This study was conducted to identify the association between sleep duration and suicidal ideation among farmers in Korea.
We used Safety for Agricultural Injuries of Farmers cohort data collected from September 2015 to June 2018, which was an agricultural survey on the health and behaviors of adult farmers in Jeju island, Korea.
A total of 964 participants were included in the analysis, and 3.7% of them were identified with having suicidal ideation. The frequencies of average daily sleep duration of <6 h (short sleep), 6-8 h (normal sleep), and >8 h (long sleep) were 24.4%, 70%, and 5.6%, respectively. Multivariate analyses revealed that short sleep duration was significantly associated with suicidal ideation compared with normal sleep duration (odds ratio = 2.49, 95% confidence interval = 1.07-5.77).
Our findings suggest that short sleep duration in farmers result in higher suicidal ideation. Because individuals who have suicidal ideation often commit suicide, careful monitoring is required to prevent suicide in farmers with short sleep duration.
本研究旨在确定韩国农民的睡眠时间与自杀意念之间的关联。
我们使用了2015年9月至2018年6月收集的农民农业伤害安全队列数据,该数据是对韩国济州岛成年农民的健康和行为进行的一项农业调查。
共有964名参与者纳入分析,其中3.7%被确定有自杀意念。平均每日睡眠时间<6小时(短睡眠)、6 - 8小时(正常睡眠)和>8小时(长睡眠)的频率分别为24.4%、70%和5.6%。多变量分析显示,与正常睡眠时间相比,短睡眠时间与自杀意念显著相关(比值比 = 2.49,95%置信区间 = 1.07 - 5.77)。
我们的研究结果表明,农民的短睡眠时间会导致更高的自杀意念。由于有自杀意念的个体经常自杀,因此需要对短睡眠时间的农民进行仔细监测以预防自杀。
