TL;DR
The data suggest that males with short sleep and females with long sleep were at an elevated risk of death.
Abstract
Our data suggest that males with short sleep and females with long sleep were at an elevated risk of death.

Results do not prove that mortality could be reduced by altering sleep durations or by reducing hypnotic prescribing, but studies are needed to determine the causes of these mortality risk factors.
