Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals for daytime sleep and chronic diseases stratified by prevalent hypertension.

aType 2 diabetes, myocardial infarction, stroke or cancer, whichever occurs first.bStratified by age and adjusted for sex.cAdditionally adjusted for sleeping disorders (yes/no), sleep duration at night (0–12 g/d, >12–24 g/d, >24 g/d; women: >0–6 g/d, >6–12 g/d, >12 g/d), smoking status (never, former, current), walking, cycling, sports (hours/week), employment status (employed vs. unemployed), and education (technical school or lower degree vs. university of applied sciences or university degree).dAdjusted for the variables in model 2 plus BMI (kg/m2), waist-to-hip ratio, and history of high blood lipid levels at baseline (yes/no).eModel 3 for cancer includes the same covariates as models for type 2 diabetes, myocardial infarction and stroke, except history of high blood lipid levels at baseline (yes/no).
