TL;DR
Polysomnographically verified sleep disruptions were associated with prothrombotic changes and measures of sleep fragmentation and sleep efficiency were related to VWF and sTF, respectively.
Abstract
Polysomnographically verified sleep disruptions were associated with prothrombotic changes. Measures of sleep fragmentation and sleep efficiency were related to VWF and sTF, respectively. Apnea-related measures were related to PAI-1. Our findings suggest that sleep disruptions, even in a relatively healthy population, are associated with potential markers of prothrombotic cardiovascular risk.
