ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Sleep disturbance and insufficient sleep have been linked to metabolic syndrome, increasing cardiovascular disease and mortality risk. However, few studies investigate the joint effect of sleep and exercise on metabolic syndrome. We hypothesized that regular exercise can mitigate the exacerbation of metabolic syndrome by sleep insufficiency.Objective:
The aim of this study was to investigate whether exercise can attenuate or eliminate the relationship between sleep insufficiency and metabolic syndrome.Method:
A total of 6,289 adults (mean age = 33.96 years; women 74.81%) were included in the study, a cross-sectional study conducted based on the results of employee health screening questionnaires and databases from a large healthcare system in central Taiwan. Participants reported sleep insufficiency or not. Self-reported exercise habits were classified into 3 levels no exercise, exercise <150â min/week, and exercise â§150â min/week. Multiple logistic regression and sensitivity analyses were conducted to understand the joint associations of sleep patterns and exercise with metabolic syndrome with exposure variables combining sleep duration/disturbances and PA.Results:
Compared with the reference group (sufficient sleep), individuals with sleep insufficiency had a higher risk for metabolic syndrome [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.40, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.01-1.94, p < 0.05] in females aged 40-64 years, but not in other populations. Sleep insufficiency was not associated with the risk of metabolic syndrome among individuals achieving an exercise level of <150â min/week, and in particular among those achieving â§150â min/week in all populations in our study.Conclusion:
Sleep insufficiency was related to a higher risk of metabolic syndrome in female healthcare staff aged 40-64 years. Being physically active with exercise habits in these individuals, the risk of metabolic syndrome was no longer significant.
