Sex-specific association of sleep duration with subclinical indicators of metabolic diseases among asymptomatic adults

Abstract: Background Accumulating evidence suggests sleep duration may be involved in metabolic regulation. However, studies regarding the association with the early stage of the metabolic disease are limited, and the findings were inconsistent. Methods A study among 4922 asymptomatic adults was conducted based on a Chinese national survey in 2009. The early stage of metabolic diseases was evaluated using three proxies: triglyceride to high-density lipoprote… Show more

“…39 Sex differences have been reported in the associations between sleep duration and adverse health consequences, which may be attributed to sex-specific hormonal and behavioral differences. 40,41 In this study, we detected significant interactions between sleep duration and sex for virus shedding duration. Sleeping <6 h prolonged virus shedding duration in males but not in females, and in patients sleeping <6 h, males presented with a longer virus shedding duration than females.…”

“…Disorders of glycolipid metabolism are important mechanisms in the development of hypertension. Patients with sleep disorders often have abnormalities in their nervous and endocrine systems, such as sympathetic nerves and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, which affect the secretion of appetite-regulating hormones and cortisol in the body, thereby reducing the insulin sensitivity of the tissues [38,39] A decrease in glucose utilization causes an increase in the levels of late-phase glycosylation end-products [40], which increase the extracellular matrix area through protein adhesion [41]. The connected collagen is less susceptible to hydrolytic turnover, leading to thickening and sclerosis of the vascular wall [42], which triggers hypertension by decreasing vascular compliance.…”
