Actigraphy Measured Sleep Indices and Adiposity: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA).

ABSTRACT: To investigate the cross-sectional relationship between objectively measured sleep characteristics and multiple indices of adiposity in racially/ethnically diverse older adults within the MESA Sleep study (n = 2,146).7-day actigraphy was used to assess sleep duration, sleep efficiency, and night-to-night variability. Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and total body fat were modeled continuously and according to obesity cut-points. Models were adjusted for demographic, socioeconomic, and behavioral variables.Participants who slept less than 6 hours a night had significantly higher BMI, waist circumference, and body fat relative to those who slept 7-8 hours. Those who slept less than 5 hours had a 16% higher prevalence of general obesity (BMI ? 30 vs. < 25 kg/m(2)) (95% [CI]: 0.08-0.24) and a 9% higher prevalence of abdominal obesity (waist circumference: women ? 88 centimeters, men ? 102 centimeters; 95% CI: 0.03-0.16) compared to those who slept 7-8 hours. Results were similar for sleep efficiency and night-to-night sleep variability.Among an older multi-ethnic cohort, we found robust associations across multiple indices of sleep and adiposity. Targeting sleep characteristics may be of benefit in obesity interventions, but more research is needed to rule out reverse causality.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:This study sought to compare various measures of adiposity with risk for incident hospitalized heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). BACKGROUND:Obesity is a risk factor for HF, particularly HFpEF. It is unknown which measures of adiposity, including anthropometrics and computed tomography (CT)-measured fat area, are most predictive of HF subtypes. METHODS:The authors studied 1,806 participants of the MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis) study without baseline cardiovascular disease who underwent anthropometrics (body mass index [BMI] and waist circumference) and an abdominal CT. Subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) were measured from a single CT slice at L2-L3. Cox hazard models were used to examine associations of adiposity with incident hospitalized HFpEF and HFrEF events. Fully adjusted models included demographics, HF risk factors, and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide. RESULTS:Over a mean follow-up of 11 years, there were 34 HFpEF and 36 HFrEF events. The fully adjusted hazard ratio (95% confidence interval [CI]) per 1-SD higher of each anthropometric and CT-measured adiposity measures for incident HFpEF were as follows: BMI HR: 1.66; 95% CI: 1.12 to 2.45; waist circumference HR: 1.59; 95% CI: 1.05 to 2.40; and VAT HR: 2.24; 95% CI: 1.44 to 3.49. None of these adiposity measures were associated with HFrEF. Even among overweight/obese adults (BMI ?25 kg/m2), assessment of VAT (per 1-SD) was strongly associated with HFpEF (HR: 2.78; 95% CI: 1.62 to 4.76). Subcutaneous adipose tissue was neither associated with HFpEF nor HFrEF. CONCLUSIONS:In a multiethnic cohort free of cardiovascular disease, CT-measured VAT was independently associated with incident hospitalized HFpEF but not HFrEF. Measuring visceral fat at the time of CT imaging for other indications may offer additional prognostication of HF risk. (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis [MESA]; NCT00005487).

Project description:RationaleObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been postulated to contribute to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis by promoting alveolar epithelial injury via tractional forces and intermittent hypoxia.ObjectivesTo determine whether OSA is associated with subclinical interstitial lung disease (ILD) and with biomarkers of alveolar epithelial injury and remodeling.MethodsWe performed cross-sectional analyses of 1,690 community-dwelling adults who underwent 15-channel in-home polysomnography and thoracic computed tomographic imaging in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. We measured the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index (oAHI) by polysomnography and high-attenuation areas (HAAs) and interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) by computed tomography. Serum matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) and surfactant protein-A (SP-A) were measured by ELISA in 99 participants. We used generalized linear models to adjust for potential confounders.ResultsThe mean age was 68 years, and the mean forced vital capacity was 97% predicted. The median oAHI was 8.4 events/h, and 32% had an oAHI greater than 15. After adjusting for demographics, smoking, and center, an oAHI greater than 15 was associated with a 4.0% HAA increment (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4-6.8%; P = 0.003) and 35% increased odds of ILA (95% CI, 13-61%; P = 0.001). However, there was evidence that these associations varied by body mass index (BMI) (P for interaction = 0.08 and 0.04, respectively). Among those with a BMI less than 25 kg/m2, an oAHI greater than 15 was associated with a 6.1% HAA increment (95% CI, 0.5-12%; P = 0.03) and 2.3-fold increased odds of ILA (95% CI, 1.3-4.1; P = 0.005). Among those with a BMI greater than 30 kg/m2, an oAHI greater than 15 was associated with 1.8-fold greater odds of ILA (95% CI, 1.1-2.9; P = 0.01) but was not associated with HAA. There were no meaningful associations detected among those with a BMI of 25-30 kg/m2. Greater oAHI was associated higher serum SP-A and MMP-7 levels, particularly among those with a BMI less than 25 kg/m2.ConclusionsModerate to severe OSA is associated with subclinical ILD and with evidence of alveolar epithelial injury and extracellular matrix remodeling in community-dwelling adults, an association that is strongest among normal-weight individuals. These findings support the hypothesis that OSA might contribute to early ILD.
