TL;DR
Usual sleep duration above or below the median of 7 to less than 8 hours per night is associated with an increased prevalence of hypertension, particularly at the extreme of less than 6 hours perNight.

Sleep debt has a harmful impact on carbohydrate metabolism and endocrine function similar to those seen in normal ageing and, therefore, sleep debt may increase the severity of age-related chronic disorders.

A sleep duration of 6 hours or less or 9 hours or more is associated with increased prevalence of DM and IGT, and voluntary sleep restriction may contribute to the large public health burden of DM.

The data suggest that the association between a reduced self-reported sleep duration and diabetes diagnosis could be due to confounding by BMI, or sleep restriction may mediate its effects on diabetes through weight gain.

837 Citations2001Alexandros N. Vgontzas, Edward O. Bixler +6 more
It is concluded that insomnia is associated with an overall increase of ACTH and cortisol secretion, which, however, retains a normal circadian pattern, consistent with a disorder of central nervous system hyperarousal rather than one of sleep loss, which is usually associated with no change or decrease in cortisol secretion or a circadian disturbance.

It is concluded that even partial acute sleep loss delays the recovery of the HPA from early morning circadian stimulation and is thus likely to involve an alteration in negative glucocorticoid feedback regulation.

Findings confirm previous findings that mortality risk in women is lowest among those sleeping 6 to 7 hours, and further research is needed to understand the mechanisms by which short and long sleep times can affect health.

The PMB recorder was useful for precisely evaluating the relationship between blood pressure and environmental factors and suggest that lack of sleep may increase sympathetic nervous system activity on the following day, leading to increased blood pressure.

The pressor response to sleep deprivation is not mediated by muscle sympathetic vasoconstriction or tachycardia, and sleep deprivation results in increased resting blood pressure, decreased muscle sympathetic nerve activity, and no change in heart rate.

This method of assessing medications was easy to use and provided estimates of exposure to drugs that may affect risk of cardiovascular disease and the prevalence of post-menopausal estrogen use differed significantly among the four clinical centers.

These results are indicative of changes in the HPA system in insomnia and may reflect a pathophysiological mechanism of chronic insomnia resulting in a vicious cycle of both disturbed HPA functions and chronic insomnia according to the arousal hypothesis of insomnia.

Results showed that subgroups, formed on the basis of presenting complaints and diagnostic criteria, differed in regard to the magnitude and direction of their sleep distortions, which appeared consistent with the types of objective sleep disturbances these subgroups commonly experience.
