Subjective Poor Sleep Quality is Associated with Higher Blood Pressure and Prevalent Hypertension in General Population Independent of Sleep Disordered Breathing.

Prevalence of hypertension increased significantly from very good to very bad sleep quality groups (very good vs fairly good vs fairly bad vs very bad: 34.3 vs 42.6 vs 50.3 vs 58.5%) in total, in SDB (61.2 vs 68.3 vs 73.3 vs 75.5%) and non-SDB (26.8 vs 33.1 vs 40.1 vs 50.9%) participants (P for all <0.001). Average SBP also showed an increasing trend from very good to very bad sleepers in total (122 vs 125 vs 129 vs 128 mmHg), and in SDB (134 vs 135/ vs 137 vs 140 mmHg) participants (P for all <0.001).
