Abstract

Background Numerous studies have suggested the relationship between sleep duration and risks of stroke mortality and morbidity, however, the effect estimates varied substantially across studies and it remains unknown how many hours of habitual sleep are associated with the lowest risk of stroke outcomes. Therefore, we performed a dose-response meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies to evaluate the relation of sleep duration with risk of total mortality and stroke events.Methods PubMed and Embase databases were searched through January 2016, and multivariate-adjusted relative risks were pooled by using fixed-effects models. Semiparametric and dose-response methods were used to assess the relationship of sleep duration and risk of stroke and stroke mortality.Results Eleven articles with 16 independent reports were included in our meta-analysis. An approximate J-shaped relationship was detected between sleep duration and risk of stroke and stroke mortality. No evidence of a curve linear relationship was seen between sleep duration and risk of stroke or stroke mortality. Compared with 7-h sleep duration per day, the pooled relative risks for stroke events were 1.07 (95% CI 1.02-1.12) for each 1-h shorter sleep duration among individuals who slept <7h per day and 1.17 (1.14-1.20) for each 1-h increase of sleep duration among individuals with longer sleep duration and the pooled RR for stroke mortality was 1.17 (95% CI 1.13-1.20) per 1-h increase of sleep duration.Conclusions Both short and long duration of sleep are predictors of stroke outcomes, and long sleep duration is significant marker of stroke mortality.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
