Sleep patterns and long-term mortality among older Israeli adults: a population-based study by Lital Keinan-Boker, Yariv Gerber, Saar Ashri, Gali Cohen, Tal Hasin

“…Cox models were constructed to estimate the HRs for mortality associated with sleep patterns, defined according to night sleep duration (>8 vs ≤8 hours) and siesta (Y/N). Spline regression models were constructed to examine the linearity of the association across cognitive statuses.Results Sleep categories among participants (mean age 75; 53% women) included 291 (19.2%) with long night sleep and siesta, 139 (9.1%) with long night sleep and no siesta, 806 (53.1%) with short night sleep and siesta, and 283 (18.6%) with short night sleep and no siesta. …”

Oxidative stress and retinopathy: evidence from epidemiological studies by Xiangliang Liu, Yu Chang, Yuguang Li, Yingrui Liu, Wei Song, Jin Lu, Naifei Chen, Jiuwei Cui

“…Weighted logistic regression was used to assess the association between OBS and retinopathy in the overall, diabetic, and non-diabetic populations, and Cox proportional hazards models evaluated the link between OBS and all-cause mortality in those with retinopathy. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis explored the dose-response relationship between OBS and retinopathy. …”
