The aim of this study was to investigate the association between sleep duration and dizziness in a representative Korean population.
We analyzed data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (2010-2012). A total of 12,499 adults who completed otolaryngologic examinations were evaluated.
Both men and women with severely short sleep duration (≤ 5 hours) and severely long sleep duration (≥ 9 hours) tended to have higher dizziness prevalence. However, the adjusted odds ratio (OR) for sleep duration was only significant in women with dizziness after adjusting for confounders. Compared to that in an optimal sleep group (6-8 hr/day), the OR (95% confidence interval) for dizziness prevalence after adjusting for age and health behaviors (body mass index, smoking habit, alcohol consumption, level of exercise, metabolic syndrome, and tinnitus) was 1.473 (1.194-1.818) for the severely short sleep group (≤ 5 hr/day) and 1.472 (1.078-2.009) for the severely long sleep group (≥ 9 hr/day) only in women.
In the Korean population, dizziness was associated with shorter or longer sleep durations only among women. Further epidemiologic and experimental studies are necessary to clarify the impact of dizziness on sleep disorders.
本研究旨在调查韩国代表性人群中睡眠时长与头晕之间的关联。
我们分析了韩国国家健康和营养检查调查（2010-2012 年）的数据。共评估了 12499 名完成耳鼻喉科检查的成年人。
无论男性还是女性，严重的短睡眠时间（≤5 小时）和长睡眠时间（≥9 小时）都与更高的头晕患病率相关。然而，在调整了混杂因素后，只有女性的睡眠时长与头晕之间的调整后优势比（OR）具有统计学意义。与最佳睡眠组（6-8 小时/天）相比，调整年龄和健康行为（体重指数、吸烟习惯、饮酒、运动水平、代谢综合征和耳鸣）后，严重短睡眠时间组（≤5 小时/天）和严重长睡眠时间组（≥9 小时/天）的头晕患病率的调整后 OR（95%置信区间）分别为 1.473（1.194-1.818）和 1.472（1.078-2.009），仅在女性中如此。
在韩国人群中，头晕与睡眠时间较短或较长仅在女性中相关。需要进一步进行流行病学和实验研究，以阐明头晕对睡眠障碍的影响。
