These findings remained significant even after adjusting for obesity-related factors like waist girth [4], [5], [6].

claimThe association between sleep loss and diabetes is independent of obesity, as adjustment for waist girth did not alter the significance of the findings in the Sleep Heart Health Study.
claimAdults with sleep times of 9 hours or more showed increased likelihood of diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance in the Sleep Heart Health Study, a finding consistent with the Nurses Health Study (Gottlieb et al., 2005).

measurementIn the Sleep Heart Health Study, middle-aged and older adults who reported 6 hours of sleep per night were about 1.7 times more likely to have diabetes compared to those who slept 7 to 8 hours per night.
measurementIn the Sleep Heart Health Study, middle-aged and older adults who reported 5 hours of sleep or less were 2.5 times more likely to have diabetes compared to those who slept 7 to 8 hours per night.
