Resumen
Abstract We utilized the comprehensive sleep assessment of the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (2010–2013), a cohort of US White, Black, Chinese, and Hispanic adults and older adults (n = 1,736; mean age = 68.3 years), to draw 13 sleep dimensions and create composite Sleep Health Scores to quantify multidimensional sleep health disparities. After age and sex adjustment in linear regression, compared with White participants, Black participants showed the greatest global sleep disparity, followed by Hispanic and Chinese participants. We estimated relative “risk” (RR) of obtaining favorable sleep compared with White adults at the component level according to race/ethnicity (lower is worse). The largest disparities were in objectively measured sleep timing regularity (RRBlack = 0.37, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.29, 0.47; RRHispanic = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.52, 0.78; RRChinese = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.54, 0.90) and duration regularity (RRBlack = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.47, 0.65; RRHispanic = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.66, 0.88; RRChinese = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.61, 0.90) after sex and age adjustment. Disparities in duration and continuity were also apparent, and Black adults were additionally disadvantaged in % slow-wave sleep (N3), sleepiness, and sleep timing (24-hour placement). Sleep timing regularity, duration regularity, duration, and continuity may comprise a multidimensional cluster of targets to reduce racial/ethnic sleep disparities.
