All complex survey regression models are adjusted for age, sex, Hispanic/Latino background, study site, work schedule, income, education, depressive symptoms, midsleep point, sleep duration, sleep medication use, and, for the diabetes incidence analysis, follow-up time as an offset. Significant p-values are marked in bold. Quartile 1—least regular SRI, Quartile 4—most regular SRI. BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; IRR, incidence rate ratio; OR, odds ratio.

*Prevalent diseases considered in this analysis were self-reported coronary heart disease, stroke, cancer, and chronic kidney disease.

 p-values for interaction from likelihood ratio tests.
