Association of sleep duration and sleep quality with hypertension in oil workers in Xinjiang

Abstract

Objective The aim of this study is to explore sleep status and hypertension among oil workers in Xinjiang, China. It may provide new ideas and basis for the precise prevention and treatment of hypertension in occupational population. Methods Sleep status and hypertension were investigated in 3,040 workers by a multi-stage cluster sampling method in six oil field bases in Karamay City, Xinjiang. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to evaluate the sleep status of workers. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between sleep duration and sleep quality, and hypertension. Stratified analysis was also performed. Results Our results show: 1. Insufficient sleep duration (OR = 1.51, 95% CI [1.19–1.90]) and poor sleep quality (OR = 1.78, 95% CI [1.33–2.38] were positively associated with hypertension. 2. Stratified analysis indicated insufficient sleep duration was associated with increased risk of hypertension in females (OR = 1.54, 95% CI [1.16–2.04]) than males (OR = 1.49, 95% CI [1.00–2.23]), and the risk of hypertension in the group <30 years old (OR = 9.03, 95% CI [2.32–35.15]) was higher than that in the group of 30–45 years old (OR = 1.59, 95% CI [1.14–2.20]). However, in the group > 45 years old, sleeping > 8 h was associated with increased risk of hypertension (OR = 3.36, 95% CI [1.42–7.91]). Oil workers doing shift work had a higher risk of hypertension (OR = 1.55, 95% CI [1.16–2.07]) to no shift work (OR = 1.48, 95% CI [1.02–2.15]). The risk of hypertension in the group with < 10 years of service (OR = 4.08, 95% CI [1.92–8.83]) was higher than that in the group with length of service of 10–20 years (OR = 2.79, 95% CI [1.59–4.86]). Poor sleep quality was associated with risk for hypertension in females (OR = 1.78, 95% CI [1.26–2.49]), those doing shift work (OR = 1.70, 95% CI [1.17–2.47]), those with length of service of > 20 years (OR = 1.64, 95% CI [1.18–2.27]). The risk of hypertension in the group 30–45 years old is higher than that in the group > 45 years old (OR 30–45 years old = 1.71, 95% CI [1.10–2.66]; OR > 45 years old = 1.60, 95% CI [1.09–2.34]). Conclusion Insufficient sleep duration and poor sleep quality are the potential factors affecting hypertension in Xinjiang oil workers.

Association between Sleep Duration and Hypertension among Adults in Southwest China

“…Our study concluded that insufficient sleep was associated with an increased risk of hypertension, which was consistent with the results of most previous studies [1,2,3,6,7,8,[12][13][14][15]. However, our results demonstrated that participants with only a short (<6 h/day) sleep duration had a greater risk of hypertension, while a long (>8 h/day) sleep duration did not significantly increase the risk of hypertension.…”

“…However, there have been clear discrepancies among the findings of these studies. Certain studies found that both short and long sleep durations were associated with an increased risk of hypertension [1,2,13,14], while several studies only identified a short sleep duration as associated with an increased risk of hypertension [3,6,7,8,12,15], and yet other studies denied this association [5,11,17]. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the association between self-reported sleep duration and hypertension among adults in southwest China.…”

Faktor-Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Kejadian Hipertensi pada Pekerja : Literature Review

“…Berdasarkan hasil pencarian, literature review sudah dilakukan telaah 20 artikel jurnal terkait faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi kejadian hipertensi terhadap pekerja. Hasil telaah menunjukan bahwa salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi peningkatan tekanan darah adalah durasi tidur (9). Hasil penelitian yang dilakukan pada tahun 2019 juga memberikan gambaran bahwa ada hubungan antara durasi tidur yang tidak normal serta ketegangan kerja dapat menyebabkan hipertensi (10).…”

Meta-Analysis: Effects of Night Shift Work on Hypertension and Sleep Patterns in Factory Workers

“…Based on the primary research used, 2 measurements were used to measure sleep patterns of workers, namely PSQI and AIS. Poor sleep patterns such as the habit of waking up during sleep, short sleep dura-tion and poor sleep quality can have an impact on increasing the risk of hypertension, this can be exacerbated if you are a shift worker, especially the night shift (Yang et al, 2021). Night shifts can affect sleep patterns and disrupt circadian rhythms.…”
