The association of sleep duration and type 2 diabetes in Korean male adults with abdominal obesity: the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005.

Abstract

We used data of 1652 male adults aged 20-60 years from KNHANES III. Short sleep duration was significantly associated with an increased prevalence of type 2 diabetes in Korean male adults without abdominal obesity (OR in sleep duration of <or=5 compared to 7h/day: 2.40 [95% CI, 1.18-4.91]).
