Abstract
BACKGROUND Different levels of association between snoring, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus (DM) are reported. There are few published studies on this topic in African countries, and no investigation was conducted in Sudan. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and factors associated with snoring and the association between snoring, hypertension, and type 2 DM (T2DM) in northern Sudan. METHODS A community-based cross-sectional study using a multistage sampling technique was conducted in four villages in the River Nile state of northern Sudan from July to September 2021. Sociodemographic characteristics were collected using a questionnaire. Body mass index (BMI) was measured using standard methods, and a multivariate analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences® (SPSS®) for Windows, version 22.0. RESULTS Of the 384 adults, 193 (50.3%) were males and 191 (49.7%) were females. Of the adults, 38 (9.9%) were underweight, 121 (31.5%) had average weight, 113 (29.4%) were overweight, and 112 (29.2%) were obese. One hundred and six (27.6%) adults were snorers. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01‒1.04), increasing BMI (AOR = 1.04, 95 CI = 1.01‒1.08), obesity (AOR = 2.0, 95% CI = 1.10‒3.69), and alcohol consumption (AOR = 2.32, 95% CI = 1.14‒4.74) were positively associated with snoring. Of the 384 adults, 215 (56.0%) had hypertension. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (AOR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.02‒1.06), increasing BMI (AOR = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.04‒1.13), female sex (AOR = 1.7, 95% CI = 1.08‒2.73), and snoring (AOR = 1.69, 95% CI = 1.02‒2.82) were positively associated with hypertension. One hundred and six (27.6%) adults had T2DM. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (AOR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.01‒1.05) and snoring (AOR = 1.78, 95% CI = 1.09‒2.91) were associated with T2DM. CONCLUSION Around one-fourth of the adults in Northern Sudan are snorers. Snoring is more common among obese adults. Snoring is associated with increased odds of hypertension and T2DM. Adults who snore must pay close attention to their blood pressure and blood glucose levels to prevent hypertension and DM.

Abstract
Maternal poor sleep quality may increase blood pressure during pregnancy, but sound evidence is still limited and inconsistent. To evaluate whether sleep disturbances in early gestation are risk factors for the development of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, we conducted the Early Life Plan Project from June 2016 to December 2019. Maternal sleep patterns were assessed at 12-16 weeks of gestation by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index questionnaire. For gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, we estimated adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using multinomial logistic regression models adjusting for potential confounders. Among 5,532 eligible women, we observed that maternal blood pressure in early gestation was significantly higher in women with low sleep efficiency (≤85%), long sleep duration (≥9 hours/night), and snoring. Compared with nonsnorers, snoring in early gestation was independently associated with preeclampsia (OR = 1.72 (95% CI: 1.09, 2.73) for snoring once or twice per week; OR = 2.06 (95% CI: 1.01, 4.31) for snoring 3 or more times per week), particularly for term preeclampsia (OR = 1.79 (95% CI: 1.08, 2.95) and 2.26 (95% CI: 1.03, 4.95), respectively). Results suggest that snoring in early gestation may be a significant risk factor for preeclampsia, with a dose-response pattern.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inadequate sleep behaviors may confer a higher risk of premature death, however, evidence in patients with chronic noncommunicable disease (NCD) is scarce. To investigate the relationship between sleep duration and mortality from all-cause and heart diseases in NCD patients from a prospective cohort. METHODS Totally, 14,171 participants with at least one NCD, including 8275 with hypertension, 7547 with high cholesterol, 4065 with diabetes, and 5815 with chronic renal failure were enrolled from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey during 2005-2014. Cox proportional hazard models were performed to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) for sleep duration and mortality after adjusting for potential confounding factors. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 9 years, 2514 all-cause deaths were identified. Compared with sleeping 7-8 h/day, sleeping over 8 h/day was significantly associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality, where the multivariable-HRs were 1.29 (1.11, 1.50) for hypertension, 1.23 (1.01, 1.51) for high cholesterol, 1.44 (1.13, 1.82) for diabetes, and 1.36 (1.10, 1.68) for chronic renal failure. Similar patterns were observed for heart disease mortality. A nonlinear association was detected between sleep duration and mortality in patients with NCD. Age modified the association in patients with hypertension (P-interaction: 0.036). Trouble sleeping modified the association in patients with diabetes (P-interaction: 0.042). CONCLUSIONS Long sleep duration was associated with higher risks of all-cause and heart disease mortality in patients with chronic NCD. Our findings highlight that improving sleep behaviors may decrease the risk of premature deaths and help to NCD tertiary prevention.

