Actigraphic sleep duration and fragmentation are related to obesity in the elderly: the Rotterdam Study
Abstract
Objective The epidemiological evidence for the association between sleep duration and obesity in the elderly is inconsistent and has not been investigated with objective measures. Furthermore, the role of sleep fragmentation in this relationship is unknown. Our aim was to investigate the association of sleep measures with body mass index (BMI) and obesity in a normal elderly population.Design Cross-sectional study.Subjects A total of 983 community-dwelling elderly (mean age 68.4+/-6.9 years, range, 57-97).Measurements Weight and height were measured, and sleep duration and fragmentation were assessed with on average six nights of actigraphy.Results A quadratic model adequately described the association between continuous measures of sleep duration and BMI. Actigraphic sleep duration had a significant U-shaped relationship with BMI (beta of quadratic term=0.30, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.08, 0.52). Both short sleepers (<5 h: OR, 2.76 (95% CI: 1.38, 5.49), 5 to <6 h: OR, 1.97 (95% CI: 1.26, 3.08)) and long sleepers (>or=8 h: OR, 2.93 (95% CI: 1.39, 6.16)) were more likely to be obese, compared to participants who slept 7 to <8 h. BMI increased with 0.59 kg m(-2) per standard deviation of sleep fragmentation (95% CI: 0.34, 0.84). After adjustment for sleep fragmentation, the association between short sleep and obesity was no longer significant. Exclusion of participants with probable sleep apnea only marginally changed these associations. Self-reported habitual sleep duration was not associated with BMI or obesity.Conclusions Sleep duration, as measured with actigraphy, had a U-shaped relationship with BMI and obesity in an elderly population. A highly fragmented sleep is associated with a higher BMI and a higher risk of obesity, and may explain why short sleep is related to obesity. To preclude bias that can be introduced by self-report measures of sleep duration, using multiple measures of sleep parameters is recommended in future research.

Four studies using objective measurements found a much stronger cross-sectional association than similar studies using self-reported data.
“In support of this hypothesis, four studies that performed objective measurements reported a much stronger cross-sectional association than other studies of similar cross-sectional design but using self-reported data [63, 125, 182, 190].”

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.
