Introduction:

Self-reported outcomes are considered to be useful to understand physical and mental conditions in daily life. Sleep quality is an important factor related to healthy lifestyle and work productivity, as well as to diseases. We examined the relationship of sleep condition with lifestyle and diseases based on self-reported sleep.

Methods:

A Japanese employee-based health insurance claims database with annual medical check-up data was used. Individuals were questioned about sleep quality as: “Do you get enough rest by sleeping?” during the medical check-up. The prevalence of diseases and medical check-up data were compared between those who answered “Yes” or “No”.

Results:

Among 1,310,157 individuals who answered about sleep quality, 540,564 (41.3 percent) answered “No”. The female ratio was around 38 percent for both answers, and the average age was lower for those who answered “No” (45.3) than “Yes” (47.3). Matched individuals for same examination year, sex, and age were 536,218 in each group. Individuals diagnosed with sleep disorder were 8.7 percent of those who answered “No”, representing the highest relative risk (RR=1.64), followed by other anxiety disorders (RR = 1.47), and depressive episode (RR = 1.45), with statistical significance. Other diseases diagnosed in more than 200,000 patients, and which had significantly higher RRs in patients who answered “No”, included vasomotor and allergic rhinitis (RR = 1.09), disorders of refraction and accommodation (RR =1.02), acute upper respiratory infections (RR = 1.11), gastritis and duodenitis (RR = 1.17), and acute bronchitis (RR = 1.13). The RR of other diseases of the liver (RR = 1.13), diabetes (RR = 1.12), hypertension (RR = 1.08), and disorders of lipoprotein metabolism and other lipidaemias (RR = 1.06) were also significantly higher for those who answered “No”.

Conclusions:

Sleep quality is suggested to be associated with various chronic diseases as well as mental disorders. Therefore, self-reported outcomes should be a useful tool to understand health-condition, prevent the onset and progression of diseases, and evaluate patient-centered care.
