Objectives: Type 2 diabetes and the health problems associated with type 2 diabetes threaten the health of the people in Taiwan. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between subjective and objective sleep quality on glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: This study used a purpose sampling and cross-sectional study design to recruit type 2 diabetes patients from an outpatient endocrinology and metabolism clinic at a medical center in central Taiwan. A total of 61 patients completed questionnaires and were followed for 1 year. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) measurements and wrist actigraphy (Somnowatch) measures for 72 h (24 h * 3 days) were collected. Glycemic control was followed for 1 year by reviewing the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) data in medical records. The SPSS 17.0 software package was used for statistical analysis. Results: The results showed poor glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes, with an average HbA1c of 7.9±1.6% and a fasting glucose value (AC sugar) of 162.1±45.4 mg/dl. The majority of patients (72.2%) had poor glycemic control (HbA1c> 7.0%). The subjective sleep quality was poor, with a global PSQI score of 6.6±4.1; 57.4% of patients had a PSQI score > 5. The objective sleep hours were inadequate, as follows: average total sleep time, 5.7 hours; sleep efficiency, 75.3%; sleep latency, 25.5 min; and awake time after sleep onset, 63.3 min. Linear multiple regression analysis showed that perceived sleep efficiency (β=-0.040), duration of diabetes (β=0.07), and BMI (β=0.13) predicted the value of HbA1c with 32.2% of variance. Conclusions: Subjective sleep quality was shown to be associated with glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. The results of this study suggest the importance of assessing patient sleep quality on managing glycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes. (Taiwan J Public Health. |
