referenceD'Alessandro et al. (1990) conducted a case-control study identifying nightly snoring as a risk factor for myocardial infarction.
claimSleep-disordered breathing has been found in a high frequency of individuals with transient ischemic attacks (McArdle et al., 2003), hypertension (Morrell et al., 1999), myocardial infarction, and heart failure (Good et al., 1996; Shamsuzzaman et al., 2003).
measurementIn a 10-year observational study, patients with untreated severe obstructive sleep apnea (apnea-hypopnea index greater than 30) had a higher incidence of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events—including myocardial infarction, stroke, and coronary artery bypass surgery—compared to patients with similar severity who received CPAP treatment.
measurementMost case-control studies investigating the relationship between Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and myocardial infarction have found adjusted odds ratios of approximately 4.
referenceA 1990 case-control study published in the British Medical Journal identified snoring every night as a risk factor for myocardial infarction.
claimSleep loss and sleep complaints are associated with heart attacks (myocardial infarction) and potentially stroke, as evidenced by several large epidemiological studies and one case-control study.
claimEpidemiological studies associate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) with cardiovascular diseases, including arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and congestive heart failure.
measurementIn the Nurses Health Study, participants who slept five hours or less per night had a 45 percent increased risk of nonfatal and fatal heart attack (odds ratio [OR] = 1.45, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10–1.92) ten years after the 1996 baseline, after adjusting for age, BMI, smoking, and snoring.
claimSleep-disordered breathing is found in a high frequency of individuals with myocardial infarction and heart failure.
claimSeveral large epidemiological studies (Eaker et al., 1992; Qureshi et al., 1997; Schwartz et al., 1998; Newman et al., 2000; Ayas et al., 2003; et al., 2005; Bradley et al., 2005; Caples et al., 2005) and one case-control study (Liu et al., 2002) associate sleep loss and sleep complaints with heart attacks (myocardial infarction) and potentially stroke.
referenceBroughton R and Baron R published a study titled 'Sleep patterns in the intensive care unit and on the ward after acute myocardial infarction' in Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology in 1978 (Volume 45, Issue 3, pages 348–360).
referenceA 1990 study by Hung et al. found an association between sleep apnea and myocardial infarction in men.
referenceEaker ED, Pinsky J, and Castelli WP analyzed psychosocial predictors of myocardial infarction and coronary death among women in a 20-year follow-up of the Framingham Study.
referenceS.W. Schwartz and colleagues investigated whether sleep complaints are an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction.
claimA study investigated whether sleep complaints serve as an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction.

claimIn the Aggrastat-to-Zocor (A to Z) Trial, achieved levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) at 30 days and four months were independently associated with long-term survival and the risk of myocardial infarction (MI).
claimIn the Physicians’ Health Study, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) demonstrated similar predictive risk for future myocardial infarction.
claimIn the Physicians’ Health Study, individuals in the highest quartile of C-reactive protein (CRP) had three times the risk of a myocardial infarction and twice the risk of an ischemic stroke.
claimIn the Stabilization of Atherosclerotic Plaque by Initiation of Darapladib Therapy Trial (STABILITY) and the Stabilization of Plaques using Darapladib — Thrombosis in Myocardial Infarction 52 (SOLID-TIMI 52) trial, interleukin-6 (IL-6) was significantly and independently associated with incident cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and heart failure.