Development and Validation of a Prognostic Model to Predict High-Risk Patients for Coronary Heart Disease in Snorers With Uncontrolled Hypertension. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:777946. [PMID: 35528833 PMCID: PMC9069207 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.777946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
PurposeSnoring or obstructive sleep apnea, with or without uncontrolled hypertension, is common and significantly increases the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). The aim of this study was to develop and validate a prognostic model to predict and identify high-risk patients for CHD among snorers with uncontrolled hypertension.MethodsRecords from 1,822 snorers with uncontrolled hypertension were randomly divided into a training set (n = 1,275, 70%) and validation set (n = 547, 30%). Predictors for CHD were extracted to construct a nomogram model based on multivariate Cox regression analysis. We performed a single-split verification and 1,000 bootstraps resampling internal validation to assess the discrimination and consistency of the prediction model using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and calibration plots. Based on the linear predictors, a risk classifier for CHD could be set.ResultsAge, waist circumference (WC), and high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C and LDL-C) were extracted as the predictors to generate this nomogram model. The C-index was 0.720 (95% confidence interval 0.663–0.777) in the derivation cohort and 0.703 (0.630–0.776) in the validation cohort. The AUC was 0.757 (0.626–0.887), 0.739 (0.647–0.831), and 0.732 (0.665–0.799) in the training set and 0.689 (0.542–0.837), 0.701 (0.606–0.796), and 0.712 (0.615–0.808) in the validation set at 3, 5, and 8 years, respectively. The calibration plots showed acceptable consistency between the probability of CHD-free survival and the observed CHD-free survival in the training and validation sets. A total of more than 134 points in the nomogram can be used in the identification of high-risk patients for CHD among snorers with uncontrolled hypertension.ConclusionWe developed a CHD risk prediction model in snorers with uncontrolled hypertension, which includes age, WC, HDL-C, and LDL-C, and can help clinicians with early and quick identification of patients with a high risk for CHD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship between self-reported snoring and hyperuricaemia in a large-scale population in Chongqing, China. SETTING Face-to-face electronic questionnaire survey, physical examination and biological sample testing were conducted in 13 districts of Chongqing. Chongqing is a municipality in southwest China. PARTICIPANTS In this study, 23 308 Han ethnicity permanent residents aged 30-79 years were recruited. Individuals missing data were excluded, 22 389 subjects were included in final analysis. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Serum uric acid (UA) was measured using an oxidase method. Hyperuricaemia was defined as serum UA >420 µmol/L in men and >360 µmol/L in women. Information about self-reported snoring was obtained by questionnaire survey. All participants were divided into 'no snoring' 'snoring occasionally' and 'snoring frequently'. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the relationship between self-reported snoring and hyperuricaemia. RESULTS The prevalence of hyperuricaemia was 14.43%, and snorers were more likely to have hyperuricaemia than non-snorer in different age and gender groups. For the total population, those who snore occasionally or frequently were more likely to be hyperuricaemia (OR 1.19, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.31; OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.19 to 1.47) compared with no snoring people. Stratification by age, gender and body mass index (BMI), we found that the positive association between snoring frequently and hyperuricaemia was insisted in different age, gender and high BMI groups, and the strength of association varied with different age, gender and BMI category. CONCLUSION Snoring frequency was positively associated with higher risk of hyperuricaemia. Snoring frequently may be a signal for hyperuricaemia, especially for women, those over 59 years of age, or those who are overweight or obese.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to summarize the evidence for the association between snoring and hypertension and the effect of snoring on hypertension in men and/or women. METHODS We searched the articles in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Embase published up to 12 November 2020 to evaluate the association between snoring and hypertension. Studies were selected according to the predefined screening criteria and their qualities were assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Evaluation Scale. The odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were used as effective indicators. It was registered in PROSPERO with the number: CRD42021224912. RESULTS According to the inclusion/exclusion criteria, 11 studies including eight prospective cohort studies and three cross-sectional studies were included. The results showed that compared with non-snoring participants, snoring significantly increased the risk of hypertension in both men and women [odds ratio (OR) = 1.32, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.23-1.42; men: odds ratio (OR) = 1.32; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.18-1.49; women: odds ratio (OR) = 1.26; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.14-1.40]. Besides, the risk of hypertension was significantly increased when the snoring frequency was ≥4 nights/week [frequency≥4 nights/week: odds ratio (OR) = 1.42; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.21-1.66; 4 nights/week >frequency>0: odds ratio (OR) = 1.23; 95% confidence interval (CI),1.13-1.34]. CONCLUSIONS Snoring is considered as an independent predictor of hypertension in both men and women, which may play a role in the prevention and control of hypertension. People who snore frequently should pay close attention to their blood pressure levels to prevent hypertension.

Abstract
Background In 2003, the JNC 7 reported obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) as a cause of secondary hypertension. The prevalence of OSA in hypertension ranges from 30-80%. There are limited data on the prevalence and risk factors of OSA in hypertensive patients. This study thus aimed to evaluate prevalence and clinical predictors of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in these patients. Methods This was a cross-sectional study and conducted at the hypertension clinic at Khon Kaen University’s Srinagarind Hospital, Thailand. We enrolled patients with hypertension treated at the clinic. OSA was defined as apnea-hypopnea index of 5 events/hour or over according to cardiopulmonary monitoring. Patients whose hypertension was due to any other causes were excluded. The prevalence of OSA was calculated and risk factors for OSA were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. Results There were 726 hypertensive patients treated at the clinic. Out of those, 253 (34.8%) were randomly studied and categorized as either non-OSA (147 patients, 58.1%) or OSA (106 patients, 41.9%). There were four independent factors associated with OSA-induced hypertension: age, sex, history of snoring, and history of headache. Headache had an adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval) of 3.564 (95% confidence interval of 1.510, 8.411). Conclusion Age, male sex, history of snoring, and headache were independent predictors of hypertension caused by OSA.
