PG - 380-386 LID - 10.7861/clinmed.2022-0442 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess whether poor sleep is independently associated with cardiovascular disease in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed in subjects with T2DM aged between 40 and 80 years. Sleep assessment was achieved by actigraphy and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score. RESULTS: The study population comprised 108 subjects with T2DM. The mean age was 64.9 years, the median diabetes duration was 6 years and 73.1% were men. No association was shown between sleep parameters as assessed by actigraphy and T2DM-associated micro- and macrovascular complications. However, sleep quality as assessed by PSQI was significantly associated with macrovascular disease in univariate analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed red blood cell distribution width (RDW) (odds ratio (OR) 1.79, p=0.018) and good sleep quality (OR 0.35, p=0.017) to be independently associated. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that body mass index (BMI) (OR 1.11, p=0.024), RDW (OR 1.95, p=0.007) and Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression score (OR 1.06, p=0.012] were independently associated with abnormal carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). CONCLUSIONS: Poor sleep quality and higher RDW levels are associated with macrovascular disease in a T2DM population. Increased BMI as well as depression also appear to have an independent role in subclinical atherosclerosis, as assessed by CIMT. CI - (c) Royal College of Physicians 2023. All rights reserved.
