Resumen:
Study Objectives: To explore age differences in the relationship between sleep duration and mortality by conducting analyses stratified by age. Both short and long sleep durations have been found to be associated with mortality. Short sleep duration is associated with negative health outcomes, but there is little evidence that long sleep duration has adverse health effects. No epidemiologic studies have published multivariate analyses stratified by age, even though life expectancy is 75 years and the majority of deaths occur in the elderly. Design: Multivariate longitudinal analyses of the first National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey using Cox proportional hazards models. Setting: Probability sample (n = 9789) of the civilian noninstitutionalized population of the United States between 1982 and 1992. Participants: Subjects aged 32 to 86 years. Measurements and Results: In multivariate analyses controlling for many covariates, no relationship was found in middle-aged subjects
