Avoid any rigorous exercise within six hours of your bedtime.
-Make your bedroom quiet, dark and a little bit cool.
-Get up at the same time every morning.
Those who suspect that they might be suffering from a sleep disorder are encouraged to consult with their primary care physician or a sleep specialist.

睡眠时间与代谢综合征发生相关
WEST CHESTER, Ill. – A study published in the May 1 issue of the journal SLEEP is the first known to report that short and long sleepers are more likely to have metabolic syndrome, or a combination of medical disorders that increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
WEST CHESTER, Ill. – 一项发表在五月一日《睡眠》杂志的研究,据知是第一次报道了睡眠时间长或短的人更容易有代谢综合征或合并机能紊乱,增加进展为心血管疾病的风险。
The study, authored by Martica H. Hall, PhD, associate professor of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and colleagues, focused on 1,214 adults between 30-54 years of age.
这项研究由匹兹堡大学医学院医学分校的精神病学副教授Martica H. Hall, PhD负责,研究纳入了1214名在30至54岁的成人。
According to the results, the odds for having the metabolic syndrome increased by more than 45 percent in both short and long sleepers. Short sleep duration was common, with 20 percent of the sample reporting sleep durations of less than six hours per night. In contrast, only eight percent of the sample reported sleep durations of longer than eight hours per night.
根据研究结果,睡眠时间长和短的人患代谢综合征的机率都增加了45%多。睡眠时间短是普遍现象,20%的参与者称睡眠时间少于6小时每晚。相反,仅有8%的参与者被报告睡眠时间多于8小时每晚。
“This relationship was strongest in the group of men and women who slept less than six hours per night. On average, the odds of having the metabolic syndrome were nearly doubled in men and women who slept less than six hours, compared to those who slept between seven and eight hours per night,” said Dr. Hall.
“在睡眠时间少于6小时每晚的男性和女性组中,这种相关性非常强。平均起来,和那些睡眠时间在7至8小时每晚的参与者比较,少于6小时每晚的男性和女性患代谢综合征的机率是他们的近一倍,”Hall医生说。
Experts recommend that adults get between seven and eight hours of nightly sleep.
专家推荐成人每天应该有7至9小时的睡眠。
