Abstract
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the joint association of asthma and sleep duration with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality risk.</p>
METHODS: This prospective cohort study included 366,387 participants from the UK Biobank. The participants were divided into three groups based on their sleep duration (short: <7 h/d; referent: 65+ years: 7-8 h/d; ages 39-64 years: 7-9 h/d; and long: 65+ years: >8 h/d; ages 39-64 years: >9 h/d). Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine the association between asthma and sleep duration on CVD and all-cause mortality.</p>
RESULTS: Participants with asthma and short sleep duration showed increased risk of CVD (hazard ratio [HR] 1.42; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.34-1.51) and all-cause mortality (HR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.17-1.36), compared with participants with no asthma in the referent sleep duration group. We documented significant additive interactions between asthma and short sleep duration in relation to CVD (relative excess risk due to interaction [RERI], 0.13; 95% CI, 0.04-0.23) and all-cause mortality (RERI, 0.12; 95% CI, 0.01-0.23).</p>
CONCLUSIONS: Asthma and short sleep duration may have additive interactions on CVD and all-cause mortality risk, highlighting the importance of controlling asthma in combination with improving sleep duration.</p>
