Sleep Duration and Mortality in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
2019
Extremes in sleep duration are associated with higher cardiovascular risk in the general population, but their impact in patients with documented coronary artery disease (CAD) remains unknown and potentially of clinical significance. We hypothesized that both short and long sleep duration are associated with higher mortality in CAD. We inquired about sleep durations in 2,846 patients enrolled in the Emory Cardiovascular Biobank (mean age 64 years, 38% female, 23% Black, and 82% with obstructive CAD, defined by positive coronary angiography), who were then followed for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were calculated to examine the association of sleep duration and mortality. Sleep durations of
