• Sleep duration and mortality: a systematic review and meta‐analysis (2009, result): “…sleep showed a relatively small increase in all-cause mortality (RR: 1.10) compared with estimates reported for the known mortality risk factors such as obesity [RR: 1.27; (McGee, 2005)], cigarette smoking [RR: 1.78; (Khaw et al., 2008)], and physical inactivity [RR: 1.49; (Nocon et al., 2008)].”
• Obesity, Metabolic Syndrome, and Cardiovascular Disease (2007, background): “It is now well demonstrated that obesity is a significant independent predictor of CVR (5,6) and/or mortality (7).”
