Sleep Disturbance, Sleep Duration, and Inflammation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cohort Studies and Experimental Sleep Deprivation (2015, background): “Nevertheless, sleep diaries, actigraphy, and polysomnography from some large population and small-scale investigations have shown high correlations with subjective estimates of sleep duration (125,126).”
Sleep duration and mortality: a systematic review and meta‐analysis (2009, background): “…the epidemiologic evidence also indicates that long sleepers , generally defined as individuals who report sleeping more than 9 h on a typical night are also at increased risk of disease and death compared with average sleepers (Lan et al., 2007; Patel et al., 2004; Tamakoshi and Ohno, 2004).”
