The influence of lifestyle and health status factors on sleep loss among the Japanese general population
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between lifestyle, health status factors and sleep loss. DESIGN: A cross-sectional questionnaire survey conducted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, Japan. SETTING: N/A. PATIENTS OR PARTICIPANTS: Approximately 30,000 subjects selected from the general population in Japan. INTERVENTIONS: N/A. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: This study indicated that approximately 28% of the general population sleep less than 6 hours nightly and approximately 65% sleep less than 7 hours. However, approximately 80% of the population reported getting sufficient sleep. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that being females, being of younger age, living in an urban environment, being unemployed, and having an unhealthy lifestyle (i.e., lack of exercise, poor health status, and irregular eating habits) were associated with sleep loss. CONCLUSION: In this study, sleep loss was found to be associated with having an unhealthy lifestyle and being in poor general health. These findings suggest that health education and promotion of a healthy lifestyle should be advocated.

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.
