Participant Flow

Participants were recruited from the general population using established methods via flyers across the OHSU campus, community bulletin boards, internet advertisements (ResearchMatch.com, OCTRI's research Data Warehouse, clinicaltrials.gov, Craigslist, Facebook-using lab or The Oregon Institute of Occupational Health Sciences accounts), and booths at community health fairs (see protocol for additional details).

Change in systolic blood pressure per hour of scheduled sleep period measured via automatic sphygmomanometer every 30 minutes across each of the scheduled sleep periods while participants stayed 7-nights and days in the laboratory. Sleep was scheduled to occur at varied times across the entire circadian cycle so that the effects of the circadian cycle can be ignored (i.e., averaged out).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days in the laboratory

Population: All participants who completed the in-laboratory study are included.

Systolic blood pressure was assessed manually via sphygmomanometry during each scheduled wakefulness period while participants stayed 7-nights and days in the laboratory. Behaviors during wakefulness were standardized and scheduled to occur across the entire circadian cycle. Any systematic circadian rhythmicity was assessed by analysis of variance which revealed the underlying amplitude of the circadian rhythm of systolic blood pressure while controlling for (averaging out) any ongoing behaviors.
