Total nighttime sleep on the night of the nap.

Fully adjusted mixed model included total nighttime sleep duration (hours from actigraphy), movement and fragmentation index (nightly actigraphy), age (years), race, gender, BMI (kg/m2), depression, mental status, bodily pain in the last 30 days (yes/no), cardiovascular disease at the year 6 visit (yes/no), self-reported respiratory symptoms (yes/no), self-reported diabetes (yes/no), times up each night, fatigue score. Only variables with a significance level of P ≤ 0.10 in univariate, logistic regression, or mixed-model analyses are shown here.

Units for continuous variables approximate 1 standard deviation; for dichotomous variables, the referent group does not have the characteristic.
