Abstract

It remains unclear how many hours of sleep are associated with the lowest risk of osteoporosis. This meta-analysis was performed to assess the dose-response relationship between sleep duration and risk of osteoporosis. PubMed and Web of Science were searched from inception to December 3, 2017, supplemented by manual searches of the bibliographies of retrieved articles. Data were pooled using fixed- and random-effects models. Restricted cubic spline analysis with four knots was used to model the sleep duration and osteoporosis association. Four cross-sectional studies with eight records were eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis. A U-shaped dose-response relationship was observed between sleep duration and risk of osteoporosis, with the lowest risk observed at a sleep duration category of 8-9 h per day. Compared with 8-h sleep duration per day, the pooled odds ratio for osteoporosis were 1.03 (95% CI 1.01-1.06) for each 1-h reduction among individuals with shorter sleep duration and 1.01 (95% CI 1.00-1.02) for each 1-h increment among individuals with longer sleep duration. Our dose-response meta-analysis shows a U-shaped relationship between sleep duration and risk of osteoporosis, with the lowest osteoporosis risk at about 8 h per day of sleep duration. Both short and long sleep duration is associated with a significantly increased risk of osteoporosis in the middle-aged and elderly adults, appropriate sleep duration could help for delay or prevention of osteoporosis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 April 2019.
All research outputs
#7,548,107
of 23,028,364 outputs
Outputs from Osteoporosis International
#1,384
of 3,672 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#132,468
of 331,163 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Osteoporosis International
#33
of 91 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,028,364 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,672 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.6. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 331,163 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 91 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its contemporaries.
