Objective
To examine the association between sleep duration and cardiometabolic risk factors among individuals with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes (n = 391).

Methods
Sleep duration was derived using a combination of questionnaire and objective heart rate and movement sensing in the UK ADDITION-Plus study (2002–2007). Adjusted means were estimated for individual cardiometabolic risk factors and clustered cardiometabolic risk (CCMR) by five categories of sleep duration.

Results
We observed a J-shaped association between sleep duration and CCMR – individuals sleeping 7 to <8 h had a significantly better CCMR profile than those sleeping ≥9 h. Independent of physical activity and sedentary time, individuals sleeping 7 to <8 h had lower triacylglycerol (0.62 mmol/l (0.29, 1.06)) and higher high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels (0.23 mmol/l (0.16, 0.30)) compared with those sleeping ≥9 h, and a lower waist circumference (7.87 cm (6.06, 9.68)) and body mass index (BMI) (3.47 kg/m2 (2.69, 4.25)) than those sleeping <6 h. Although sleeping 7 to <8 h was associated with lower levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, HbA1c, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, these associations were not statistically significant.

Conclusions
Sleep duration has a J-shaped association with CCMR in individuals with diabetes, independent of potential confounding. Health promotion interventions might highlight the importance of adequate sleep in this high-risk population.
