In this study, we aim to investigate the association of serum uric acid (SUA) with the prevalence of premature ventricular contraction (PVC). The relationship between SUA and the prevalence of PVC in 98,965 subjects (79,034 male subjects, mean age: 51.9 ± 12.6 years old) in the Kailuan cohort study (n = 101,510, age range: 18-98 years) from June 2006 to October 2007 was investigated. These subjects were divided into five groups on the basis of their SUA levels. A multivariate logistic regression model was constructed to evaluate the association between SUA and the prevalence of PVC. The prevalence of PVC was 1.1% in all subjects, 1.1% in male subjects, and 1.0% in female subjects. Compared with the first quintile of SUA, the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of other quintiles were 1.33 (1.05-1.69), 1.14 (0.90-1.46), 1.37 (1.08-1.74), and 1.63 (1.30-2.06) in male subjects; 1.12 (0.68-1.87), 1.27 (0.77-2.09), 1.45 (0.90-2.36), and 1.33 (0.81-2.18) in female subjects; and 1.30 (1.04-1.61), 1.20 (0.96-1.50), 1.33 (1.07-1.66), and 1.57 (1.26-1.95) for all subjects. The correlation between SUA and the prevalence of PVC was significant in all subjects and in male subjects, but not in female subjects. We demonstrated that SUA was apparently associated with the prevalence of PVC. The significant relationship between SUA and PVC identified in male subjects suggests the potential involvement of a gender-specific mechanism. Prospective studies are needed to further corroborate our results.

Background: Previous studies demonstrated conflicting results about the association of sleep duration and hypertension. Given the potential relationship between sleep quality and hypertension, this study aimed to investigate the interaction of self-reported sleep duration and sleep quality on hypertension prevalence in adult Chinese males.Methods: We undertook a cross-sectional analysis of 4144 male subjects. Sleep duration were measured by self-reported average sleep time during the past month. Sleep quality was evaluated using the standard Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Hypertension was defined as blood pressure level ≥140/90 mm Hg or current antihypertensive treatment. The association between hypertension prevalence, sleep duration, and sleep quality was analyzed using logistic regression after adjusting for basic cardiovascular characteristics.Results: Sleep duration shorter than 8 hours was found to be associated with increased hypertension, with odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of 1.25 (95% CI, 1.03–1.52) for 7 hours, 1.41 (95% CI, 1.14–1.73) for 6 hours, and 2.38 (95% CI, 1.81–3.11) for <6 hours. Using very good sleep quality as the reference, good, poor, and very poor sleep quality were associated with hypertension, with odds ratios of 1.20 (95% CI, 1.01–1.42), 1.67 (95% CI, 1.32–2.11), and 2.32 (95% CI, 1.67–3.21), respectively. More importantly, further investigation of the association of different combinations of sleep duration and quality in relation to hypertension indicated an additive interaction.Conclusions: There is an additive interaction of poor sleep quality and short sleep duration on hypertension prevalence. More comprehensive measurement of sleep should be performed in future studies.
