Among individuals &lt;65 years old, short sleep (\u22645 hr) during weekends at baseline was associated with a 52% higher mortality rate (hazard ratios 1.52; 95% confidence intervals 1.15\u20132.02) compared with the reference group (7 hr), while no association was observed for long (\u22659 hr) weekend sleep. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stressforskning.su.se\/english\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Fullscreen-capture-5282018-113222-AM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"461\" height=\"277\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-60141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Fullscreen-capture-5282018-113222-AM.jpg 461w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Fullscreen-capture-5282018-113222-AM-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Fullscreen-capture-5282018-113222-AM-122x74.jpg 122w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Fullscreen-capture-5282018-113222-AM-150x90.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When, instead, different combinations of weekday and weekend sleep durations were analysed, we observed a detrimental association with consistently sleeping \u22645 hr (hazard ratios 1.65; 95% confidence intervals 1.22\u20132.23) or \u22658 hr (hazard ratios 1.25; 95% confidence intervals 1.05\u20131.50), compared with consistently sleeping 6\u20137 hr per day (reference). The mortality rate among participants with short sleep during weekdays, but long sleep during weekends, did not differ from the rate of the reference group. Among individuals \u226565 years old, no association between weekend sleep or weekday\/weekend sleep durations and mortality was observed. In conclusion, short, but not long, weekend sleep was associated with an increased mortality in subjects &lt;65 years. In the same age group, short sleep (or long sleep) on both weekdays and weekend showed increased mortality. Possibly, long weekend sleep may compensate for short weekday sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stockholm, Sweden&#8230;..Previous studies have found a U\u2010shaped relationship between mortality and (weekday) sleep duration.
